Yeah, I knew it. The bad thing is, it fixes alot of problem, but you No Longer get to bask in the glory of growing Freddy Adu as a player
According to SI they are planning on making a 2nd patch to fix the speed issue. Hopefully it fixes it because I have already given up on CM 03/04. I'm not gonna play it anymore until it is fixed.
another error riddled game??? they should've stuck with the old game engine. they had a winning formula and changed it a losing formula.
Yes, after I couldn't get through a week on large database in 2 hours I decided to start a new game with medium database. And I was expecting the game to fly through but it was still slow. Medium database is slower than large data was on CM4. Simply put, this game is unplayable as it is now.
SI has said they are looking to fixing the Speed problem. They may have to cut the Database back to the CM4 size, but these changes may not come till the January Transfer Window opens and closes, as their EIDOS contract expires soon, and they probably won't want to continue to work on a game they will no longer profit from. However, SI may decide to work in another patch soon and then make 1 last Data Update in January.
