FML The Memories No6

Easter 2008

Busy playing the game in pre release beta GW6.

The game was fresh to me and alot of other managers and I was spending a huge amount of time online the forums were constantly alive with ideas, suggestions and bugs.

There was a real sense of being involved in at ground level in helping shape a future gaming classic.

I remember thinking I was going to be off work for the whole weekend and FML was going to get a right royal hammering.

The weather was amazing hot for that time of year then all of a sudden on the Saturday I think it was the game went BANG offline.

As far as I recall the cooling system had broken at Sega where the servers were and this had caused a massive issue resulting in downtime for the whole weekend. Whilst service engineers were called out easter.

The forums became alive with people moaning like hell!!!

I rememeber thinking about a week after the game had come back up, people were really passionate about FML and they were onto a winner here.

Easter 2008 RIP
