Simplified Version of Football Manager ??

brianregan09

Basically I used play this religiously back in the day right up to FM2014 all the way back from CM2 , and I feel it ridiculously complicated

I still love the idea of FM though I'm just wondering is there a more simplified version of the game available for PC maybe that plays like the best one I think may have been championship manager 2001/2002 or so I can't remember but ya

What would be the best course of action and old game with updates or what ? any help would be great

wow, I never heard about this. Are the updates including lwr division teams and free agents etc or just Premiership teams

The new versions of FM also have a "Classic Mode" which is less complicated. I've never actually tried it though so I'm not sure how close it is to the Champ Manager days.

The updates are superb. Big community over there. Well worth your trouble.

Lower divisions in Spain, England, Scotland. Every league playable really,.

I had it on my last pc and loved it, they also have a good collection of programs to help in the game.

I play the classic mode in FM 13 which I find way more enjoyable.

I think I may have to re-invest in the FM series as I found them too time consuming, never realised there was a classic mode

this is interesting. so fm16 has a classic mode? how do i access it? found a lot of too complicated, especially on match days with tactics and i dont know how to watch games with just commentary like i always used to


Ok just started a Touch/Classic game. I downloaded some additional leagues but cant seem to find option to add these to a Touch game from the start.. Any thoughts?

For commentary only on matches, while in the match screen there's an options button on the top right in the shape of a little star. Turn off the highlights or whatevers your preference and then just click "pitch" (top of screen between overview and tactics) and click "split". That's how I have it and looks like the old games!
