I am curious but is there any news on Francis? I was looking around the sire and thought I wonder how he is doing?

Yes...I know I want an update as they stated in that post. I'm hoping we hear something that makes me want to keep checking here to see if there's been progress.

After years of work, we've come to the conclusion that only Francis Cole has the ability and knowledge to complete his design. Unfortunately, his illness makes that work impossible. We wish him the best in his recovery.

But don't worry, the OOTP football project is not dead. We are starting a new football game project (based on the OOTP and FHM interfaces) with a new name (yet to be determined) and with a new development team. At this time, it's far too early to comment on details, only that we are committed to creating a quality product that establishes us as a market leader right from the first release.

We hope to release this product late 2018. Early next year, when we have determined the final feature set, we will open up a new OOTP football forum and we'll have detailed discussions about this new game. We are very excited about the future, so please stay tuned!

Markus & the entire OOTP Developments Team

I'm a developer myself. I'd be happy to volunteer my time & efforts to helping make a game. Will sign NDA if needed.

I'd be willing to work on visuals/design too. Get in touch, anyone, if there's something I can do.

Perhaps, but I am betting on this game before the Cleveland Browns ever make the playoffs.

mickey7 · 01-04-2018, 10:16 PM

So jeffw3000 you don't believe the Browns will ever reach the playoffs again ??? Because that's when you'll see this game !!

Rosco Peabody · 01-10-2018, 09:18 PM

james17 · 01-11-2018, 01:53 AM

How about anything at all? Is the project still alive?

Well he commented on the naming thread the other day that they were discussing a name, so the project has to be alive, but yes, I'd like to hear something

Did you not check the other stickied thread in this forum ? It was recently announced that OOTP Developments has partnered with Jim of Front Office Football and the next game in that series will be released by OOTPD likely in late 2018.

But how late?

Football free agency and the upcoming draft gets us excited!
And of course the good work they put in around here.

Jim's games have usually come out around November if I am not mistaking.
