Football Manager 2014

I love Football Manager as much as the next fiend but I don't get what everyones getting excited about. I can count on one hand the actual features they've listed. I don't see how bigger fan reactions, more news and a few tactical sliders takes a year to create. Maybe I'm just getting cynical in my old age.

Am I being trolled or are people genuinely happy with with these?

 

 

 
Improved Match Engine - they do this for free every patch.
 
Tactical overhaul - they update this for free every patch. Overhaul will mean a few new position names which you can already alter yourself and a few new sliders.
 
More realistic transfers and contracts - o.k
 
More sophisticated board interaction - great.
 
Improved interaction with players, staff and media - I now get to fine DIouf for 3 weeks and ask my assistant to speak to the press more, lucky us.
 
News system - incredible state of the art feature.
 
Enhanced user interface - best feature ever, now if we could only download new skins.
 
Football Manager Classic evolved - don't use it. Evolved probably means slower load times and more bugs on release.
 

 

 

 
NEW! New Player Roles 
There are 8 new player roles in Football Manager 2014: Half back, target flank man, limited FB, complete wing back, enganche, regista, false no.9, shadow striker 
 
You can already change the sliders to create these kinds of roles yourself so this is redundant.
 
NEW! Training Camps 
FM2014 will have training camps properly integrated into the training calendar, allowing you to fully manage your pre-season training. 
 
Is this seriously a feature? How dare they actually claim this as something to be excited about. For a start it should of been added in when training camps were. Training camps do f*ck all in the current version anyway.
 
NEW! Split Training Days 
FM2014 improves the training calendar allowing you to split single days into both Rest and Match Preparation.
 
Worthless.
 
NEW! Fixture Previews 
FM2014 adds regular news items previewing the next round of league fixtures 
 
Just what I always wished for, I'm in awe of this one.
 
NEW! Conditional Loan Repayments 
FM14 features more tranfer options when loaning players including conditional loan payments e.g "£500k repayable on promotion 
 
Finally something I might actually use twice a season.
 
NEW! Fixture rearrangement or postponement 
Football Manager 2014 Features the ability for you to request fixture rearrangement or postponement if a number of your players are unavailable such as being called up for international duty 
 
This was available 4 games ago and then taken out probably so they could add it onto this sh*t list.
 
NEW! Continental Qualification News 
FM14 features new and improved, streamlined Continental Qualification seeding news stories in your inbox before draws are made 
 
Haha.
 
NEW! Improved Shortlists 
FM2014 will allow you to retain full access to your shortlists regardless of which team managed or if you're unemployed 
 
Lol.
 
NEW! Referee Categories 
Football Manager 2014 features revamped referee categories, ensuring that the right level of ref is refereeing the correct matches 
 
Is this a joke? Shouldn't this already be the case?
 
NEW! Fan reactions 
New, improved and more realistic fan reactions to losses against vastly superior opposition in FM14 
 
When you're Oxford United and you lose to Chelsea your fans won't be devastated? Surely the fact that they were was a bug.
 
NEW! New stadium means increased attendance 
FM2014 will featre increased attendances for fixtures, including friendlies, at new stadiums 
 
Bahaha! Am I seriously reading this right?
 
NEW! Player suitability news item 
Player suitability for different roles will be delivered in one report to your inbox in FM2014, allowing you to quickly adjust your team when recieving backroom advice 
 
Should of been this way to begin with. They have the audacity again to call this a feature.
 
NEW! Press Conference for Stadium Enhancements 
New Press conference questions if stadium improvements or a new stadium request is granted or rejected by the chairman 
 
Great.
 
NEW! Regional Referees 
FM2014 will have a revamp the way referees work in Football Manager with specific regional refs, refereeing regional competitions such as the Conference North 
 
Great.
 
NEW! Congratulate player on international cap 
In Football Manager 2014 you can privately congratulate a player on winning their 1st cap or scoring their 1st international goal 
 
Great, I'll use this once a save.
 
NEW! Enhanced Finance Management 
Marker in financial projection graph to indicate where the club are in relation to the budget 
 
........
 
NEW! Shot Analysis 
You can now split the shot analysis page between first and second half shots for comparison in Football Manager 2014. 
 
Never really used it. I see they are trying to bamboozle us with volume.
 
NEW! Referees Retire 
Football Manager 2014 Referees retire and new ones appear. 
 
Great.
 
NEW! Train players as leaders 
In FM2014 you can train a player to develop into a leader. 
 
Genuine feature which should be useful. Not worth a new game though.
 
NEW! Clauses included in transfer budgets 
Your Football Manager 2014 transfer budget will now take into consideration all the clauses included in a transfer, not just the main fee. 
 
Minor change. Clauses should of been taken out of budgets from about CM 97/98
 
NEW! Where are they now in Transfer History 
The transfer history page in Football Manager 2014 now has a "where are they now" button, allowing you see how a player has progressed after leaving your club. 
 
I may use this twice a save.
 
NEW! Reprimanding Captains 
In Football Manager 2014 you can reprimand captains for bad behaviour and remind them that they should be more of a role model. 
 
Actually useful maybe twice a season.
 
NEW! Define favourite formation 
You can now define your own favourite formation when creating a new manager in Football Manager 2014. 
 
Useless.
 
NEW! Leak interest in job to the press 
FM2014 adds the ability to leak your interest in a job at another club to the press rather than just applying directly. 
 
Good for journeyman saves.
 
NEW! Make players available for youth squads 
Football Manager 2014 will allow you to make players available for the youth squads as well as just the reserves. 
 
Yawn.
 
NEW! Fixture list includes potential cup opponents 
When viewing your fixture list in FM2014 you will now see potential fixtures and opponents for future cup matches rather than waiting for the draw to be confirmed. 
 
F*ck off.
 
NEW! Assistant Manager takes control of training 
In Football Manager you can assign your Assistant Manager to take control of all the different aspects of training. 
 
Great.
 
NEW! Real time editor 
An official FM14 real time editor will be released for FM2014 allowing you to edit various aspects of your saved game, not just new games. 
 
Going to be a paid feature. The old editor was free. F*ck you.

 

 

Plus a load more worthless crap. Continue to endorse and encourage mediority. I'd prefer the few decent features listed and a MUCH faster game with less bugs and an updated player base for £10. The rest is just filler.

How to play 2 weeks before everyone else

 
Step 1: Order the game with this link: http://bit.ly/buyfm14-bonus
Step 2: Two weeks before it's actually released you'll get the game emailed to you ready for download
Step 3: Laugh at your mates who have to wait two more weeks, or give them the link as well and challenge them to a Vs Match instead
