Football Manager 2010 new features blog Day 17: Media day Part 4
http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/ ... -article170255.html
We've reached the day 4 of 4 for blogs about the new media features in Football Manager 2010 before moving into other areas of the game, and it's now time to properly introduce news subscriptions.
I've spoken a few times in these blogs about how we've spent even more time then normal talking to the people who play our games over the last year and we've definitely come to realise we can't please all people all of the time.
One of the areas where people were split was the amount of news about the football world around you in the game.
Some people would tell us how they only cared about their club, and didn't care who won the league if it wasn't them, whereas others wanted to know who every single bit of information from around the world, including which Blue Square South player had missed training that week.
Rather than spending time debating how we fit a square peg into a round hole, a cunning plan was hatched by Sports Interactive's media corner on giving the person playing the game full control of what news they do, or don't, receive.
That plan became the news centre which is based on a simple subscription system that allows you to get information on any "object" in the game. "Objects" include any player, any staff member, any club, any nation or any competition. This news screen is in addition to your usual inbox where you will continue to see all the important messages and tasks to do with the day-to-day running of your club.
You can subscribe to news on an "object" by going to its screen and clicking on its subscription icon, and then whenever there is anything newsworthy from that object it will appear on your news screen. For those who like an extra bit of attention to detail, you can use the Manage Subscriptions panel to specifically choose what categories of news you receive on any subscribed objects. There are a whole load of news categories ranging from Awards to Records.
When you have news, a newspaper icon makes you aware of this, and you also get taken to the news centre a couple of times a week, as long as you have some unread news in there.
When you first start the game you are automatically subscribed to a few areas of news, such as the nation of your nationality and second nationality, your favourite club, your clubs nation, your clubs affiliate teams, your clubs division, some top international tournaments, the main cup competition in the nation you are managing in, and the top continental tournament but, of course, you can go into your Manage Subscription section and delete these if you so desire. You are also subscribed to news on any player that you shortlist too.
With the other 3 blogs in the last few days, that's all we're going to reveal about the media in FM2010 - the rest will be up to you to discover when the game is released at the end of October.
See you all tomorrow for another FM2010 new features blog.
Cheers
