They will. Miles basically confirmed as much on twitter.

Nice. I guess I won't be buying it directly for a while, since I have 3 years of GP.

Xbox or PC? PC Game Pass is new, and will have it on PC.

I would think about it but I dont play games outside of FM/Cities:Skylines/occasional FIFA game

I had it on Xbox only, but converted it to the PC/Xbox version today for $1. I got some codes from a buddy who works at the Microsoft campus in Seattle for 3 years this Christmas. I told him I have an Xbox but I never really use it. So he was like, well take these and play some free games on it so you get some use out of it. I used the codes, ended up playing one game and then never turning it back on. But now I'll use it for PC games they add to it.

I'm downloading FM19 through it now to see how it works. Hoping there isn't issues with it being locked down since its through the Windows 10 store. I've never use it before.


Edit: Or maybe I'll never use it again, lol. The downloads through the windows 10 store are ridiculous. 1.5mb/s. Steam downloads FM19 for me in 5 minutes. Over 20 minutes now and not even 500mb downloaded. Unreal.


Edit2: Not worth it to me as you can't use the license fix. All other modding stuff works, but the way the protect the folders you can't access the core game folders for the DB folder. I'm sure there would be a way but its not worth my time to look into. I'll just keep buying the steam version.

Anyone ever had luck playing online with friends?

A buddy of mine and I are tying to give it a go.

Feedback welcomed...

I think it's a lot easier to run an online game now than it was back when a few of us here did it. IIRC you had to go through a third party software to host and connect. I don't think you have to do that anymore. Only load a minimum of leagues so the processing doesn't take very long.

It's weird to me how much this matters to me. I've used Sortitoutsi's version for years, and this year I tried FM Scouts as I was getting everything else from there, and even though the changes were minor when it came to club names, it was enough that I had to just quit and go get the Sortitoutsi version of it. So yeah, I wasn't gonna do the Game Pass anyway, but that certainly solidifies it.

9 points out of 9 in the league so far, with Emiliano Martinez keeping 4 clean sheets in 4 appearances due to a Leno injury.

Just so I'm not a lurker/gif poster...couldn't help but grab 19 a week ago. It has been fun playing as Bayern going into the 19/20 season basically buying whoever I want—all the German kids will soon belong to me.

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

so it's been a rough go at AO Trikala, we went on this glorious 5-game skid of losing encased within an 8-game winless streak, i got mad at the game and just started playing the backups that I had signed, and we've won 4 of 6, and climbed to that wonderful mid-table area. We have a chance, albeit small, to make it into the Championship group instead of the Relegation group, and I would much rather be bottom of the Championship Group than top of the Relegation Group. Christmas break is over, and we really trained quite hard over it, I'm gonna hope it pays off.



Also the club is going bankrupt and is possibly being taken over, so we'll see how that goes as well!

Spent huge on Havertz, tried for CHO or Sane, but Chelsea and City both don't really want to talk yet.

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

This should be fun. 2019/2020 season. Spent $117M this season but took in $146M from player sales.







Cropped out a couple outgoing loans. They were all just youth players.
