    UPDATE 13.1.3 RELEASED for Football Manager 2013


    As some of you may have already noticed, there is a new update for Football Manager 2013 now available. Included in this update are a number of changes to the match engine along with fixes addressing other areas of the game.

    As with all updates it is save game compatible and you will be able to continue your save game. To update you will need to close the game down and re-launch for it to update. If this does not work for you or you feel it has not updated you will need to restart Steam.

    Once updated the version number will be 13.1.3, more specifically the full version numbers are listed below:

    PC: 334797
    Mac: 334795


    As with the previous update there are no database changes, if you start a new game the database number will remain 13.0.0.

    A changelist is included in the post below.

    Do please bear in mind if you’ve posted an issue in the bugs forum and it hasn’t been addressed in the changelist this does not mean it’s been ignored. We have to make certain that any fix those goes in does not have consequences elsewhere, so the changes so far have been limited only to very important issues which could be thoroughly tested before release.

    We very much hope you continue to enjoy playing Football Manager 2013 with this latest update. Thanks.​

Wow. SI really have worked their socks off on this. Kudos
 
Read through the list, didn't see anything about them fixing players determined to shoot from a dead angle instead of passing/crossing. I'm so tired of players running diagonally towards goal, angling out away from the keeper and shooting when they would have to break the laws of nature in order to score.
 
Just waiting for the countless amounts of people saying 'were i dwnlod i hv pirat vrsn wat to do/'

I'll go with a less retarded question, but one that still might be slightly stupid: Does Steam have to be online for the update to be downloaded? As in, can I have Steam in offline mode and still get the update?

You will have to ensure you're online

You must be online to download it, and also to let it run first time after the update to complete a tiny installation

Yeah, you have to make sure to be online for the update to work/download.

Not a retarded question and at least yours isn't pirated! :D

Probably related to the crossing, so the fixes to do with those may fix players doing this.

This was merely a knock- on effect of other issues that hopefully had been fixed , hence it's not in the list being an effect and not the cause.
 
Interesting. I've managed to play 2 games so far, scored a total of 6 goals, all of them OG's. Coincidence? :)
 
When Steam was doing the update, my antivirus say that there was a corrupted file in the Steam folder. When I try to launch the game appears a message say'in that "the game is unavailable (corrupt game files)".

Anyone has the same problem? Know how to fix? =/

go to steam, right click on FM, go to properties. click local files and verify game cache
 
Thanks for your answer. I've already uninstalled it. I'll install again and see what happens. Thanks!
