Anyone bought it?
I haven't bought one for a while and am very very tempted. But...was looking at steam and there are so many terrible reviews....

Yeah I will get it, just waiting so far.

Same here, I usually wait until it goes on sale in the winter.

Bought it.

Pros: It looks good. And once you get used to the changes in the interface, they help.

Cons: May need serious patching. I've been racking up hockey scores. 8-4. 7-2. 6-3.  :huh:  :showoff:

That's the other reason why I always defer purchase until later into the season; the game always comes very buggy out of the gate - which is sort of understandable given the ultrashort development cycle.

Yeah, I've read that is a major problem.

One thing I was really hoping for is for them to sort out the match engine and have your players behave in a way that actually looks like a real football game. It seems like they didn't put any effort in there though.

It's not just that. The ball physics seem a bit odd at times too.

It has evened out with the scores throughout the season. Players who were on fire early on have faded, and struggle.

It's hard to measure FM 15 up against the previous versions, but I am enjoying it a fair bit. Don't like the microtransactions though.

What Microtransactions does it have?

I always find defenders have been too eager to kick the ball out for a corner in most games.

Buying an ingame editor, extra transfer money. You pay for cheats.

Josquius

Well that sucks. I recall the fan-made ingame editor in the previous games was quite useful for fixing incidences where the game was a bit off.
