As an avid fan of baseball and American football, who has loved OOTP since '08, this is so EXCITING that I can hardly believe it. If BTS turns out half as good as OOTP, it's gonna be one beast of a sim!!!
All I can say is THANK YOU Markus and everyone else at OOTP Developments |

We'll accept applications once we come closer to beta, so in about 9-12 months I guess.

Well, OOTP now covers baseball, hockey, and football. I'm never going to have to watch live sports again.

an NFL sim with roots from OOTP and FM - there are not enough dancing bananas to express my joy.
I can see now my marriage, retirement accounts and kids are all going to suffer greatly - but that is OK I will just sit in my office an alternate playing OOTP and BTS all day long and be happy.

When can we start pre-ordering?
BTS could outsell OOTP within 5 years of its first release. Football is such a huge sport and from what I've seen there's nothing on the market that even compares to what OOTP can put out. I definitely think this is a great idea by OOTP and like I said, could eventually be the leading product for the company. Last edited by Erik; 01-31-2014 at 01:34 PM. |

Great news, Guys!
Simulating American Football will challenge your analysis and design skills more than any other sport (because of the coordination of action between players on the same side). I have confidence, though, that OOTP Dev will meet the challenge and exceed the quality of that which has already been produced. Good luck! |

Yes!!!!
Markus, I can't wait to see the finished product and I know your people will do a fantastic job! I had resigned myself to the fact this day would never come and was preparing to buy a football sim from another company. Looks like I get to save my money until 2015! Needless to say, my wife wasn't nearly as thrilled by the news as I am, but I can't stop smiling.

It's great that you guys have a great base to build from OOTP. Hopefully this means the devs can be freed to focus on getting the intricacies of football perfected through AI and game play.
Also football is less about stats and more about personal traits, tendencies, and story lines. The human element is so important. So I hope those features of OOTP make it into this game. |

But... b) and I don't want to spoil the party, I'm glad FHM has been such a success for your company. Because it certainly hasn't been for the average customer. This sentence feels like punch into my stomach. |

Is there going to be a package price deal to pick up all three games in 2015?

I've been thinking about BTS all day. Excited doesn't really capture my feeling about the news. After telling my wife that the developers of OOTP are creating a football sim she said "Oh great. Now I won't see you at all!"
OOTP, FHM, now BTS. Absoultely amazing. Thank you Markus and the entire OOTP Development team. |
