I apologize for the tangent here but NFL's Game Rewind (which is decently priced even though it's well and truly an NFL product) allows you to watch games condensed down to pretty much only on the field action. It's fantastic if you want to check out a few other games from the week.

The downside is that the games aren't up on Rewind until (at the latest) 24 hours later and sometimes the coaches film takes a while to get put up (can watch from multiple angles).

I have looked at that but the time difference is so long it does not work.

Francis Cole · 03-16-2015, 10:37 AM

In England we have GamePass, all the games (bar 2 per Sunday which are live on subscription TV) are live. Playoffs are delayed 24 hours though (as they are shown live on this TV station). As I don't own that TV channel it's annoying for the playoffs.

Article 4 of the NFL overtime rules states:" There shall be a MAXIMUM of one 15 minute overtime period, even if the 2nd possession team never had a chance to possess the ball."

I think in real life it would continue to the second period, so we'll do that.

Article 4 of the NFL rulebook concerning overtime states that there will be only one 15 minute period, even if the team that kicked off, never touches the ball.

Francis Cole · 03-17-2015, 07:49 AM

I don't even remember writing that

I have another dumb question about the game.

If the Lions and Browns are playing in the Super Bowl and its scoreless in the third quarter and a train goes by the stadium and blows its whistle and both teams leave the field thinking the game is over,would the game be a double forfeit(no winner)?

With the Browns and Lions ,its possible.

dumbrabbit · 03-17-2015, 10:34 AM

I have a dumb question.

Will the Browns win a Super Bowl in this game? If so, you might want to change that.

orcrist · 03-17-2015, 10:38 AM

Any information about the beta/demo launching date?

Will be possible customize player and kits images like Football Manager?

Francis Cole · 03-17-2015, 11:11 AM

There's no info on the beta/demo/release launch date yet!

We still have yet to determine what we will have in terms of caps, or just a plain jersey or the full thing with a helmet etc.

james17 · 03-17-2015, 06:06 PM

Don't know if this has been asked before but I haven't seen it:

Will it be possible to play the game with fictional players like OOTP can?

Francis Cole · 03-17-2015, 06:16 PM

Yes.

james17 · 03-17-2015, 06:41 PM

Cool!

mpejkrm · 03-17-2015, 09:14 PM

Q: How about FaceGen?
A: That will also operate the same way it does in OOTP, except players will likely wear helmets without face guards, rather than baseball caps. However, they will age over time, like they do in OOTP.

From the OP.

Koprnkc · 03-18-2015, 08:24 PM

What will the medical reports be like? Will there be a human outline filled in with green, and say a bad knee will be red, a injury that would be cautionary be yellow?

Or will there be a detailed report from your staff that says RB Joe Smith has had 3 operations on his right knee, but the knee still does not appear structually sound, or the knee is better then new.

I seem to recall several hundred post back that this was briefly touched on.

Francis Cole · 03-18-2015, 08:44 PM

Currently on the health screen which every player has there is:

An image of a body with the various parts of the body coloured from red (that part of the body is completely ruined) to green (completly healthy).

There is also a textual description such as "Knees: Serious Red Flags, "Head: Major Concern" etc.

There is also a list of all the injuries the player has got throughout his career.

OK..how about a few screenshots to whet our appetite even more.

phillyboy19 · 03-21-2015, 06:48 PM

Francis I have a question about draft classes, because in ootp baseball there are real draft classes, so for the first 4 years of your dynasty's will there be real players because I want to draft Drew Harris a RB from Virginia Tech who went to one of my local high schools. Also will you be able to sign any senior from the last years class, even if they were a backup on their college team.
