I have to say you guys have outdone yourself. FHM8 Is the best game yet!

Just the whole control of your team during the game, (Pass, Shoot, Skate, Fight) is a fantastic feature that adds even more enjoyment of the game. 2 preseason games in and I am obsessed!!!

Outstanding job everyone!!!!

Thanks, glad you like it. The direct control may not be for everybody, but it was pretty clear a lot of people were interested in having something like that.

It's something I didn't know I needed until I saw it in the trailer! Also loving the highlights feature and the financials are amazing! Awesome job!

I do like it a lot, it does make playing the game much more engaging.
I would like the ability to do the same move multiple times though. Like 5x let the player do what they think is best or 3x passes... something like that.

Prob something only i'd like though

I have owned every single version of this game Jeff and once again, you've outdone yourself. Thank you for continuing to fill this hockey fix I have. You keep making them, I will keep buying them!

I simmed +30 years in several games and only had one crash. The Steam version of the game is really stable for me on PC.

I'll play the game and be sure to post a review on Steam when I'll have played more hours. This version is great.

This is the best version yet. That's all you can ask really......that it keeps improving.

#4BobbyOrr · 10-27-2021, 12:59 AM

Game is awesome! Thanks for the hard work put in.

zappa1 · 10-28-2021, 07:28 AM

I love the in game decision making. One thing though, it's all offense. What if when I'm on defense I get a pop up box for defensive decisions once in awhile? Like check player off the puck or try to steal the puck away. Of course it may cause a penalty.

Stay back or pinch.

Add line changes for face-offs and I'm there.

Many thanks for all the small and large improvements every year! This year I am especially pleased that the business side of the game got more playable opportunities. I would be happy if as in othere areas of the game here also follow further steps.

I have said this before, the ratings of all players going back through time is incredible. It takes a lot of work to research each era, especially the lesser known players.

Other hockey games want to charge you for each season, not so in FHM!

Thank you FHM team for your continued dedication to this game and to Jeff R for putting up with our questions and requests!!
