I know what you mean. At some point we will introduce national teams of different levels to the game which will make stuff you describe pretty cool to follow. But making it easier to follow (young) guys you have rights for is something, that just moved up my to-do list. 
Our new PR/Marketing guru Cole works also for OOTP Dev as the new text guy. It is amazing what he already added for all three games (OOTP, BTS and FHM) and it will be cool to see what else is possible in the future. For the 2014 patch we will be a bit limited with pbp text as Cole has to work for OOTP at the moment but once he is done there he will shift to FHM 2 fulltime.
I think we improved the GUI/navigation a lot with FHM 2 and I'm really looking forward to all your feedback. The navigation is now much different to OOTP and IMO better suited for a Hockey Game.
The Sim Day button is now always visible, thats a big improvement for me. I will look into the space bar thing, not sure if that is technically possible.
I don't get this one, sorry. In FHM we don't have regens at all.  |
Awesome Sebastian. Thank you for taking the time to follow up. If you don't do regens in FHM that's perfect. What I'm saying though is, to make sure that for online leagues, when scouting, that there is some element of luck and some element of expectations for early round picks.
I'm just hoping that over 10-20 simulated seasons, someone who is in a league can't figure out your code. Then a bunch of online GM's will trade for picks in THAT upcoming draft year and have an edge and say:
"The curve now means that FHM will need to correct themselves to keep the stats aligned, we all know this will be a deep draft based on the fact the game needs to fix the league average numbers, etc"
So hopefully some of that kind of stuff doesn't hurt the prospect classes, rookies, potential in the patterns as described above.
