DESCRIPTION:

The Championship Manager series has set the benchmark for realistic and immersive football management simulations for over a decade.

Championship Manager is the management game for every football fan.

Our target market is as unlimited as football itself … If it’s in football, it’s in Championship Manager.

GAME FEATURES: - SI have always wanted to add more depth to this aspect of the game – it is an important aspect of management, after all! - No longer will you simply customise a limited number of training schedules and watch players improve, or not, in certain areas. There will be no more columns and columns of coloured stats! - The flexibility of the new system is based around visual feedback from the player pages and reports from your coaches. Attributes still change over time, but you will see instantly whether the regime you have created is benefiting the player. Customised routines can consist of up to 15 activities and can be set for individuals or groups. - Their success depends on the quality of your coaching staff, the ability of the player, and the choices you make! - A vital part of the Championship Manager experience is creating a team through aqcuiring and offloading players. - With more contract options, better scouts, increased agent involvement and a more flexible system for enquiries, the transfer side of CM4 has been completely overhauled. The media will now be more involved as well, disgruntled players, unsettled stars and greedy agents will all use the press to make the manager’s life harder. - SI are committed to making it as realistic as possible, and that means that you now have more options, and barriers, in you search for that key player. - New hidden attributes include composure, first touch and an improved morale system that shows their general state of happiness. Goalkeepers also have a new “Eccentricity” rating that influences aspects of their play. - The aim is to make managers to get to know their players and develop favourites, just like in real life. - New aspects of the utterly redesigned match engine include tactical and positional improvements. In addition, there are more details for each player that enable the manager to set individual roles and specify certain runs. - The biggest change is the new 2D match view. Enabling the manager to see exactly what their players are doing and how well their tactics are working, this is the biggest visual step in the CM series so far! Combining an increase in feedback with the same nail biting tension of previous versions.
