The game is basically feature finished except for two features:

1. FaceGen. Good thing is, Andreas and Jorin do this feature, bad thing, Andreas needed a well deserved vacation after his stressful months work on OOTP 16. While he is gone, Jorin works full time on it but it makes it hard to estimated when they are finished with it.

2. Tweaking the in-game screen. With so many new infos from the match engine it became clear, that we need to change the way we output the pbp text. The box from FHM 2014 does not work anymore, it makes following the game very hard. So we decided to exchange it with a single, long label that displays always a line of text (with nice, big font) much like Football Manager does it. This will not take long to change, mainly we need to rearrange the screen elements a bit to fit the label on the screen.

Other then the above all major and minor features are done and most of them in testing since a long time.'


Seems like a bit of a contradiction and the fact Sebastian's update was on the 31st May it sounds like things have gone backwards????
Nothing has gone backwards... Sebastian's post was just a surface update and didn't include every last thing that was being worked on. Jeff's update is more of a micro-level one with more detail.

The game is still feature finished, but it's now a matter of tweaking those things and how they work together and dealing with things that always crop up in testing.

As you'll see he mentioned most of the features have been in testing for some time, but most of course is not all, and some of the things that have been newer implemented are still getting tested and tweaked, as I mentioned in the original post.

Thanks!
