CM4 has been one of the most awaited games for years. Finally it's here and well..... Don't bother buying it.
Yes the game is brilliant, yes it is just as addictive as ever and yes it has a few new features that make it much more enjoyable, however it is also one of the most bug-ridden pieces of software I have ever come across.
The bugs which are too numerous to mention are in the process of being sorted by SI games via the release of "enhancement packs" which can be downloaded from the website. A word of warning - these are large files (approx 5 Mb each) and therefore slow going for anyone using a dial up connection.
Currently SI games have released Enhancement Pack 2 (bug fix 2 more like) and have confirmed that another is expected shortly.
I'd recommend that you wait until the bugs have been ironed out before buying this as losing several seasons results is VERY VERY frustrating.
