Let's face it

They have could done it better. Too many corners, shots missed, diving,
lobs, balls bouncing off the wall at freekicks etc. I got the feeling that
if you put your granny on the pitch, she would be able to send long accurate
ball or something like that. Strikers often pass defenders too easy, like
they're buried. There's too big difference in value of some players. For
egz. Alan Smith £10M, Fernando Torres £47M. You can see very few team or
player instructions you've set (on the pitch). Some players are too good,
but then again, we're used to it.
What do you think?

I started a game...played and fiddled for a week and put it back in the box
to continue with Rome: Total War.
When the patch came out, I installed it again, played and fiddled for a week
and went back to Rome: Total War.
This is the utmost worst thing I've ever written on the CM/FM-series. In the
past it was vice versa... I allways went back to CM... I'm allmost ready
with the Julii campaign on RTW and I'm convinced I'll start an imperial
campaign with the Brutii after that. I sincerly hope I'll turn back to FM,
but I'm not so sure like I was in the past...

to me the values above are very reasonable.
Smith is a yet to prove player, Torres is an idol not for sale, and La
Liga has the more expensive players due their obligation to have a release
contract clause.

Hmm... do wonders exist. After writing the above I felt guilt. Started a
scythian campaign, lost... started a game with Wales, Belgium,
Argentinia,Brazil and Holland and started a LlaMa with Helmond Sport. 3rd in
the league after 3 games...

It also depends on which league one has enabled. The players in enabled leagues always have a
higher valuation that those not.

I also have given up on the game. Got a *_'special'_* version of FM but after only one match
(Not game. Match.) on an online session, I have not touched it since. Gave up completely on 0304
a week ago when I finally got fed up with the AI. Most of all, I could predict results (just the
reason I tossed it in for CM3s) after the first 15 mins and predict all the moves the players
whether comp.teams or mine would make in a match. No exaggeration. Really all the moves.
I even tested myself by doing 'full match' with some on commentary only. Wrote down the moves on
a pad and replayed the match when it was over. And there they were, as predicted.

Forgot to add this is based on CM4 and 0304 though it does not seem there is much changed in this
regard for FM.
