Potential returning player

Hi

I think it has been some 5+ years since I played FM. Have a few questions, hope I'm in the right forum.

I used FM Scout to create myself as a wonderkid, playing for my local lower-league team. I then manage myself (!) for a short period before the bigger clubs grab the wonderkid, and the aim is to get promoted as manager until I can take over managing my wonderkid alter again.

Can I still do that? When is the game out (how long to wait for pre-purchase)? Will it work on a 2015 MBP?

Thanks!

Looking at the specs, I'm clear about all except the graphics card.

Details that I follow are: Catalina 10.15 with i5 8GB RAM and 100GB+ space.

The graphics I have is "Intel Iris Graphics 6100 1536 MB". I have no idea how that compares with:

Intel GMA X4500, NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT or AMD/ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650 – 256MB VRAM macOS 10.14 and later requires Metal API: Version 1 macOS 10.13 requires OpenGL: Version 2.1

You’ll be fine, although you’ll need to use lower graphics quality as you don’t have a dedicated graphics card. I’ve got a 2013 MacBook and played FM20 fine, albeit on low graphics quality and mainly the 2D match viewer. Heating is the big issue in Macs so if you use too high a setting, the fans will go into overdrive!

Well, I've signed up.

Hopefully get time to play and familiarise myself with all the new features!
