Another patch has been released, this is v11.1.1 and can be found here

[keefa]

2 patches already? The game must have been shocking upon release! 

[big_evil]

Not really played it that much tbh, still having fun in Spain

[Millie]

A few annoying UI bugs etc. tidied up. Which is always nice.

[spirefox]

tried to use the patch but when I pressed update it said there was a sharing violation for file 118.. I bought a genuine copy of the game so don't know where this comes from any ideas?

I now cannot upload to YouTube since patching, just get movie file write error.

Apart from the exploitable transfer market, insane number of yellow cards, overpowered crossing into the box, overpowered acceleration/pace, overpowered morale,  exploitable match preparation, CBs who need more time to turn than an average truck, playmakers not seeing nearly enough of the ball, DM and FB not marking properly in 2vs2 and playing defensive football not being viable, it's working perfectly fine, really.

Don't patch the game while it's running is the usual solution.

Alternatively, you aren't trying to patch a Steam version with the boxed patch or another similar wrong patch issue are you?

[spirefox]

sorted now. cheers JP

I can't comment on all of these since I've only played one season and at a low level, but I'm not seeing overpowered crossing, acceleration, or morale. My CBs seem to be acting normally, my playmaker is getting into the game, and I had an excellent disciplinary record. I also had a solid defence.

The match preparation does look a little out of whack, certainly, and I'm having issues trying to "work around" the marking problems, but I haven't seen these as game breaking at the moment.

Maybe I'm not trying hard enough, but I haven't noticed most of these issues. Then again, I'm deliberately staying clear of most of the whine threads.

So that's why I haven't seen you in the Liverpool thread lately 

[Death Ball]

I haven't noticed any of those issues, either.

There's been a few matches with a high amount of cards, yes, but it's a minority of them.

If anything, I thought at first maybe a lot of goals come from gaining the FB's back, but that's the same that happened in FM10 and FM09 in the first matches before polishing my tactics.

Liverpool thread? Is there people finding it impossible winning with Liverpool?. Well, in my demo game, that I've not retook in the full game (I like taking teams low and make them work their way up) I've not lost a single match. Even more, I had the itch the game might have been way too easy.

Proper realism there if true

Seeing what I wrote it probably came across as a whine, but it wasn't intended to be so.  I really like the new FM, the ME looks and feels more realistic, I like the player conversations, the dynamic league reputations are just awesome (for someone who plays 30-40 seasons in a save), board interactions, player interactions, training... Everything really.  It's just that it has some annoying bugs. 

EDIT: I wrote a long post explaining the issues but a lot of it is probably tipping, so I'll just say that marking is out of whack and that at the moment handling players and working the transfer market is way too easy.

I want to ask two questions.

1) Why when I pacthed with 11.1.1 in the "New game" window the game still show me that the version is 11.1.0?

2) Why everytime when I start the game the software searches the game disk? And when I insert it the game is ok and then if I eject it the game doesn't want it anymore? It's very uncomfortable everytime when I want to start the game to insert the disk and then to eject it everytime when I need the CD.

EDIT:

Another two questions:

3) Why after patch 11.1.1 the Liverpool Board/Owner are still the same - ie there is NESV.

[big_evil]

I think patch 11.1.1 was only a code update, so there was no new database, this may be why the Liverpool board hasn't changed. If you installed the game from the disc it may be copy protection that requires the disc to be inserted every time you start the game.

[cagiva]

But I read an annocment, where SI said that in the 11.1 patch the Liverpool board will be changed. That's why I was suprised to see that in 11.1.1 there was no changes at all.

Yes, I installed the game from the disk, but why the software doesn't ask me for the copyright code or something else during the installation, but still asking me for the disk everytime I start the game?

I know see that the software do recodnize the new 11.1.1 patch, but only in the "game status" submenu when I'm in the game. And it's logical when that patch is no DB changed the global software to not put him as new label in the "New game" start menu. I understand know..

[WibbleWobble]

When I start a new game, the only database I get is the old patch to select, but on the next screen at the top it shows 11.1.1. - anyone else the same.

Also, I noticed the patch readme said the following: "51945 - Players disappear from set piece assignments"

This is still happening and it's driving me crazy having to select my tactic every match just to be sure everything is setup correctly. Why on earth do the set piece arrangements 'grey out' after matches? Can't they fix that, or hasn't my patch installed properly - and yes I did download the correct one - PC Disc - as I bought the game from a shop.

[Gaz]

There's a data update in the 11.1.0 patch. It's got Martin Broughton, John Henry etc on the Liverpool board in my game

[cagiva]

I installed 11.1.1, not 11.1.0, but there is no logic that in 11.1.0 to have those changes, but in 11.1.1 to not have them.

Anyone can clarify this?
