@owlstalk Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 FOOTBALL MANAGER 2018 Ok I'm now totally addicted to this. After a slow start falling in love with it and really struggling to get any success with Sheffield Wednesday, I've dropped down to the lowest league possible and started with Salford FC, utilising Jos's tactics and formation and am currently sat top of the league in January. I can't get anything like that as boss of Sheffield Wednesday though? Just get absolutely hammered every match Anyone else playing this edition? How you finding it as Sheffield Wednesday? Any success? Football Manager 2018 - http://amzn.to/2GSLQum Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Snooty Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I think that viruses should be written into the programming of these sorts of games so that no matter what you do, what you spend, whatever tactics, whatever league or club, you always lose and finish bottom. These games have created a monstrous generation. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post steelcityowlsfan Posted March 1, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 1, 2018 There’s a cheat code for this that keeps your players fit for the season avoiding most injuries. Just enter MEGGOGRENO11 and you’ll have the fittest team in the league and have very little injuries for the rest of the season. You’re welcome 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brett11 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Tend to avoid being Wednesday on any game as I find I have my favourites whether they are decent on it or not. Would rather be another side and pick a couple of Wednesday lads to suit the team or league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JanikowskiSWFC Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I got FM17 Touch just before FM18 came out and i'm pretty happy with it. Got Wednesday promoted and won the FA Cup in my first season after being the evens favorite to be sacked in January. May do a National League side next as one of my mates say it's a big challenge.

What, bloody boy scouts! A proper scout wouldn't know how to turn a computer on, much less spend 17 hours in a dark room staring at a computer monitor watching a brain melting screen of made up results. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is it? (in kid language) FM Touch is basically a simplified version of FM where press interaction is minimal and you can sim through games faster. The Full FM is better if you're seriously into Youth Development (as you have a full reserve team whereas in FMT you have a combined reserves) and if you're really into giving team talks and doing pre-match press conferences every game. It isn't for everyone i'll say that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lukestheman82 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I'm doing really well with Wednesday. 3Rd seaon in and in the Prem and in the Europa League. Wildsmith, Venanceo and Jack Hunt are still first team regulars, George Hirst is turning out to be poop. My best cheap buy...Roland Sallai.

I found this: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/football-manager-touch-2018/id1239862001?mt=8 Slightly more expensive than the Google Play version for some odd reason. If you want to play FM on Mobile this is the way to go (FM Mobile is rubbish in my opinion), but your device may not be compatible with it as I know you can't get it on most Android devices. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanharper Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I think Chansiri did that thing after the play offs where you're doing really well but then you switch the game off and then everything goes against you when you play it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
