Screenshot blog - Round 3

In today's blog, you'll get all the info on the new screenshots we released last Sunday.

Hi to all,

Today I have lots of detailed info on the last round of screenshots we published last week. I’m going to explain every single shot and the feature behind it:

Club info/transfers
The screen is already filled with real data from the respective club at gamestart.

Club info/transfers

This screen is now filled with all data from reality which adds even more realism to it. Loans, returning players and the like are listed as well. All players are sorted by their level and the top transfer can now either be a new signing or a player you sold. In addition, the transfer fee is displayed as well.

Announcement of the finals’ hosts

These two stadiums will be the venues of the international finals after next. This feature was one of the “Your Feature” campaign winners. After you have filed your application, this screen will inform you about your success or loss.

These stadiums will be the venues for the finals in two years’ time.
Live Season
For the same price of 4,99€, you now also get the new feature Live Database for the whole season in addition.

Live Season

Live Season will be this year’s only Premium Service for FIFA MANAGER 12. Live Season enables you to get the latest data from the real pitches from over 11 international leagues on a weekly basis. You can start a game at every match day of the 2011/12 season whenever you want and influence your club’s future. The Premium Service will be available at 4,99€ and features data for the whole season.

In total 11 leagues are supported:
Austria (1st division)
England (1st division)
France (1st division)
Germany (1st-3rd division)
Italy (1st division)
Netherlands (1st division)
Poland (1st division)
Spain (1st division)
Switzerland (1st division)


Live Season data covers:
- League results and key match events like goals, cards, and substitutions
- Results from various cup competitions
- Player ratings and form
- Various player stats such as matches played, goals, cards etc.
- Injuries

As soon as you start your game you are immediately taken right into the real-life situation of your club. It’s your decision whether you face a relegation battle or can go for the championship.
In addition Live Season this season includes for the time first database updates with the very latest club and player data. You can now always play with the most up-to-date data, also in case you want to start your game in the traditional way with a full season preparation!

For your info:
Our traditional database updates will remain free of charge. This means, that database updates will again be part of every FIFA MANAGER 12 update and the traditional database update after the winter transfer period will also remain a free download.

Manager Tasks
This screen keeps you up-to-date on the completion rate of the Manager Tasks.

Manager Tasks

This screen shows you, how many tasks you have already finished and completed. The mobile phone image means that you can only complete the task if it pops on the mobile on the right part of the screen. There are also tasks which can also be achieved in the background; always 40 tasks are active at once, the rest is signified by a “?”.

New stadium
From now on, you can build a new stadium as well.

New stadium

Another winner of the “Your Feature” campaign. As of now, you can choose to build a new stadium which you can select and use after it has been constructed.

Personal Life
Two new hobbies were added: training and running a marathon and mountaineering.

Personal Life

Amongst other changes, we implemented two new hobbies (Marathon and Mountaineering), your partner now also shows a certain interest in football. Due to latest events, you can now also buy gold next to funds and shares. The whole area of luxury has been overhauled as well.

Stock Market
Buy and trade club stock as well.

Stock Market

The new stock market also lists club shares, at the beginning of a new game only those clubs are represented here that are actually traded on the market in reality.

Since we are bound due to legal issues, we cannot fill the stock market with more than these shares. However, we integrated the option (for our fansites and users) to include your own companies and shares (with logo) which will also be simulated by the game – this lets you create your own stock market very easily.

It all can be done very easily and will be explained in an updated version of the workbench document.

Last 24 hours of the transfer period
More offers for your own players will pop up in the last 24 hours.

Last 24 hours of the transfer period

You can now negotiate the transfer sum directly on the screen; more last minute direct offers for your own players are flying in and ongoing transfer negotiations can be continued on this screen as well.

TV revenue allocation
The last four years are taken into consideration.

TV revenue allocation

In this subject matter, the last four years are taken into account. This means that a club who won the title some years ago still profits from that past event till today.

This is it from me for today, I hope I could give you a good picture of some more features of the new FIFA MANAGER 12. We started a discussion thread in our foum: Screenshot thread


Cheers
