Never played a hockey game on PC

If I download is there a mode where I can try before buying. Not sure what I'd be getting myself in to
Thanks

OOPT17 used to have a demo. Its baseball, but the format is the same. I became interested after playing the OOPT17 Demo, but baseball is just not my thing. I love FMH 3 though.

As someone brand new, it was very intimidating at first with all of the option, but you can automate almost all of the coaching and I found just playing one season and accepting that it would be awful, and just playing with the features, helped me to feel much more comfortable with the game.

OOTP offers a refund period of 14 days for their games if purchased straight from them. I don't know what steams policy is. So you're option is to buy it and if you don't like it to get a refund (by submitting a ticket) before the window.

What was your post that got deleted? We don't delete posts just because they're negative or critical. I'm sorry if someone deleted yours unfairly.

Send me an email or PM with details and I'll try to look into the issue a bit further.

EDIT: All I see from recent posts is you saying we should have a demo and Jeff and Sebastian explaining why we don't and that we have a liberal refund policy that basically allows you to try the game for a while and ask for your money back if you don't like it. Basically a demo, to all intents and purposes.

You may be right or wrong in your opinion, but we've had to make a decision on whether it's worth it to invest our limited time and resources as a small company into a demo. We decided it wasn't. We'll take your opinion into account and consider it, but we're not out to get you or make things hard on you at all. We just had to make a tough decision and sadly it's not one you agree with.

We're sorry about that but if we're wrong, we're the ones losing out, not you. Ultimately it's also not really worth fighting over, is it?

We appreciate that you like and have supported OOTP baseball. We'd love you to try FHM, but if you can't do that, it's your call and we respect that.

Your opinion is valuable and we're taking it into account, but we can't act on every opinion we get, even though we do value all of them.

Alessandro just tried to help you with his (he is not associated with the company) review of the game. I´m not sure why you are angry now on him or OOTP Developments. And as far as I can see there was no post deleted, so please let us know which of your posts got deleted and we will look into it.

Your post wasn't deleted. You posted that in a different thread.

A quick check of your post history uncovered this knowledge.

You said you never played any hockey game on PC. I think that a good review can help in understanding what you can expect and not expect from a game. My article tries to explore all the areas of the game to give a final rating of the game. I also think that it can help to understand if the game is what a particular user is or is not searching for.
