#707648 Stato Skin FM23 Full Release
StewartyMac
It's a lovely skin so long as you're not playing as a team who wear predominantly black, as the team and player names are invisible, as they are written black on black.
#707013 NARIGON Skin 23 (Final FM23 version) V1.30+No Hidden Atributes
StewartyMac
No, not working for me either, and I'm not uninstalling the game and re-installing, thereby losing all my other graphics packs, just for the sake of one skin, no matter how nice it looks.
#208050 FM15 BETA Release Beta Feedback Thread
StewartyMac
Was he under pressure? There's a new addition to the match engine this year where both you and the opposition can tell your forward players to put pressure on the keeper so he can't distribute it short. Could be that.
As for the game itself, although much of the UI is an improvement, the tactics screen and the ingame quick sub screen is a complete disaster. FM14 had that part of the game nailed perfectly, why they had to change it to something so utterly cumbersome is beyond me, it's putting me off the entire game, which is a shame, as most of the rest of it has been spot on so far.
#20176 This ME is TERRIBLE
StewartyMac
How DARE SI bring out a game where you actually have to work at building a team. Shame on them.
The ME is fine this year, bar a couple of minor glitches which will be ironed out, in fact it's probably better this year than it has been for many incarnations of the game.
#19158 Match View Settings
StewartyMac
I've never really tried it myself, but you do have the option of what appears in between highlights. It shouldn't be too hard to manipulate it to show player ratings in between I wouldn't have thought. Have a play around, you can't break it.
#19152 So what's everyone's take on the new game?
StewartyMac
The match engine has been great for me. Nowhere near as predictable movements or passes or goals than in previous versions. In one game, my keeper raced out of his goals (not straight on, sorta towards the left touchline) line, then just had to stop when he realised the winger was getting there first. Winger simply lobbed the ball from the wing and it crept in. Despite being annoyed at losing a goal in this way, I had to respect the ME for the whole move, that wouldn't have happened in other versions. I also like the way the wind can dictate where the ball goes. I've had keepers kick the ball out and it get nowhere near the halfway line as they're playing into the wind.
Fantastic game.
#19148 Wins that make you say "YES"
StewartyMac
Away to runaway league leaders Bath City. A backs to the wall, rigid, defensive line up, and it's 0-0 after 86 mins...
Enter substitute Jake Harris, on loan from Newport, who skins the defender and unleashes an unstoppable drive from 10 yards out.
This happened to me last night, and I gave the missus the fright of her life when I yelled 'YASSSSSSSSSSSS' at the top of my voice.
"He thinks it's real" she was overheard in conversation some time later...
#18109 is it me or is FM 13 really, really hard?
StewartyMac
This.
The two games I've started since it came out have both already been more enjoyable than any save I had on FM12. I actually feel as though my decisions make a difference, rather than stumble onto a winning formula by chance.
Love this game to bits at the moment.
#17960 is it me or is FM 13 really, really hard?
StewartyMac
Could it be that in this version, you actually have to use a bit of skill
RIP Corner Glitch
#16419 Trouble downloading from Steam.
StewartyMac
Ok, first of all, is the full copy of your game a download, or have you ordered the boxed game from a retailer?
If it's the latter, you'll have to input the code from the back of the instruction manual into Steam. I also found out earlier I needed the disc complete the whole installation contrary to advice I'd had before. Without the disc in the tray, it'll stick at about 81% install.
#16222 Clicking match results.
StewartyMac
Good to see you've given it a chance!
#15946 Clicking match results.

Of course, this is no use in your own league as you have to be 'subscribed' to that.
It's something they either need to change, or an option has to go into preferences to switch it on/off. Given you can get round the problem in other leagues by unsubscribing, I wouldn't have thought this would be a massive task for the developers.
#15539 Beta to Full Release!
StewartyMac
Brilliant, thanks for this.
#15498 Beta to Full Release!
StewartyMac
Is this also the case for people who have pre-ordered the disc version for the full release, rather than just a download.
I d/loaded the Beta with Steam last week, and have a decent save going just now. When I get the disc through tomorrow, and pop it in the tray, am I going to have to install the whole thing again from the disc? Therefore losing any save games I have now? Not sure how that'll work.
