Cheers everyone

Due to heavy work load and having twins last year, i have not been able to buy FM26. Well, ofcourse i would have if the reviews had been decent. But yeah.. ;).

So my question: Is it worth buying now? Has the biggest issues been fixed with updates, or is it still below average compared to FM24?

Give me your thoughts :).

Regards
It depends on what issues you might consider a deal breaker. Surely the game is at a better state after numerous patches, and there are certain addons (such as MrTini's skin for example) which help to feel better about the new UI.

FM26 is currently on sale at the lowest price it has been so far, therefore it might be a good time to take the plunge.
I would say it is getting better. I don’t really like the UI, but you can get used to it.

I’m not a fan of the full-screen zoom option, as I prefer to see more information on my screen at once.

I don’t do as much scouting as I did in FM24. Searching for players is frustrating because the available views are limited, which means you have to click around a lot.

I mainly focus on the matches, and they are more enjoyable to play than in the previous version. Not because of the graphics, but probably because the tactical approach can be adjusted in much greater depth than before.
