    Re: Doug Flutie's Maximum Football - FAQ

    Still loving the level of involvement you guys have and the time you take to answer questions. While I hate there won't be conference title games this year I hope that will be added next year, in addition to a fictional expanded playoff. I mean with this being a fictional universe we're in why not include a 32 team playoff option?

    Anyway, I'm looking forward to playing this one.

      Re: Doug Flutie's Maximum Football - FAQ

      I have a question now: What kind of features might be added with a patch? Is it even going to possible for anything like example a conference championship game or an expanded playoff format? I am betting those aren't things to expect in a patch but I just thought I'd ask and see what kinds of expansions you think are possible with patches this year.

        Those sort of things are probably more invasive than an entirely new feature. We've toyed with the idea of a play designer and a playbook editor as a possible content update.

          Adding a play designer and playbook editor WOULD BE AMAZING

            Maybe that will help the process...at a very basic level, of course.

            Always up for more option plays!

              +1000% On the playbook editor. I’m amazed at what David has been able to do in one year. I can empathize with all the feature request your receiving. A big selling point for me on the OG version of Maximum Football was the play editor so I assume David had interest in that type of game at one time. There has been a void in play editing for the last 20 years since PFS demise. Great way to differentiate your game from being a clone of other games on the market. Excited for your release this month. Best of luck.

                Thank you for the answer. I know from what I've read your team likes to do updates and improvements through the year life cycle. I am looking forward to this game.

                  So, can you upload logos as well? I am just trying to wrap my head around this one. Does this mean that only 50 teams can use updated logos?

                    No - you cannot upload any logos whatsoever. This is detailed here: https://forums.operationsports.com/f...-football.html

                    We have over 200 stock logos, you can assign any one of those to any team's primary logo or helmet logo.

                    We also have a full logo editor within the game. It's on the Main Menu where you use your controller to select a variety of shapes, lines, letters, numbers, animals, etc. It's like using "Paint" but within the game. You can create 50 of those logos and then assign them to team's primary logo or helmet logo.

                      I know you’ve been getting a lot of questions about the logo editor, but I got one more lol. Can you delete a logo or change it once you are done. If you can, does that delete it or change it if it’s being used in a dynasty?

                        Looking at some of the gameplay videos, it looks like a team rankings display on the scorebug regardless of being ranked in the "Top 25" or not. Any chance the developers can make it so only Top 25 rankings display on the scorebug? Anything beyond 25 would just have the team listed w/ no ranking?

                        This game looks awesome and I'm excited to have college football back in my gaming life

                          Yes you can delete and choose it. If a logo is missing that has been assigned to a team, it will display the Canuck Play logo (our company).

                            That's an old build. The scorebug only shows the ranking if you're in the Top 25 - we previously had all teams ranked in the scorebug but it caused a heated debate within our Discord. It's since been changed to be Top 25 only.

                            (so much for trying something new!)

                              Just trying to understand: For example, I make a dog logo in the editor and use it for the Austin team. I have it set as their logo in a dynasty that is now in week 3. I have no more slots open, so I change that dog logo to a shark logo. Does the dog logo in the dynasty get affected? If not, can I use the shark logo in that dynasty as well? Sorry for stupid question but just been on my mind.

                                New isn't always better, and that was the case with having teams ranked outside of the top 25. It looked weird. Fortunately, you guys are listening to what your customers want and corrected it.
