I would like to begin by saying I am having a blast with this game and am currently in the year 2024 in PTG mode. I do however have some general opinions and observations I would like to point out since I know FHM 4 development is ongoing!!

1) As a PTG player I believe the option to go on vacation is a must. I love the day to day sim but would love to have the ability to sim to a particular date or event. I do understand the premise for this mode is for day to day simulation of the life of a real GM but I think the ability to sim to certain dates/events could help with excessive clicking and waiting!

2) I believe that jobs get filled to quickly and therefore there are never any available jobs in season. I even had two instances that jobs were filled before I even had a chance to reply, however once I accepted the job the GM they had just hired immediately got fired. It would be nice if available jobs in season stayed unfilled for a few days and gave you the ability to at least apply for a position rather than have one offered to you.

3) I am not sure if this is possible or not but I have never had this happen in my current game. It would be nice if you were offered a contract from another organization in a higher league while you were still employed. As I stated I am not sure if this is possible but as the GM of a very successful QMJHL team I have never been offered a job by a team in the ECHL/AHL or any other higher level pro league. My reputation is still below average so this maybe the reason, which leads me into point 4.

4) I have been the GM of 2 different QMJHL teams during my 8 sim years playing the game. During this time I have been to 3 memorial cups, finished with over 100 points in 6 of those years however I still have a reputation of below average. I am not sure if reputation is based on results or years employed but I would have thought my reputation would have risen a bit faster based on my results.

5) I also noticed that the memorial cup rotation seems like a random selection of CHL teams as a whole rather than a rotation between the 3 leagues. It would also be nice to have the option to apply to host the memorial cup a year or 2 in advance that way you could build your team accordingly. It would be disappointing if you decided to go into rebuild mode and got awarded the memorial cup before the season.

6) It seems that overage players in the CHL get no love. They are impossible to trade and on the flip side AI teams will give away significant assets just to include overage players in trades. I would love to have a shop around feature for this game. That way you could quickly see what teams may have interest in not just overage players but also help if you were looking to trade away younger assets to build a contender for the season.

7) I enjoy the ability to participate in world tournaments, however would love the ability to turn off news stories for international events. I hate when my mailbox gets filled up with news that some player from Mexico had a great game in the division 3 world U18 tournament. I enjoy reading stories from international games my players are part of but would like the ability to control what news I receive.

As I previously stated I am really enjoying how this game is playing but just wanted to bring some attention to some of the things I have noticed during my gameplay that may help with the FHM 4 experience!
