We appreciate the feedback! Frankly I don't understand why one has anything to do with the other but you're entitled to feel that way.

We are all working tirelessly every day - days, nights, weekends, holidays - to deliver the best games possible to our fans. Anything less is not acceptable. We'll deliver the football game when it meets the standards we've set for the company, and we'll talk about it when there is something material to discuss.

Any chances of talking with Jim Gindin and talking about OOTP working with FOF? An update on progress? There's been little exposure on it and it seems like Jim has been kinda left hanging on the project. Pro football is massive and adding a sim with the quality OOTP can provide would be fantastic.

Thank you! I talk to Jim all the time. Just not in a public forum yet.

When we are all in a place where there are material things to discuss about the football game, trust me, we will. We're never going to get ahead of ourselves again though. We've learned our lessons.

Rich, I appreciate all that you and the entire team at OOTP is doing especially during this pandemic. All the games you produce are first-class and I have no doubt that when the time is right for releasing a pro football game, it will be first-class as well. Right now, I'm too busy enjoying OOTP21. Love it!

I have always been a solo player that plays modern MLB, historical, and random debut. When Perfect Team first came out i did not think it was my cup of tea, but after listening to the POD cast I have been convinced to try Perfect Team.

Rich, do you have any videos that give instructions on adjusting the animation screen views?

I couldn't find anything in the manual... was it covered in any new features video?
I do trial-and-error adjustments, but it would really be good to know the proper way to do it to fit my needs.

Would appreciate any help you might give.
