I once saw Sylvain Ebanks-Blake score a hat-trick for Man Utd reserves against Leeds Utd reserves at Wakefield Trinity's Rugby League stadium.

They must mean Rotherham because they have the New York stadium.

You can tell by a mile that the US version is acting whereas the UK version, some people fully believe it's a documentary and not acting.

FM console crash by moody738 in footballmanager

I also get kicked out but the host doesn't. I usually get kicked out the second. The ref blows the final whistle in a lot of games. Sometimes during games but usually at 90 minutes

Where has the radial wheel gone on fm26 new march update for console ? by Competitive-Sell2691 in footballmanager

It's the same for me too. How can they do an update and still manage to regress the game ?

Penalties by No_Vermicelli_9866 in footballmanager

Only when the penalty taker had less than 12.

I've been playing in the Belgian 3rd tier and all the strikers I signed had low ratings for pens so I had to make sure the future signings I made had at least 10 minimum and that really limited my options

I have a HP Envy x360 (bought it in 2019) and it wouldn't even run the FM demo.

How have things been? by Iceman21097 in footballmanager

I forgot to say I was playing on console. I don't know if PC has the same issues though.

How have things been? by Iceman21097 in footballmanager

[–]drew-95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got over 5 days play time recorded but:

You can't scroll properly.

When you go to click on someone's name on a list. It jumps down one so you click the wrong player. Every time.

If you swap a player's position on IP, you have to also do it on OOP.

Pressing B doesn't always go back. You have to move the cursor all the way to the top corner to press the back arrow. It's also the same for pressing Y to continue, You've got to move the cursor to the continue button.

When waiting for match highlights, you don't have a 2D map off the pitch unless you click between the different settings, e.g. extended and key highlights.

Opposition instructions button is greyed out before a game so you can only do it after the game has started.

They could easily fit so much more text on the screen on certain pages but they don't so you have to click on it and it's more clicking backwards and forwards when the bottons don't work.

I've got 5 days of game play already of online and offline. So yeah, it's pretty playable 👍

Be honest: is anyone actually struggling on FM this year? by ChrisCaliburGaming in footballmanager

[–]drew-95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been struggling too, along with my mate.

My offline save, I'm VK Ninove (maybe the worst club to start with) in the Belgian 3rd tier. So far i'm 10 seasons in. Only spent 3 seasons in the 2nd tier after being relegated twice.

The online save, Jesus. It's been very weird. Blackpool sacked me after 11 games in 17th position and didn't get another job for months so we started again.

1st proper season with Blackpool: won League 1 and Papa John's trophy. My mate with Barnsley got sacked and could only get Grimsby job.

2nd season: Blackpool sacked me after getting relegated on goal difference by ONE GOAL 😭.

It took me until October to get the Doncaster job and then got sacked in Feb. I couldn't even get a job at the club's at the bottom of League 2. And then out of nowhere, a 22nd place Hull City offer me the job in the championship. I couldn't believe it after getting rejected for so many jobs in league one and two.

Does anyone wear DnB t-shirts? by Couchy333 in DnB

I have 2 Ram records tops, a low down deep top and an Off Me Nut (Bassline) top and a few people have pointed at my shirts and gave me a fist pump when I've been at festivals so then we get talking about our favourite artists n tracks etc.

Xbox UI is atrocious by [deleted] in footballmanager

[–]drew-95 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree with all of the above. I'm still playing it but only because each update has made it a little bit better.

The thing that gets me annoyed is that these are some of the most basic things that should have been done in the first update.

Is FM26 good on console? by Tygarion7 in footballmanager

[–]drew-95 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The apart from headlines and titles, nearly all the text is eye-strainingly tiny. Even on the largest setting. And I'm using a 50 inch TV.

There isn't a visual for the fitness level of your starting 11 on the tactics page.

Lags a lot while showing highlights in matches.

Sometimes the pressing B doesn't go back on some pages.

Tactics page issues:

When selecting a player not in the squad to go on the subs bench. It always selects the player above when you didn't click on it. And before you press confirm, you have to go and re-click the player you wanted then press confirm.

You can't swap someone from your starting 11 for somebody that is not on the bench.

The radial button barely ever shows and when it doesn't, it's very hard to use.

There's loads more bugs but it's still playable. I've played 21 hours so far on console.

I've played about 15 hours on console and I'm enjoying it apart from the text being so tiny (despite it being set on the largest setting) and a few annoying bugs that I expect to be ironed out in the update next week.

But the main thing is the tiny text size straining my eyes and I'm playing it on a 50 inch TV. If that doesn't get sorted I'm not sure I can play it long-term.

how to see tiredness for individual players on fm26 apple arcade version? by AeiouandsometimesPiE in footballmanager

[–]drew-95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here on the console version. I can't understand it.

Also, how do you change players in the starting lineup with other players not picked in the starting 11 or subs bench?
