Looking at their bug forum, they might not be bringing it back!

Well have to wait and see...

I think this is one of the beta bugs that si are working on fixing prior to release.

Another play off promotion! I will convert you all to my thinking eventually...

I bet the board are glad they didn't give you the sack afterall

Congrats on promotion! What's the plan now? See if double promotion is on the cards or have you got ants in your pants already?

Not rating this ref in the City v Barca game. Letting Digne get away with repeated fouls already and to me it looked like a penalty when Umtiti stood on Sterling's foot.

hi,

is there a way to download 1 pack for all the kits worldwide or do you have to download country after country?


For whatever reason, there is not a mega pack (which is what you're suggesting). So, unfortunately, you need to download the packs individually.

Another thing I've noticed is the change to what qualifies as an assist, whether intentional or not I don't know.

In previous FM versions a player would get an assist for any of the following, but are no longer:
1. Being the player to strike a ball before the opponent scored an own goal.
2. Being the player fouled before a team mate scores a direct free kick/penalty

Think there is another situation too but it has momentarily slipped my mind!

Another year, another FA Cup.

Many qualifying rounds have taken place already, but this weekend sees the first round proper.

I, for one, will be hoping that the non-league sides prosper. Including Kidderminster who take on Blackpool! Reasons best left unsaid in fear of litigation!

Here's the full first round draw!

Eastleigh v Swindon is live on BBC 2, with Mersetham v OIxford United and Southport v Fleetwood on BT Sport 1

Inter sack De Boer, so the fortunate win against Southampton didn't stay the axe too long.

Not sure if this bodes well for the return leg, but the problems at Inter go much past the manager I think.

Not too bad actually so far.


Yeah, that game was much better than I was expecting!

Just heard, Bony has only scored 8 goals since leaving Swansea...4 of which are against Swansea!

The sub stats seems to be working now, must have been part of the 17.1 patch?

Another Stirling start for the British Steelers, should call it British Stirling!

I'll book myself for that bad joke.

Anyways, best of luck with this! You should at least do better than @Shedender

I never understand why a club of the size and support of Sunderland always do so badly. I'm confident that it must be a managerial thing, so best of luck in saving them from their destiny!

That as a hell of a play-off final! Congrats on the promotion. Told you it was more fun to go up via the play-offs

Best of luck this season.

Maybe it would also help if kitmakers just stuck to one league at a time rather than taking on multiple ones...

Don't like that the stats box between highlights doesn't replace the substituted player with the subsitute in the list, meaning you have to try and scroll to see their stats.

Also, had a match where it was stuck on "cancel pending changes" even though I had changed my mind and not made any changes. Wouldn't let me click on the cancel button so had to play the rest of the match unable to make substitutions or tactical changes!

Can't say the same here so far. Found it very enjoyable. Only had a quick play as Blackpool, mind.

What in particular seems to be the issue?

Is the BETA available right up until release?


How do you mean? If you have the BETA you can play it up until release when they'll just update it to the release version.

@emildebski85 made the last lot, and the last I saw he was asking for monetary contributions to make them again for FM17. Don't think that went to well for him on this forum, not sure if he decided to make them again or not.

The 16 edition doesn't seem to fully work on FM17, there are hairstyles and beards that don't line up correctly.

A lot of goals being scored direct from free kicks in my game so far... only pre-season played though.

Sunderland.

Please let this be the year they're finally relegated and (hopefully) never return.


Them and Hull have to be favourites to go down. Can't pick a third though.

Just curious really, who gets the England job in your game?

Camacho in mine.

Is it the same for most or is there a good variety?
