Currently forging ahead with my "trial" United game to kick the tires (the one I usually run to orient myself in the new digs with a familiar club before settling in to a long-term game after the major bug-fix releases from SI).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8198732413882406269.post-29531852764275153002011-11-10T08:51:58.465-05:002011-11-10T08:51:58.465-05:00Thanks.

I'm kinda happy where it's at now, so here's hoping the bug doesn't strike again. (Though if Blogger improves the customization of the dynamic views, chances of said bug biting increase exponentially).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8198732413882406269.post-24928636658430915252011-11-10T07:12:24.605-05:002011-11-10T07:12:24.605-05:00Btw, I like what you're doing with the place.Btw, I like what you're doing with the place.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13636252400013702060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8198732413882406269.post-59336312909461995812011-11-04T07:10:29.185-04:002011-11-04T07:10:29.185-04:00Yeah, I love Steam - bought WWSM 09 and FM 10/11/1...Yeah, I love Steam - bought WWSM 09 and FM 10/11/12 from them without incident.<br /><br />I have had issues with the app allowing games to start in offline mode at times, which allows me a few moments of righteous fury - i.e., "I bought this goddamned thing, I shouldn't have to connect to your servers to prove it!"<br /><br />Compared with the ass-pain I had getting older versions of FM, it's awesome. I mean, I'm a guy who still calls the game 'Championship Manager' about half the time.

I've seen a lot of vitriol directed against it online, but most of the gamers I've talked to (rational, meatspace real-worlders and not the shrieking virtual harpies of the web) echo your sentiment. <br /><br />Fingers crossed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8198732413882406269.post-52556919481267539632011-11-03T11:14:34.725-04:002011-11-03T11:14:34.725-04:00I've used Steam for much more than FM.

I've found that when I have problems, it's either their servers--which do crap out temporarily from time to time--or I've gotten to some point where I need to reboot (which is a Windows artifact, not a Steam problem). But by and large, I like Steam just fine.Landruhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11954074164878242561noreply@blogger.com
