Once you buy the game on steam it should automatically download. Only certain retailers have beta access though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
esquire8 42,379 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 How's everyone found the beta so far? Apart from the daily saves for the amount of crashes that happen I think it's actually one of the most smooth betas they've ever released. Still trying to get my head around the training but hoping someone cracks it and releases a download for it. Match engine is silky smooth but still has it's kinks that can be worked out. The tactics are fantastic now, starting with a base and evolving it over the friendlies etc is far more rewarding. This has been a major pain for me since 2012 but thankfully seems to have got it right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still the odd one mind u. Wish I could but I've only got a 1366x768 monitor. It's ok when I hook it up to the tv for 1080 I can put it in windowed then but for normal play it has to be full screen. Not had many crash dumps, if they do happen it's on silly things like confirming training or changing staff responsibility. Far gone from the 2010 beta where every day had a crash, back then you really were the test dummy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that Eduard is a wonderkid and Tierney goes for that amount, screams of the taig researcher and taig loving Scottish researcher over rating them again. Might have to scale them down in the editor as well as bumping us up. If I was you though I'd report that as a bug, since they'd have to look at that before the game comes out.

It's weird in FM17, he would go for big bucks but in FM18 they seemed to calm it down. I had a game 10yrs in and he was still at celtic. Obviously back to being over-rated this year it seems.

aird 3,770 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Got a save where the guy has holidayed 100yrs The SPFL does not look good. Since 2011/2012 celtic have won the league every year apart from 2064/65 season when we won it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Specky Forum Organiser 64,475 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 This is from FM18 but am not caring it needs posted, 3-1 down on aggregate with 25 minutes to go of my play off semi final and this happens...Samu Saiz is my hero.

The Specky Forum Organiser 64,475 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Beat Sheffield Wednesday 4-2 in the final to get promoted Came 6th in the league so didn't expect to win it at all.

esquire8 42,379 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Keep an eye out lads on your tactics you used on the beta, match engine has changed with the full release and alot of killer tactics and now rendered useless. Counter attacking quick play seems to be the way to go now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the release today I've shifted to a far more defence minded and getting 2-0,3-1 etc . 4-4-1-1 with a poacher and a wide target man are doing the job for me.

On the beta I played a 4-4-1-1 counter and won my 1st Europa game 14-0 Only signed Alena on loan from Barca and Xadas from Braga. Two class players hopefully still available on the full release.

philiprfc 1,799 Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 I got the beta ages ago but between RDR and AC I never got into it. Have started a game with us in the last few days.

Has banged in 18 goals by November for me. Having to fight off major interest from Leverkusen and Everton now. Luckily I have Joveljic and Gronli to cover if he does go.

All I've got are pressing forwards, it's pure no working haha. Lafferty is my top gs with 13 in March. Shocking man. It's a pain in the cunt cause I hit the woodwork at least 2 times a game or my attacker canny lose their man in the box and it gets deflected away.

I've hardly played Lafferty, if you can screenshot your tactics and I'll have a look. I try make sure by October I've got 3 tactics to rely on so that the other teams can't figure me out.

ready1873 3,872 Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Started a season with Queens Park. Finished 2nd in the Betfred Cup group with Hamilton, Airdrie, Berwick and Edinburgh, winning all bar a 4-2 loss to Hamilton. No played it in years but can feel myself getting hooked already ?
