What would be useful for FOF2K7

[claystone]

The thing that would be very useful for the developers to do is add a online software training for this game. It would help alot of new and old players to the game. The online training would be a tutorial that you would see and hear how all functions are used in the game, so people have a better grip and understanding of the game.

This idea hit me when I was using my architectural contract program, and it had this training inwhich in went through the whole program features and how to use them. It was so helpful on understanding the program. They had a practice run so you can follow and get the hang of it.

The way it works would be you ask for tutorial training after that the computer would show you how all items work by showing a moving cursor on your screen along with someone speaking to you.

I hope this tutorial traning can be inputed to this game. What are your thoughts about this. Money should not be a factor here, this is EA..right. If it's not EA, I would invest my money in this game to input this in.

Really, then he did a real good job. I wish he need investors.

He used to by partnering with EA.

I am sure Jim has some options on partnering again with someone other than EA, and he did mention not too long ago that it was his goal to eventually join up with a publisher who could help out especially on the graphical interface side. Time will tell.

Office is over the garage. Basement is child's playroom. Not quite possible to work with "Cars" DVD playing continuously 12 hours a day.

So I'm not alone in being able to recite the whole script then! :D

Well Jim, you did a great job on the game in those conditions. There are things I wish could be added, but all in all it's a great game.

I was alittle off when I found out the game had no graphics, but its not bad. I still wish the game form stayed the same way, but with graphics showing your team playing your opponent like coaches mode from Madden.
See, madden doesn't have that realism of GM a team where salary cap works or players getting injured. Its too arcade, where as your game salary cap is a big factor and players actually get hurt where you need depth for your team which I love.

So, if you can take what you have and add graphic gameplay so you see how your team is performing and you can watch your team go head to head with your opponent would be great especially in a FOF League. I play in a leaguepule madden coaches league and its a blast, but the backoffice stuff that you have are missing leaving you feeling empty, not getting the full amount. With your game, a blast as well, I'm still feeling alittle empty because I can't see my players play. I hope this can change in the future.

If at anytime this is something that you want to create and need investors, shot me a line.

The problem with watching a game in Madden is all the players, even the kickers look like linebackers. They are juiced for sure!

I know, that can be fixed. You can see who is getting beat on passing routes, who is not protecting the QB and why. You can see why your running back is getting stuff at the line.

Also, which I just read in a thread, why is my DT making a tackle 13 yards down the field on a WR. I find it very helpful see my players play. You see why your opponents gameplan.

Don't get me wrong, I love the game, but I would love it more seeing the game as well.

This is indeed an awesome game. The only thing I would like to see changed is the option to start a league with 28 teams.
