It's a beta release, for crying out loud. Bugs are to be expected. That's the point of doing a beta release, so that large-scale issues are fixed in time for the general release.


This was supposed to be a full version without the online features IIRC.

As I see it, this was a perk for pre-ordering the game and now I've wasted 2 save games and a fair few hours of my time.

Found one bug where if you go on another team, then press your team name at the top, you go to your squad but the team you went to prior still has their name there

I was wondering the same thing... It is/was a great little feature.

Other than that and the tactics screen, I'm loving it, though.


Screen flow can be found in Preferences -> Profile -> Screen Flow.

It's been made clear from the first '2 week early' announcement that this was to be a beta. When you load up the game, it says BETA in a huge font on the start screen, most people realise that this is a beta version of the game. You could just chose not to play this and then update the game on release day and it won't have any major (and hopefully no minor) bugs thanks to this large scale test.

Also, for anyone finding bugs, could you post them up in the appropriate section on the official forums here and we can get these fixed asap.

Liking the training camp feature. Welcome change, be interesting to see the benefits of it to players though.

Also really like the ticker feature during games, has given me some invaluable information regarding tactics.

So glad they added a separate speed for highlights and general match speed.

Never understood why they took that option out a few years ago.

Just started a game with Arsenal - looking to bring in Yann M'Vila and Ronaldinho. I'm tempted to go in for Robert Lewandowski but he'll cost too much.

Dunno whether to start a game with Rangers or not.

My first FM/CM game has always been with Rangers, ever since I started playing it, but it will be fucking murder this time around..

I gave up doing that years ago. It took until 2012 for them to realise Scara Ngobese was dead.

Just crashed for me during my first pre season game against PSG after Young scored to make it 1-0.

It's infuriating when it happens, whether it's a beta or not.

Meh, when I pre-purchased the game it never said it would be in Russian without an option to choose English. Does anyone know how to change it to English?

Last year the one I bought was in English. Now I don't even have an option to buy an English version.

If you bought it through Steam, contact them and very politely explain how unfortunate it is that you have the Russian version and that you would like to get a refund. Steam doe not give out refunds typically, but I have seen evidence that as a one time courtesy gesture they will do it, so be polite and if you're lucky they will action it.

Once that goes through I will explain how we'll get you an English copy.

Can I get an English copy without the refund part?

Email them and ask. That's your best bet.

I highly doubt it. You are only allowed to get the copy you bought, it is region locked. It's a serious problem that Steam has. People on the SI forums won't help you and Steam will stick to their guns. Ask for a refund and then get back to me.

For the hour or two I played last night I thought the same, a lot of it however seems to be getting used to the new placement of some buttons.

The development and unwanted lists are fantastic ideas

Well, I guess if they eventually unlink the copy I bought, a UK proxy is my best bet.
