I only use text commentary. Tried watching games but a) I get impatient and b) my laptop kept overheating and switching off.

How long does it take most people to get through a season on FM12? Is it just me who watches games (or the highlights) at normal speed?
I watch highlights at just a bit faster than normal speed and I recon it takes about 12 hours a season give or take. |

In 11 I watch it in "TV Mode" and the quickest speed possible with no replays.
Each game takes about 5 mins I would say..

Just won the Championship of the Chamionship!
3 championships in 3 seasons, 40 wins 3 draw 3 losses, won the FA cup, scored 145 league goals with 40 against.
Matt Mills at CB scored 23 goals
Raheem Sterling on loan from Liverpool scored 13 as a winger with 48 assists! ave rating 8.23
Conor Wickham on loan from Sunderland scored 25 and 20 assists.
Simon Cox 44 goals and 14 assists.
Joe Lewis had 23 clean sheets.
Looking forward to the Premiership and getting the same players in on loan again, still only have £20mill budget though which isnt enough to get them on permanants.

You'll find it difficult to get players in on Loan in the prem, from other prem sides. |

I actually managed to sign Raheem Sterling from Liverpool for £5mill and Sunderland got relegated so offloaded Conor Wickham to me for £6mill, the only premier loan signing I have managed to get though is Federico Macheda from Man Ure. Signed Carlos Vela from Arsenal for £2.5mill just need to strengthen my defence now even though I havent conceded a goal in 7 pre season friendlies. |

I demand you all cease posting in this thread. I haven't had chance to play since the weekend because people keep working late in the office.

Started well in the Premiership, had some really good pre season results too, got the hang of this tactics editor at last! 4-4-2 with 2 DMC and 1 MC and 2 attacking wingers, good stuff!

I know its only a game and all, but can that really be enjoyable being so ridiculously dominant? Part of the fun of these back in the day when I played was tearing out your hair at going on bad runs etc. Maybe I am a masochist! |

i agree, losing is very important and winning 9-0 in the cup would soon get me bored. I like thinking shit better change my tatics or need a new player in the DM role |

Had my fair share of shit games on Fm, not on FM2012 though as yet but I enjoy winning games, as I do enjoy a challenge too, but its one of the first times I have been able to be so dominant so I am relishing it at the moment  |
