The conversation did not bring the fans of Football Manager sensational news of the latest version of the game. Head of Sports Interactive development team, however, betray the scenes work on Football Manager 2010.
As it turns out, the studio programming grown in the last year up to 70 people. All employees have the right to submit their own proposals for amendments and voting on them, regardless of the functions they perform. Miles revealed that at the beginning of the conceptual work has had a team of up to 900 Innovation! Head SI has also started to listen to the voice of the players and their friends - at the beginning of this year's harvest all the proposals and discussed them for three weeks.
The meetings were very numerous, since everyone wanted to have the opportunity to influence the direction that will develop a series of Football Manager - the individual amendments were evaluated by each employee on a scale of 1 to 5, and then selected those with the highest notes. List of changes is sufficient even for the next three years! In addition to the introduction of new options, Sports Interactive can fix and develop existing ones.
A lot of time spent on testing of press conferences, snaring answers to questions that do not match or the current situation at the club. Miles Jacobson frankly admits that after a while talking to journalists in the FM become boring.
Head of SI did not answer the question about favorite news - explaining that it must first be confirmed by lawyers. In return, we know already touted features - a new transfer system, associated with the introduction of agents or a dynamic reputation leagues. He did not fail also boast a big achievement of their development team - it is about the evolution of the 3D mode from version 2009 to 2011. As he says, the amount of change that has taken place in this game element could be equally well implemented in five years.
Jacobson notes that some innovations are not possible to put FM on the PC, and will implemented in versions for PSP and iPhone. As it turns out work on the version supported by the device from Apple and Sony are so confidential that no one even in "the mother company" which is SEGA does not know how it will look like in this version of the game!
Still release date of Football Manager 2011 is not fixed, but it will take place during the end of October to the end of November. Miles Jacobson explains this desire to focus on polishing the product, that the players did not get the "trash" on release - the moment when it is convinced that the game will not contain serious errors officially confirm the release date. In addition, Sports Interactive is rarely the same day shall release the game because it often makes SEGA, which proposes Stalker his day. We know that the official release date will be made public in late September.
So it appears that Sports Interactive at the moment is mainly focused on polishing the game, so that we not experienced any serious errors - whether it really will be, we'll find out soon.
