Media involvement

Footsy · 06-28-2006, 04:36 PM

Apologies if this suggestion has already been made (a quick search on the forums did not get any results) but is it possible to incorporate more media involvement. I do not mean the articles and posts regarding players getting 3 dingers, hitting for the cylce and such, but more "off the field" comments/articles such as players criticizing (other) players, teams, managers (giving more info on hidden statistics (leadership, loyalty etc) and the possibility as manager to react to these comments. Or to comment about the game in general, your major opposing rival etc.

This feature is implemented in SI's Football Manager series and would enhance the realism of OOTP.

Is this being considered as a new feature (if so, probably not for a patch, but for OOTP07, 08 or 09) or have I completely missed it and is it already in OOTP2006?

I know this is a long term aspect they want to get in the game. Other stuff comes first now, like no CTD, good AI and reducing silly transactions.
