Are you guys using the formula/ rotation that the NFL uses to generate schedules for future years? Also, will we have the option to custom schedule games if we want?

Francis Cole · 11-24-2014, 04:05 AM

Yes
Not currently.

will there be available position of defensive or offensive coordinator and call only that plays?
or just to be head coach and call all the plays?

As the GM you can hire a whole range of staff, and that includes OC and DC

What are you going to do for player development? Training camp? Daily practice? Playbook preparation? Game preperation?

Francis Cole · 11-25-2014, 02:46 AM

As we only have 1 playbook for V1, we have no playbook learning/preperation for V1.

However there is daily practice/OTA/Training Camp where players can improve/decline (or get injured etc), and the their development will largely depend on the coaches you have hired (as well as the players himself obviously).

thanks for your respond but I wrote the question wrong.
I wanted to ask can I enter the game like OC or DC and later some team hire me as HC

Mr Cole, I think (but i could be wrong) you mentioned you were going to give us a release date before christmas, is that still the case? thanks.

Escholl2 · 11-29-2014, 09:31 PM

What can you tell us about the frequency of finding late round gems? Or the frequency of getting a 1st round bust? (For both the CPU and the player)

Francis Cole · 11-30-2014, 01:59 AM

I think we were going to release a screenshot and/or logo before Christmas, not the release date?

I don't have exact % but they will be pretty high.

I'm sure you said you were going to give us some major news before Christmas

Francis Cole · 11-30-2014, 02:54 PM

I think the news was either a screenshot or a logo

dumbrabbit · 11-30-2014, 02:55 PM

I think he wants the game now instead of waiting 9 months for it...

Cap Heresy · 12-08-2014, 12:43 AM

What's the current probability of V1 having MP mode?

Anyone interested in being in the first MP league, send me a PM and I will keep a list of all interested owners.

BradC · 12-10-2014, 10:08 PM

Yes, we're expecting online league support in V1, per our initial announcement. (The last bullet point.)

And what if you have a custom league that isn't 32 teams??

Al Davis · 12-15-2014, 07:09 AM

Looking forward to the screen shot with the release date on it!

Francis Cole · 12-15-2014, 08:58 AM

I didn't promise a release date!

It's still TBD. So I don't know if it will be in V1 or not at this stage.
