Following a game

MizzouRah · 11-24-2006, 04:31 PM

Love so much of the new "stuff" in the game, but for some reason I'm finding it harder for me to follow a game when watching the text scroll on the screen.

I know I'm in the minority when I say for me, there is too much information in the enhanced pbp.. I liked the old style.

Maybe I'll get used to it.

MINORITY MINORITY MINORITY!!!

naw seriously, hope you get used to it. it really is much more "fun" to watch

edit: IMO of course

It's getting better.

I am amazed at how different I play FOF this time around.

that's pretty amazing isn't it? that the core gameplay can remain the same but a few little things can so fundamentally alter the way that people play the game.

kudos!

I find it much more difficult to tear myself away from reading every line, since it almost gives you a picture to imagine of what is happening on the field.

I almost feel that it should simplify the PBP if you turn the game speed up. Having to skim through all those lines that are scrolling so quickly just so you can figure out how successful your last play was and where you are now is kinda annoying.

Me too. I never played so slowly or enjoyed playing slowly so much as I do now. Now, I watch Solevision every week and watch at least my game and usually a few others too, especially late in the season.

It's definitly been tougher for me to adjust right now.

I don't necessarily watch other games but I keep track of their score while my game is going on. It's pretty fun that way. I needed Denver to lose so I could get into the playoffs and I was rooting for San Diego all the way. Probably one of the few times I would do that.

Yeah, for now I "watch" my game via Solevision and also keep a close eye on the other games. That way, I can look at stats and such while not keeping such a close eye on my game. It's definitly a different way to play FOF for me.
