Just a heads up for you guys who, like me, still think they can afford to waste approximately half of their life on this bloody game. If you get the game from here http://www.greenmangaming.com/s/gb/en/pc/games/sports/football-manager-2013/ now you get to play the beta which I believe is pretty much the full version and it continues your game when the official game launches on 2nd November. |

I am not overly impressed with it, it looks like a new skin/menu system and a couple of new additions.
Not really any improvement on last years offering. 5/10.

done pre season and played a couple of games, the 3d enginei think has improved a lot once again, even on my shitty slowed down heap of junk laptop the movement was quite smooth.

I have to be honest and say I see no improvement in the 3d match engine whatsoever, it looks identical to FM2012, the only difference I see is the concrete textures look darker, the actual animations of players, crowd and ball movement and everything else looks identical to me.
All settings are set to high and 1920x1080 resolution as they always have been and I just don't see any improvement at all.

I usually only buy FM every other year, because often the changes in game play from one year to the next are negligible.

Same here I only usually bother when there are significant changes made. |

I did the code offer from Greenman so only cost £19, which is good value for the database changes etc they have to do to keep it up-to-date.
Getting some stupid goalkeeping mistakes but once that's fixed it should be a good'un.

Well as we know FM is actual real life and I'm the new Town manager. Brought in George Francomb from Norwich for £110k and signed German defender Marcel Eger on a free so far.
Currently played 5, won 3, drawn 1, lost 1. Also beat Brum 4-1 at home in the cup!
Just got beat 3-1 by Scunthorpe with Bedwell in nets as Wes is out for 2 months!
Interestingly Celtic have signed Charlie Charlie Austin for £4.3 mil with us getting £80k now and £450k over the next 48 months...

Is it worth preordering to download the beta version? Are there any restrictions on the beta version or is it just that you can only go so far?
