Great game!

This is the best version of FM since 2012 (last great version).

Better than it's previous version, but still needs improvement especially the match engine. Opposition keeps scoring after a shot very often. Too many injuries during a match. You always dominate games no matter who is the opposition or tactic you use. After you complete your changes during a match very often you have a player getting injured. You know the usual things we never see getting fixed...

Once again SI failed to deliver a decent game. FM17 is actually a polished version of last year's game. Match engine is worse than ever. Goals often scored or conceded under 10' in a match. Opoosition scores a goal after a single shot on target. Opposition GK makes the best game of his life but still gets under 7 rating. Tactics don't really matter in a match. The game is design to cheat. Too many injuries during a match. I would suggest to people to STAY away fro this game. It's a waste of time and money. For those who have FM16 just update the transfers and stick to that.

I have been playing FM since the time it was Championship Manager. FM12 for me was the last decent version of the game. Since FM13, the game lost the magic and became predictable and boring. Despite the disappointing FM13, 14 and 15, i decided to give the game one last chance. FM16 unfortunately, is no different than 13, 14 and 15. SI once again, failed to deliver a decent game. Match Engine is once again full of bugs. For example, the opposition scores a goal after one or two shots on target very often.
Also, very often on the first minutes (under 10') of the game there is a goal (opposition or user's team). The opposition GK is a super GK. Anyway these are some examples to show how this game works. FM 16 is design to cheat.
Tactics actually have no real effect. In general the main problem with FM is that what rarely happens in real football, happens very often on this game. The game is more like a Hockey Manager. In a few words, FM16 is a polished version of the disappointing FM15. Except the transfer update, the rest of the features are pointless. No way to buy FM again. I would suggest to people NOT to buy FM16. Waste of time and money. Unfortunately SI will not fix it and in fact they don't really care since there's no competition. If there was a similar game to offer competition then SI would try their best. Until then, SI will just deliver a polished version of the previous year.

i ve been playing FM for so many years. After the last two disappointing versions (13, 14) i expected FM15 to be improved. I was wrong. FM15 is poor. The match engine is totally unrealistic. Its the same match engine like in FM14. The only improvement are the animations. Nothing else.
Not going to buy FM again in the future. This year was the last time. Enough is enough. Every year the game is released unfinished. I do not recommend FM15. Waste of time and money. Also the new menu interface is poor. If SI wanted to convince people not to buy FM15 they did it. Last, the usual STEAM issues are another reason not to buy any game that need the STEAM. Waste of money and time guys. Dont buy FM15. February and still FM15 is not fixed.
