Re: What game do you want?
I want that for all sports. I think a company could charge quite a bit of money for something like that.Comment

Re: What game do you want?
My dream game: I know how unrealistic and unlikely it is but here I go.
The most in-depth football game ever made. You start as a high school football player, getting to fully customize everything about your 16 year-old character in the most depth ever. You go through practices and games starting your junior (or maybe even sophomore) year and try to win a state championship every year, but more importantly, earn a scholarship. And this won't be an easy "Go anywhere you want" kind of a thing like NCAA Football - you'll really have to earn it. In my perfect game, it would have full Div. III, Div. II, and Div. I FBS and FCS schools for you to choose from. If you didn't earn a scholarship you would get to walk on somewhere and if you sucked and walked on at USC, you wouldn't play for four years except maybe field goal team your senior year and it'd be really boring for you.
After you got to college the game continues with just you at your position, not calling plays, having to balance your time in college and try to learn new plays and keep getting better. You will constantly have your position coach breathing down your back and if you don't perform, you'll lose your starting job (assuming you've earned it). Your goals are conference and national championships of course, and every game would have the full pageantry and atmosphere of the college game.
Here is where it really gets interesting. After you graduate (or early if you're really something), you can decide you want to go pro - full NFL and CFL teams, rules, and rosters - or you can pursue your coaching career. If you go pro, everything continues with you getting drafted - hopefully in the NFL, but if not, into the CFL with the chance to get to move to the big time later - and continuing your progression as a player through the big time. Eventually, your performance will peak, and with age you'll get worse. If you don't choose to retire, the point will come where you won't get resigned or will get cut and your playing career will be over. Then you'll get to move on to the coaching aspect anyways.
The coaching part will start with you getting offered certain jobs - perhaps you'll be offered a positional coach spot in D2 ball or you can take a head coach job at high school. It'll be up to you. Position coaches will have to run their position through drills in practice and will get to set the depth chart for all players at their positions. As a coach you will not be able to see the "OVR" rating that we're so used to in games today so you will have to base it off of other grades (which will be fluid) as well as performance. If your position performs well enough, you can get promoted to a coordinator slot or move on to another school. Coordinators call the plays for their side of the ball and work with the head coach. If your philosophy doesn't match with the head coaches', you'll probably not last long. You can also ask the HC to remove position coaches on your side of the ball that you feel are not performing well enough. If you do well enough in this capacity, it'll be another possible promotion or moving on to another job. And of course, every level will have something different for the coach to do. The pros will obviously deal with the draft, free agency, etc. College will have recruiting and transfers. High school will have you trying to convince certain one-sport athletes at the school to come out for football. Wouldn't you love convincing the school's soccer star to play football and having him nail the 50 yard kick in the championship game for the win?
This path of progression as a coach through high school, all three divisions of college, and potentially professional football will continue until your character reaches the age of 100 at which point the game will show you keeling over and dying on the sideline (or press box if still coordinator) of a heart attackMeanwhile throughout the entire 84 years of a single "Career Mode" it will show your character aging realistically. If you built yourself as a 6'5'', 290 lb offensive lineman as a high schooler, you will be Mark Mangino as a coach.
There's probably a few things I left out but I would absolutely love this game. If I ever get rich enough in my life, I'll make my own studio and develop it. For example, if you want you can skip the playing part and make your own guy (filling in his age) to start as a coach, but he will definitely have to start as high school positional coach, or something like that.Comment

Re: What game do you want?
Without going into huge detail i just want a realistic NCAA/NFL simulation game. Where each game differs, there are no exploits (outside of what real teams do). WIth real logic, not crappy pre-determined AI.
I want to be able to pick up a game and feel like it could go either way if its evenly matched, or i could go 4-12. I want to feel like i have to scout to build my team up in the draft and not have the CPU draft like an idiot.
I want the fluctuation,t he upsets, the ability to have an almost real life experience where each game matters, not where each game feels like a chore. I want real injuries with backups stepping up, or hampering my season.....
Thats enough detail for now, but i want to relive Sunday (and Saturday) football on my console. Can't we merge the better parts of NCAA/Madden/Head Coach and then add to it, than make 3 separate games that are sub par but have a few good points?Check out my Tampa Bay Buccaneers CFM Thread.
You too can be a 5* recruit at FSU.......

Re: What game do you want?
One game I want is one that has been talked about, but hasn't been released. All Points Bulletin.
The point of the game is to go online, and choose whether you want to be a police officer or a thug. Then it is an open world from there, as cops try to keep the peace and thugs try to steal and create havoc without getting arrested.Comment

Re: What game do you want?
CS1 that game idea you mentioned sounds like The Sims on all kinds of stimulants and steroids!
I'd like it too so
I know it would never happen but it'd be cool to have a graphical game like those games like OOTP but it's for NFL football and you start in, oh 1960 that way you can choose to be an AFL or NFL franchise. You'd basically control every aspect of the team and the destiny of said team.
I mean, imagine if you took over the then St. Louis Cardinals and build them into a powerhouse. I would love it if I could hire Don Coryell in the early '70s and NOT fire him over the most stupid reason. Who knows, the team would probably still be in STL.
Of course, you'd need the likenesses of every player from '60 to present which is unlikely, have impressionists or computer simulated vocalizations for the broadcasters of the day, accurate uniforms and stadiums etc etc. It'd be too much of a task to do but a man can dream?Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club
