Away to buy this - Few questions

CautiousPaul · 02-21-2012, 10:15 AM

I found this today, as a quite new NFL fan from Scotland (3-4 years now) and been looking for an NFL coaching game as the Madden Franchise mode just doesnt do enough for me.

EA Head Coach just didnt look great and now I have found this, it looks amazing to me, and is exactly what i'm looking for. As a Football Manager and EWR fan, txt based games are excellent fun and better than most modern games in my opinion.

Anyway less rambling, here's my questions.

1/ Can the game be edited in-game or do I need to download a utility/patch for this?

2/ Is there a patch to update to the correct full team names?

3/ Does the 6.4 update have the most up to date rosters? Again if not where do I find them, or can I do this myself?

I'll probably have more, but as long as I can have the real teams and players and relatively up to date I'll be happy!

Thanks in Advance

Paul

You can start the game with custom rosters. There are folks who release them on the forums for various NFL years, and if you want to get down to spread-sheeting, you can do it yourself, as well.

The team names are all the NFL team names out of the box, as far as I can remember.

The last update has up to date rosters for whenever it was that it came out.

Hope that helps!

By the way, this game has an interface and a learning curve that can take some time getting used to. I played many seasons of SP without having a clue of what was going on (still fun, though) When you get past the initial curve, it gets really interesting...join a multiplayer league, where some vets can give you tips!

The team names can be changed in the game. Just need to do that once then all the new leagues you make will have the names you type in.

I love this game! Best 25 dollars I've spent in a while...wish I'd known about it sooner.

Led San Diego to a 35-3 win over Kansas, Clayton with 3 Td's and 117yds receiving!

Can't wait for the weekend so I can just play it all day!

I dunno about "Cautious" there, Paul -- buying a game a scant 6 years after it came to market seems pretty risky to me.

Paul, check out the multi-player forum for some additional fun. We’re looking for new owners in the eNFL. The season is just starting, so a great time to jump in.>>
