    Re: Maximum Football 18 Impressions/Feedback/ Game Details

    None of my questions had been answered, but I decided to purchase anyway.

    I did it for one reason only: I wanted to support a developer who comes here and interacts with us.

    I don't have to speak about the graphics or the lack of any real commentary or the lack of any halftime show. I think those things are expected with a brand-new entry in this space

    I'm a guy who prefers good football over good graphics. I am having a fun time with this game and I'm enjoying the football.

    I was concerned with people reporting they were returning kicks easily for touchdowns. It was probably 13 or 14 returns before I broke one and I haven't broken one since, so I'm pleased with that. I enjoy knowing that there's always a CHANCE.

    I'm struggling to run and I love it.

    I wish there was a way to adjust the camera angle and zoom a little closer to the field.

    I wish there was play art for defense. There is play art on offense

    I'm not sure when the play clock starts, but I selected a 30-second play clock and I was getting multiple delay of games. I changed it to a 40-second play clock and I was giving multiple delay of games. I finally just turned it off so I could take my time and enjoy it.

    Kicking well eludes me as its mapped to the left stick and of course, we are used to the right stick for kicking.

    I believe the very few sliders that are in the game actuallynwork. it may only be one slider now that I think about I changed the receiver catch modifier down to 85 and I saw a ton of drops. I was pleased to see that it had that much of an effect.

    I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the ability to share rosters and hoping that some of the guru's out there make some really good rosters.

    I hope every single person who comes to this form buy this game, if for no other reason than to support the developer. We need more entries in this space

    That said, I am enjoying the football on the field

      Not sure why the scoring drive graphics are only viewable for a few seconds.

      I'm getting handled on NORMAL difficulty in this game even with edited Dickerson (RB), Young (QB) and Borsa (OL) although it's not the running game that's beating me. Someone else brought it up but why are RB's speed only 40 or 45?

        I haven't a clue how to kick the ball with any power. Draw back on the L-Stick and push forward quickly isn't working.

          Just noticed that if I edit a player’s position that change isn’t recognized on the roster screen or in the depth chart

          If anyone is noticing any tricks/quirks/hints as you edit rosters (like the player intelligence tips above), keep them coming - I’ve honestly spent most of my time so far building rosters

          Some low-order wishlist items (ie nice to have but don’t need to have)

          Not sure how easy this is to change but it would be *really* nice to have the CFL 9 teams linked to their CFL 10 counterparts so that I only have to edit the teams once

          Some player movement options would be nice in both the customize section and season section

          The ability to edit stadium, competition, and trophy names would be great

          I also just want to note how much appreciate what the team at Canuck Play is doing, both in terms of the game itself and by listening and responding to fans. I’m rooting for you guys

            Just guessing but you might have to stay within these roster parameters:

            DB-8, DL-4, K-1, LB-4, OL-7, P-1, QB-3, RB-4, SB-3*, WR-8

              The scoring drive graphic should appear there for a while and then you have to hit 'b' on Xbox to close it.

              As for ratings, they are pretty flat across the board out of the box to make sure teams are balanced. It's easier for us to test that way. We figured a lot of people would customize them anyway.

              n the future we'll be looking to give teams more of an identity.

                Quick flick, so down and up all in one fluid motion.

                  We are looking into a potential bug where the depth chart isn't refreshing properly. Development on a hot fix patch started this morning.



                  Thank you for the support!

                    The clock doesn't stop when I run out of bounds.

                    It appears that whichever defender I highlight is 100% manually controlled. Is that in my head or is that correct? I'm not the best at controlling defenders so this is a problem for me

                    There are no defensive audibles?

                      Have any of you guys come up with a favorite team yet?

                      I haven't tried every team but the team I do the best with so far, is Winnipeg

                        What rule set are you on with the clock?

                        If you hit circle or "B" on Xbox, you will be switched to the closest defender to the ball.

                        I believe there are no defensive audibles at this time.

                            I was playing with American rules and sometimes the clock won’t stop also .

                              So I go into season mode I watch a game between Cleveland and Washington . Cleveland beats Washington 31-21 . Isim to the championship game rematch Cleveland and Washington me I like to write notes down on all the games I watch . To my surprise I don’t edit anything as of now I’m on 10 minutes clock off . Washington changed there ganeplan attacking Cleveland with a ground n pound game and got revenge by beating Cleveland 38-28. Was refreshing to see fumbles Pass interference holding false starts and ganeplan changes without having to adjust anything. After some of these bugs get patched things can only get better. Just looks like football not arcade football I have found that using 7 minutes for Canadian teams will give you a realistic amount of plays and 10 with American teams . Still taking notes though so subject to change just got the game yesterday .

                                Okay thanks guys. I’ll try to replicate it and see what the problem is.
