New features that you expect in FM 2009

yea and hows about more in depth training?

_Man_u_barmy_army_ : yea and hows about more in depth training?

dont know, im not a 'training man'. thats why u have coaches =D

Ezekyell :I would like when I buy a player to have the option of making my bid public to the press.
And some improvements based on the differences between big teams and small teams... Sometimes, It just doesnt matter if you have the best team in the world, if youre playing with, I dont kow, Leicester against Manchester United or Arsenal, the chances of winning are almost impossible.

its quite like that in real life isnt it? i mean the difference between a big club now is massive. the 'top clubs' are much more better than smaller clubs. and i think they will be that for most of the time of football. if not they corrupt like nottingham or leeds or whatever.

but i can just say that even though as a 'smaller' club your chances are really slim to win against bigger teams. you can still win those matches. of course it takes for you to have 'some quality' and some really good tactics. and if u do things right then u will win some odd match.

of course at times its 'over the top'. i mean one of the best players in the game will easily score against a 'smaller club' or other stuff. and at times it does get really unrealistic. but then again its also realistic that you can cause many 'shocks'

i think what he is trying to say is that there is always a shock to many and the pace diff doesn't show in the game much

_Man_u_barmy_army_ : i think what he is trying to say is that there is always a shock to many and the pace diff doesn't show in the game much

thats good then isnt it?

no cause it only works if you are a big team a shock
but when smaller team it is impossible

i have to agree with "raydenvm", they should add those things mentioned plu some graphics such as:

1. Badges for EPL (english clubs):yes:yes
2. Real Competition names - Champions League, Premeir League,
Fa Cup, carling Cup and other...
3. Kits for EPL (english clubs):yes:yes

so that i do not have to w8 until these patches (kits and badges) come out and waste my playign tiem in downloading and fixing FM.

they should also include soem good skins (cuz the defualt ones are always crap)

just delete fake.inc for that mate

they have to entirely remake the youth system.its crap now.random players.just take a look at fifa manager.in general its a crappy game but the youth system is very good.SI should take a look at the youth system part of the fifa maanger.

and about the logos and kits....its very good that they are not in the game but only as patches because it would be a complete waste of hdd space.fifa manager is a game who has 4g of space and lots of pictures and kitts and logos but the game is crap(except for the youth system, of course).

Great discussion of future FM 2009 features can also be read here

yea quite a good blog you got there about everything + i think it should get most of the country licenses e.g japan, germany, and minor countries

minor countries??fm does not need the first division from san marino, luxembourg, lichtenstein and so on.it would take additional space for nothing imo.i really doubt that SI will ever sent scouts to those (and similar) countries.

no i mean national teams of them because i prefer to manage a undecent team. P.s sun look at p.m

In my current season, I concede many goals from throw-ins. Since there is an option to give attacking throw personal instructions, wouldn't it be good to be able to give instructions for defensive throws as well???

kcman1982 : In my current season, I concede many goals from throw-ins. Since there is an option to give attacking throw personal instructions, wouldn't it be good to be able to give instructions for defensive throws as well???

of course it would be, but how many usually do care about those things?

well if it happens in every 3rd game, it starts to bother you! And still, usually no-one cares about the attacking throw-ins, but there they are, left AND right!

So it wouldn't be a bad option.

Also, another feature, when you are in the match, watching the pitch, to have an option to change formation without going in the tactics screen, like of a shortcut to your saved formations.
