From the latest development blog released last month, it all reads like much of a muchness, no?
Other than the conversion to Unity, which is no doubt a major, more powerful leap and a necessary one to not be left behind x-platform, what are the major changes other than stripping out a lot of the bloated unnecessary stuff to improve the UX, a few PL badges and the WSL data?
Have i missed something more interesting that's been promised ie: what the power of Unity will enable for example? |  | | |  |

Not sure, they haven’t released much but I suspect in the next few weeks we will get a lot more information.
Think the previous versions had reached the point where they couldn’t take the series where they wanted to and they were limited by the tech so this was a necessary jump to move it forward long term.
The last 3 or 4 versions have been good games but had been starting to feel
A bit overfamiliar and the same bugs/ limitations with the gameplay still there and not being able to be fixed.
Suspect this game won’t be groundbreaking but will give them the foundations to really take it forward in the next 5 years. |  | | |

Changing engines is not done lightly, especially when they've been using an in-house engine since I assume CM1.
Honestly, if it works OK without any major hiccups I'd be amazed, never mind new features.
It brings back fun memories of the first CM4, hilariously broken. I can't remember if that was the year where if you drew a line from CM -> FC (when you could still do that!) the match engine just had no idea what to do and would leave them completely unmarked. |  |

They say they're getting rid of the sideline shouts because they never go into effect until the next break in play. I HATE this change, as it's the only way (imperfect as it is) for a manager (you) to have an affect on the match during play. |  | | |

Cm4 was a disaster release, the thing that might help them is that they’ve been working on it for some time rather than the usual dec cycle but think you are right. Day 1 could be a nightmare and waiting until Xmas but be the time to purchase. | | | |

I do the research so have an ongoing NDA so wouldn't want to get myself in trouble with it, but just seems that this is the 'jump' edition that they do every 4-5 years | |

Does sound like this has been trundling along in the background for a while. I actually saw a job come up for it not too long ago and I was very tempted but working in the games industry is just not for me, really low pay and long hours for what you have to do. | |

Was aware that you were the researcher for ITFC. I’ll leave it there but encouraging update! Thanks. | | | |

Agreed. I think what everyone wants is more influence on the squad, better player interaction, relationship building and in-game management, not less. Improve all that and it’d take it to another level.
As someone else said, I imagine this will be new feature light given they’ll have a tonne of bug fixing to get the Alpha and Beta stable with the new engine. | | | |
