They’re going to win now. 😂

Middle out.

I’d re-arrange the order of the forks, knives and spoons in the cutlery draw.

Yep! They can’t ban them all!

It’s the risk we take when we field a B-team against lower level opposition. Not only are the players not as good as our first 11, but they’re also not used to playing with each other competitively on a regular basis.

I’m not mad though. Seems like an excuse, but it does mean we’ve got more time to rest players for the Premier League and Champions League.

They said they don’t want to do that because they’d be pulling resources away from the new game.

Also, by Sports Interactive just updating the old game, they will be admitting that they could just do that on a yearly basis, rather than releasing a “new” game with a few extra features.

I also think it’s not as simple as just updating assets. They’ve got official licenses for Premier League and all its clubs for FM25, and I imagine those licenses may be based on stipulations that they assets must appear in a particular way which matches the new game, not the old one. It’s probably too much work.

Not much to play for but hoping we can get the win anyway to secure top spot and 8 wins out of 8!

Absolutely! Apparently he did the same when he first started at McLaren and Mercedes.

Yeah it looked promising. Also a shame I never got to try it properly because it didn’t work for me from the start. Home timeline never loaded and errored out and I never got any kind of support response so gave up on it. Oh well.

(Also, hi Harry in the wilds of Lemmy. 👋😂)

But it’s called Star Wars Outlaws.

A full night’s sleep every night does sound good. I wonder what that’s like.

I can’t say I’ve been really into rallying, but i can’t look past the Subaru Impreza. It’s iconic.

Same! I used to play it a lot as a kid. A right throwback.

Can’t beat a bit of Colin McRae Rally 2.0. 😂

Looking forward to seeing more updates!

It’s at that point I’d start looking for a new job.

Baldur’s Gate 3 should win, but it won’t. It’ll be Zelda or Spider-Man.

A solid foundation to build on I’d say. Needs better optimisation as my GPU runs hotter than I’d expect. As far as I can tell there are still a lot of quality-of-life things missing that were in the first game via mods. I’ve only played it for a couple of hours though so far though.

Early game I’m getting 50-60 FPS @ 1440p on a 3070 and i7-12700K. Haven’t got to a high population point yet but I expect a drop as my city gets bigger.

Overall the playability is good so far. A few stutters here and there, and also some texture flickering. Not as bad as I was expecting from all the noise surrounding the game at the moment.
