When is the update?

I do not start playing seriously because there are a lot of mistakes. I am waiting for an update when it should be?

Jeff stated that the first update was due early next week when the game was released on Friday.

The developers are pretty good about releasing regular patches for these games, at least that was my experience with FHM 4.

It'll probably be slightly later in the week, we did some database stuff that requires a bunch of manual checking from me, and we're still trying to nail down a couple of the bigger problems.

Jeff - Do you expect the scouting reports to be corrected in this update?

They are already fixed, so yes.

The offensive and physical preference is only used as a guideline for the AI when making its tactical choices - it's not actually affecting anything directly, only the AI tendencies to choose particular options, e.g. offensive will make attacking-oriented choices. If you're coaching yourself, it's not doing anything at all to your tactics, just indicating what the AI thinks the appropriate orientation is in that situation. The only time it'd be relevant to a human player is if we added the option to get in-game tactical advice from your assistant, and in that case you'd still be able to set it to what you wanted before getting that advice.

What is being doing to help online leagues in this update? I read somewhere its suggested to wait for this update to start our league.

If its not uploading/downloading the league files, do we have a timetable for that feature?

Looks like the update will have to be pushed back to Friday, we found some things that'll need to be fixed and there won't be enough time to do it properly and get it tested by tomorrow.

I would be interested in an answer here as well.

It might just be better to wait until they say "we think the game is stable enough now... Go ahead and start your league." It'd be a shame to lose a structure because of a critical fail or an update that makes an online save unplayable.

Thanks, for the update. Please take your time to get everything in good shape. I suggest waiting until next Friday. I don't want to start a game and get everything setup, only to have to do it all over again.

Question: what could go wrong by starting the file now? I mean, we can wait until two, three, four, etc game updates to start playing but what's wrong with setting up the league file now? Just wondering, I don't want to have anything get screwed up because I 'started my league file too soon'.

Just create a Quickstart Save and you can load that if you aren't happy with the update.

What is your time-frame for releasing the next Patch? There still seem to be issues (based on Forum posts) that were not resolved with the recent Patch release.
