The improvements look better this year than last imho. I do buy it out of habit....but always end up looking forward to it once I've pre-ordered.

The players and even the way the ball acts are better this year by the looks of it. IIRC even the height and weight of players are taken into account in how they play/react on the pitch.

It looks better - but as always I guess the proof of the pudding is in the eating.

If anybody doesn't want to pay the full price for it FM is always in the Steam January sale at half price....I'm just impatient and each year it's the only game I ever pay full price for.

Looking forward to seeing the new UI and see what kind of budget Cellino will give me in the first transfer window. Perhaps I can buy a couple of wingers!!

Hope it is out tomorrow...better get a good nights kip tonight...could be a long day in front of laptop tomorrow !!!!!!!

Cheers - spent most of Friday playing a game as Leeds whilst working from home that day. I like the new interface and some of the new features. Took a little getting used to but overall a good little step forward. Some things that hopefully are just the Beta version glitches, like the number of yellow and red cards - which is ridiculous. Also, the animation/graphics on match day seem to depict all championship stadiums as rusting hulks in eastern bloc housing developments. Surely it wouldn't have taken too long to get an accurate representation of the actual stadiums.

Agreed with everything you said there. Why have stadiums that look this way?

A good step forward overall - the kicking from keepers and strikers is far more realistic and varying between players.
