Get the Championship Manager 2006 Gold demo off WP (99mb)

So where has the game improved since the BETA demo I hear you ask? Where do I start?

Game Crashes:

We are very confident that this will be a very stable game for you all. All the crashes reported on the forums and also by our QA have been fixed.

Match Engine:

The behaviour of the defending and the amount of one-on-ones seemed to be causing the biggest concern for you all so I’m pleased to say that this is something that has improved massively from the BETA demo. We also improved the match engine in other areas too, these included:
A Goalkeeping update which now sees his position improved as well as his awareness to come off the line. He is now better at saving the ball too.
In the Passing update we addressed some issues where passes were being over hit, as well as the choice of passing which will see a more varied game from the beta demo and to help defending we improved passing safety, meaning you are less likely to see wayward passes.
Other AI improvements include better dribbling, better penalties and better player performances.
We also fixed issues with the A-A games.

Oh and the ball is more visible too.

Transfers:

The transfers have not only improved in terms of bug fixing but we have also improved the realism too. No longer will clubs sell you or any one else there best players. The game now has much improved board veto’s too allowing the user to buys player when the money is available to do so. We have also addressed many of the bugs reported on the forums and improved the overall quality of this area.

Player Talks:

We actually spent some time adding some more responses to what you could say to players with concerns, these include:
Not Fulfilling Role
Tell him if he continues to train well he’ll start getting the 1st team appearances he crave
Player was told that if he continues to train well that he’ll eventually get his chance in the 1st
Team Doing Badly
Agree but tell him that looking at the fixture list you feel the form will get better in the coming weeks
Playing Out of Position
Tell him you’ll start playing him in the correct position from the next game
Promised he’d play in his favoured position in the next match
Club Lacking Ambition
Agree, but tell them you’re looking to improve the squad at the moment

We also addressed problems where player were unhappy for not playing when they had been injured.
