My Observations of FHM 2014:
On “Team Home Screen”
PP Chances and SH Chances do not seem to be working.
“Who’s Hot” and “Who’s Not” is not working.
I would rather see the team “Schedule and Results” in calendar form as it is in OOTP as well as the format that is currently being used.
The Right mouse button seems to have no function. Maybe use it for a quick way to go back a page?
I can’t find players “shootout” stats. If it isn’t being kept track of, it should be.
I am guessing a scouting system is in the works. I love it in OOTP Baseball and can’t wait to see it here.
The amount of penalties called seems to be a bit low.
(After a little more gameplay the penalty calling seems to be just fine. The refs must have been a wee bit weary at the time I posted this.
)
The play-by-play seems like a shooting gallery. There are no descriptions of teams moving the puck. I hate to mention a competitor’s product, but APBA Hockey has very good play-by-play that give you a good picture of the flow of the game. I see nothing wrong with checking out the competition to see what I feel is missing.
I would like to see the “flags” that pinpoint where shots are made from be color coded as they are in the description of the shots.
NOTE: I just purchased FHM 2014 on October 10 and these are just things I notice while just simming most of a season as a spectator. I have yet to go “hands on”. I hope my observations, and the observations of other OOTP fans, can help you make FHM as good as OOTP Baseball, which is by far, the best sports simulator ever made!
Great job so far and keep up the good work!!!
Thanks!
