Suarez wanted an agent fee of 15m and Chiellini 16m to join Arsenal lol. Nuff said indeed.

Oh, not to mention the 40-50k appearance fee's etc. Top game.
 
- Defending is terrible, they dont bother to tackle or intercept the oposition players at all
- Which again leads to a ridicilous amount of long shots, not to mention most of them go several yards wide of goal

Sadly the ME makes this unplayable for me atm
 
i cant get my strikers to score. and my away form is a joke. koscielny is my too scorer with 4. strikers are giroud and lewandowski and they have 0 between them
 
My players can't even finish their dinner. Blazing over from 6 yards 90% of the time
 
falcao cannot score one goal and the price of the player are to high ! when si will correct that **** ? on fm 13 benat to get him u need between 25 & 30 millions ! in real they bought him for only 8 M€........they really need to put the price down for player becaues this is abused
 
The demo plays fine in my opinion.

Is final release really that different?
 
I'm Arsenal, and these are my first 5 games, watching the game on 'Extended':

- Southampton (H): 2-2. I got in 65% possession, 10+ shots on goal, hit woodwork FOUR times. They scored from a corner and a Benayoun free-kick in the 92nd minute.

- PAOK (A): I'm up 3-0 and it's the 15th minute. NO HIGHLIGHTS until late into second half (70th minute). They get in 3 goals one after another after Gibbs gets sent off with a straight red. Ends 3-3.

- Stoke (A): I get beaten 0-3. The entire game was just Arsenal highlights, with goal-line clearances, Begovic making wonderful saves, and Ozil/Giroud/Cazorla missing sitters each.

- PAOK (H): 0-0. I end up winning but had to do it through AET penalties. Embarrassing for a club like Arsenal with world-class players playing at HOME.

- Man City (A): Straight loss 2-0. Massive barrage of shots from city, none of my forwards closed anyone down (even though I set them in-game to tight marker and close down). I had 10 shots with 8 OFF TARGET, was a ridiculous match and was completely out-classed, even with a midfield trio of Cazorla / Wilshere / Ozil with Carlos Vela coming in for Giroud. Looked like complete amateurs.

Deleted my save afterwards.
 
Tried starting a Liverpool save instead. Playing with this:

Mignolet
Johnson - Sakho - Agger - Enrique
Lucas - Gerrard
Sturridge - Coutinho - Insigne
Quagliarella
​

(Suarez is banned)

Completely destroyed Hull away in my opening match, winning 4-1 with Quagliarella hat trick on his debut. My CBs had great ratings, my fullbacks had average (6.8 or so).

Second match, Crystal Palace home. Should be an easy win, but I lost 3-1. My entire defense was terrible, my fullbacks were the worst. Midfield & attack ratings were mostly on the lower side of average (6.0-6.5) except for Sturridge who had scored the one goal. So I decided to try something, and quit/reload & play the match over. Second time was a 1-0 loss, third time 0-0 draw, fourth time 2-1 loss, fifth time 1-1 draw.

Out of five times there is no way my team shouldn't be able to beat Palace at home at least once. I really hope it's not my tactics, because 4-2-3-1 is a favorite formation of mine that worked extremely well in FM13, plus Liverpool is already pretty suited to that formation from the start. But at the same time it's extremely frustrating if that's just how the game is right now, I would have rather waited another couple weeks for the game if it meant all these bugs would be fixed.
 
Since the new patch my team seem to go 2 or 3 goals up and then quickly concede 3 or 4 goals to lose the match, Was winning 2-0 = 24 minutes in and the other team scored 4 goals in 8 minutes - 4-2 by 32 minutes gone! Similar thing has happened in last 5 matches after storming the first 5 months of the season.
 
Every match has at least 7 goals & 2 penalties. Even my Under 21s and 19s that I dont watch. If you dont set your full backs to hard tackle then they just watch the wingers run past them and if you do they get sent off.....I have tried this with Chelsea, Arsenal & Southampton and its all the same! Gonna wait for the next patch before I continue it's a joke!
 
Can't actually believe how buggy this game is, really ridiculous,was less buggy 2 years ago.
 
Feeling somewhat vindicated in my decision to hold off on my purchase after what I saw with FM 13 - Great game now, but I couldn't play it until the January update because of the match engine being retarded.

Seems to be the case with the FM14 release as well; will still buy it but only after some more patches, saves a lot of frustration!

PS - Question for those who do have the game...From what I've heard, there's no longer player instruction options for a lot of things? Have SI dumbed down the tactical element? oO)
 
to be fair...half the time i played gk i had to anticipate the shot. i was diving in the air as soon as the ball was coming off the boot.

Is it just me or do Gk's react the exact instant the shot is hit? no wonder it's hard to score when the GK's are pulling off some matrix ****, how is it even possible to have reactions this quick? as soon as my player hits the shot the GK is on the ground ready to save it well before it hits him it's incredible.

Spend ?2M on transfers and lose ?14M from your budget, the ****?

Why do our players fall over all the time? feels like I'm watching a team made up entirely of the worst divers from Spain and Italy.

I find it absolutely ******* hilarious that the very first beta was more refined than the released game, this game is now like an alpha instead of the full game because SI are going backwards, how is this even possible? everytime they release a patch to fix stuff the game becomes more and more like an alpha release.

I have to give SI a ton of credit though for consistently defying logic, it surely isn't an easy thing to do.

I bought FM2013 and felt ripped off, barely played it so ?35 down the spout and FM2014 is now giving me the same feeling, people say they will patch it and all that **** but no they don't, they patch it a couple of times and fix some things while breaking others then stop working on a game they continue to **** up.

I'm 100% definitely going to download every FM game from here on out, no way in **** do SI deserve another penny from me and people talked **** about EA being a bad company, man if EA are that bad what words can you use for SI?

Just lost 2 goals because my RB runs to the opposing player but does nothing, lol? I honest to god would love to know how stuff like this makes it into a released game.

And what do you mean by that I wonder? Contradiction much?
 
Lolz. I've had to instant result pretty much every match because watching the games had me spitting on my laptop screen.

The same has happened for last few releases.

A half finished game that get patch after patch with tactics going from fantastic on one to **** poor on the next.

Either SI should release a more polished version of the game on release day or people need to learn to wait till after January for the final patch before buying. My friends do that now but FM is the only game I play so I always get it first.
