Phoenix · 07-13-2006, 09:27 PM

is it with real or fictional teams?

is it with real or fictional players?

has anyone come up with 32 alternate cities/nicknames for teams?

I've thought about creating a fictional universe and doing a dynasty for it...

But so far I find the 1970 roster file with real draft classes after that to be the most enjoyable.

Fictional teams, fictional players, multiplayer is best.

both are (should ?) be great fun, it's all about how you play the game.
In solo play, I have careers with both the "NFL" teams & players and fictionnal ones and I enjoy them all.

In my opinion, these are the two best FOF 2004 Experiences:

Do any decent MP leagues have openings btw?

I was thinking about setting up a league with 16 North American city teams and 16 teams from cities around the world and running a dynasty off of that.

But right now I'm in the middle of an empty cupboard SP game where I start off with the absolute worst players in the game (0/0 to 8/15 players) and can only build through the draft or sign the absolute worst 1-yr free agents in the game. I'm thinking of limiting my draft picks to defense also.

I'm really doing a study to see how playing time affects guys with no ratings. I want to see if any of these guys turn out to be any good ratings wise.

My first season was 1-15. Not too shabby for a bunch of bums!

I like starting with real players, since it transitions easier for me into the fictional players that come in every year during the draft. I get used to the fictional players over time, instead of having to initially take a lot of time in learning the fictional players.

I can recommend the HFL - I believe that Tampa is available.
