I fucked it again this year.  None of the games I predicted to come out at the end of the year in January are coming out.  The Nintendo ones I knew were a long shot but both 2XKO (been talked about for yeeeeaaars) and Avowed (just because of a change in rollout strat), I feel like I'm cursed or something.

I thought if a game got a score it’d count regardless of release date but apparently that’s deeper in the settings to allow ffs 😂 

 

Also why tf of all games to slip is football manager 2025 not coming out? 😂

Are you talking about Hades II?... Technically it hasn't released, it's early access still I think. Either way remember it wasn't me that set the league rules this year in any case but i think that's how it's been in previous years too.🙂

That’s what I said you pudding 😛 I thought if it allowed early access games it’d allow the score by default but it’s a separate thing you have to turn on which sucks.

 

@DANGERMAN what’s happening with football manager? Apparently 2024 sucks too since an update or something?

@mmmarkI don't really play FM anymore but from what I understand, they're finally giving it a proper overhaul, and they've overran with it 

 

With FM24, all I've heard is something about people not being able to update the rosters. I don't know why though, usually there's fan patches. They used to have an editor, that went to dlc at some point but I've no idea if it still is
