Before I get started here, please, please, please do not ask when the patch is coming out. That always starts such..... colorful conversations and seems to result in more often than not getting threads shut down. That is not what this thread is for and is not intended to be a topic OF this thread.

Now, since we are a year out since 1.6.19's release, I thought that it would be interesting to go back through some of the older posts on the board over the last year or so and see what was confirmed as being in the patch, and what was hinted at hence why it is called a "hope list." Here is what has been discussed that I hope is part of the final patch.

My hope is not for somebody to announce a release date. Instead, maybe somebody will decide that it is an appropriate time to step forward and say "yes, this is here" or "no, that was originally planned but it is no longer part of the final FHM 14 patch.

So here is what I found by doing some digging. First the things that were stated to be completed or close to it. While I could post links to all of these if people wanted, I do not intend to do that as I have already started the work on it. Basically: if you want to know where it came from search it out. I assure you the information below is contained within this board..

First, the "YES" items:

New Match Engine
eSeller Fix
Graphical cosmetic changes on the game play screen
Enforcer usage and fighting (stated as being a 'work in progress')
Bug fix for coaching records doubling results
Updated 2014-2015 season data
Automatic 2 team expansion with default teams of Quebec and Seattle

Now, the "MAYBE" items:

A "rudimentary" multiplayer
Transfer issues with non-playable leagues resolved
Loading of WHA stats correctly
NHL Playoff format correction
Ability to trade off players when you start with more than 50 on your roster
Fix for the news subscriptions allowing "no news and only PM's"
Button to request a random player name on the editor screen
Increasing the value of draft picks
User selection of shootout participants
Multiple GM's (probably the rudimentary multiplayer)

Also there will be NO FACEGEN in 2014 but it is planned for FHM2.

Again, this is NOT THE PLACE TO ASK FOR A RELEASE DATE FOR THE PATCH.

What did I miss, anything? Did this capture most of them?
