Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***
Oof! I also started in Finland in my unemployed save. Got hired by HJK. Spent 2 seasons there, won the league...then applied and got hired by RB Salzburg. Finland is weird because it starts at a different time...took some time to get used to!Teams:

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***
Well sadly travelling has taken some of my enjoyment out of the beta, but still here we are about halfway through the year, playing above all expectations, we had a run of draws and losses snapped and now we've got the confidence back.
And to hopefully make the attack a bit more potent....

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***
Getting off to a good start in my Spurs save, although I'm giving up a lot more goals than I normally do. My tactics are usually very defensively sound, and don't have me scoring a ton of goals, but this is kind of opposite. We're scoring plenty, but are also letting in a lot. I'd like to shore that up as the season goes on.
Currently sitting 3rd in the EPL table, and 2nd in our CL group, after dropping the CL opener 0-3 in Paris.
Also gambled with essentially an all-youth lineup in the League Cup, and lost 0-1 at Birmingham.

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***
So after getting Stoke relegated, I took that Birmingham job. Was doing pretty well into early December. Sitting in fifth place in the league, and having made it to the EFL cup quarters. When I got a surprise job offer from Newcastle. Who won the Championship last year and went back up. Rafa took the Netherlands job, with Newcastle sitting in 14th. So I jumped on that. Here is to not screwing this up and getting fired or relegated. Because I have a feeling who ever takes over Birmingham is going up.

Also, anyone know what stats we should judge data analysts on?
And I'll just leave this here:

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***
Yeah, starting with cup competitions, then friendlies, then the league is different. I don't really understand the Suomen cup either, like 95% of my squad was ineligible to play.
HJK was favored to win the league, but they got off to a slow start so they fired their manager and hired Hyypiä.Comment

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***
Will you guys be continuing your saves from the beta into the full version? Is this a wise idea to do?
If I go ahead and get the beta rolling, I assume that's a 'full size' download, and when the full version rolls next week, I wouldn't have to DL much? Is this accurate?
Sorry, n00b

I'm continuing mine over, I don't know of any issues with doing that, it's what I've done in the past.Will you guys be continuing your saves from the beta into the full version? Is this a wise idea to do?

And yeah, from what I remember, there will probably be a patch when the game actually comes out, but if you have already downloaded the beta you should just have to download the patch, assuming there is one.University of Minnesota Golden Gopher Hockey

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***
I'll be starting a new save. Since everything I've done has just been goofing around and testing things out. I haven't taken any of the saves I've started too serious. Mostly playing with tactics and some of the new stuff.

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***
So to confirm, there's only one "big" download? I also think I saw that I can just move the faces, stadiums, logos, etc. from a 2016 to 2017 folder w/out having to DL everything? Obviously I'd need to DL the new kits--but (most) everything else should be the same...?Arsenal | New York YankeesComment

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***
I can't comment on the change from beta to full, this is only my second FM also.
But for the graphics, that is all I did. Was move them from the fm16 folder to the fm17 for the beta and they worked just fine. I then downloaded some of the new smaller updates for them.

I'm not continuing mine over, but that's because editor data and stuff isn't live and I'll start a game with the Susie patches when they drop.Will you guys be continuing your saves from the beta into the full version? Is this a wise idea to do?
