Think this beauty of a game deserves a seperate thread as its a cmpletly different game than the last couple of years.

I downloaded mine at midnight andit's awesome!!! Had the usuall problem with Steam (couldent download it for over a hour) you need to have the the new Direct x installed and all the new windows updates, you also have to do something with the cache which can be found in the games properties. Pain in the ar*e!!!

However the game itself is fantastic imo, still getting to grips with it.

My Team is..

Queens Park Rangers - Cola Championship.

Received the DVD yesterday but couldn't register it because the activation code said it wouldn't work until 12 midnight.

From playing the demo a couple of weeks ago it's a more polished game with some great new features.

Dropped through my letterbox yesterday, so will take a look at it over the weekend.

How long before the SI forums are overwhelmed with bug reports?

I'm suprised they're not already.

Just wrestling with steam at the moment from my DVD copy. Says 4 minutes until the game launches, the problem is the seconds are taking minutes to expire. Friggin Steam!!

Getting it in the morning, gonna do some online games with guys from my old 6th form.

Us students are awesome like that

Pah, who needs FM2010, I'm still playing 07

First game underway. Started unemployed as usual and have landed the Chester city job so need to perform miracles to stay in the league. Lost the first game 2-1 after bossing it. Anyone found any lower league loanees?

Looks very good, the usual time to get used to new features/appearance but it'll be as addictive as ever! LOVE the new tactics creator.

Solid start made with Leeds. Brought in Nemeth the old Boro striker. Beckford scored 7 in the first 4 games. I'm jumping up from 08 here as well so really struggling with the interface at the moment, and feel like I'm getting a little too much help from my staff. Also the 3D match engine is a complete no-go for me, the 2d traditional one is running jerkily enough as it is!

installed from the dvd as relised net would be a pain in the backside

looks amazing and seems to play well

My mate's just bought this, I'm currently installing it logged in on his steam; will it work for us both?

Furthermore, will I be able to get this game up as one of my games on my Steam, despite downloading it on another user?

What are the specification requirements like for FM 10?

I bought the 09 version but ended up having problems and it wouldn't install because my laptop wasn't good enough. I've got a new laptop (Sony Vaio NS10) which is running Vista but i'm not sure exactly whether i'll meet the spec limits. Just wondering if anybody has any ideas before i go out and buy the game.
