Any ideas how I can get a download? All of the earlier links seem to have been locked out. Please help!!!
All the links are gone until the Gold Demo comes out. When that is I have no clue.

I'm still in the Dark about the Quick Starts. What DB setting is being used? And how come we cannot set DB size?

profiled, upon quick examination, there are still a few slight errors with American players in the Gold demo.
I posted all of these previously on the SI board. Anyway, most important is Landon Donovan's cap / goal count. Says he's got 30 some games and only 8 goals. Its about double on both in actuallity.
Also, looks as if DaMarcus still isn'y left-footed and is listed as able to play right midfield. Never personally seen him play right wing and considering his position at PSV, a AM/F LC sounds more accurate to me. Also, game has him wearing #7 at PSV. He wears #11.
As well, John O'Brien's position in the demo is D/DM L. Not only does he play center midfield for the Nats, but he's also played right back for Ajax. I'd say he's a D/DM RLC.

Actually DMB has played central and right mid. He pinches into the middle a lot and played central in the last two USA games. I don't know if he's as good at right mid, but I've seen him out there as well.

Two games doesn't make it your secondary position, in my opinion.

appears that only some of the american and brazilians have their face pack in the game. where is everyone else? licenses? Do we have to wait until the release?

they need to fix the "trasfer listed bug", i cant sell anyone.
is anyone else having the same problem?
the clubs need to have more money for transfers, liverpool had 500k in their transfer kit, while portsmouth had 5M.
im assuming they will fix this by the time the game is completely done.

It REALLY hurts the gaming experience not to have the traditional squad view. I know it's a legal issue, and that you can't put it in the game, but is there a possibility that someone in the community can put it in the game?
I'm just asking if it would even be possible. For me, it hurts the game so much so that I don't even think I'm going to buy it. I deleted the demo(though, I never downloaded the gold one) and have just continued playing CM 03/04.

I like the new look. I like the soccerball instead of yellow dot and the retro scoreboard on top of the screen while watchign matches. It is a nice flashback from the past.

Hmm... I have downloaded the Gold demo(fully featured one) and I can confirm that I will definately buy this game. :)
There seem to be a way to view the squad similarly to the tradition view, but every time I use it, one player is missing from the list. I think it may be a bug, because every time I switch over the player left out is different. Still a great game though.

I downloaded the gold edition but when I play it, it starts in Danish and I can't change it to English. I messed around enough and I found where the Language selector is but when I change it to English nothing happens. I can't tell if I need to click another button to say save changes or something like that after I change it to English. So it looks nice but since I don't read Danish I have no clue whats going on.

Same thing happened to me. If you were able to find the preferences menu to change it to English, you need to confirm your changes. There are three words in the bottom left panel of the screen. Click the first of the three to confirm it.

liverpool isnt a bug. they had just got done buying luis garcia, cisse, and xabi alonso. i guess 500k is all they had left after the owen sell and all of that.
si has said they averaged in the summer transfers, but the following summer all would be right in the game.
