Ive bought all versions of FM bar 2014, and had mixed feelings about the new gestures system. Having played a few matches, I still feel its a bit take it or leave it and over hyped. its tthe same with percentages being replaced with visual icons. Theyre such minor changes that I could happily live without.

That being said the engine changes are great on my old warhorse (i7 2600K at stock spreed with 16GB and a nVidia1060 6G) 14 leagues from 8 nations is down half a star to a 3 star rating this year but saving and loading a game is over 50% faster compared to FM20, and while creation and processing are faster theyre not quite as noticeable, although, netflix pauses on 2nd monitor while playing and calculating results are significantly shorter so it may be demanding a little less of the processor too.

The significant change for me is the 3D match engine, its a solid improvement over last year, the anims are much much more seamless and it feels so much more intelligent. Personally i always enjoyed the matches but this year the engine actually draws you in and can make you feel more invested in certain players because the ai has improved and the animation is that much better. Honestly i dont think words can do it justice, if you enjoyed the match engine before, it will feel a significant enhancement.

My opinion is that Miles and SI misstepped in focusing on gestures so heavily, the under the hood changes are far superior. If you enjoy the match engine and arent blasting through the seasons I think this is absolutely well worth your money.


While im here, not sure if ive commented before on the matchboards, so id like to say a big thank you to yourself and anyone else involved.
