Football Manager 2019: 10 New Features To Be Excited About
4. 3D Match Engine Enhancements
Football Manager's 3D Match Engine comes with fresh enhancements each year. In FM19's case, things aren't quite photorealistic yet, but more than 500 new animations is a good start. The improvements are related to things like ball control, crosses, headers, passes, shots, tackles, goal celebrations and crowd movements.
For the most part, we're talking tweaks rather than overhauls but the difference will be noticeable out there on the pitch, and more specifically, around the stadiums. This is because SI has added more diversity when it comes to the grounds themselves.
If you manage a team in one of the smaller leagues, you'll pick up on this, as there is now a greater variety of stadiums with a capacity of up to 5,000. They're made from of all kinds of different building materials and now feature disabled fans in the stands.
