There are mod web sites that have modern day and historic NFL rosters.

Go to the game's Steam Community Forum for information about the mods.

I noticed a Tecmo Super Bowl conversion mod, what exactly does this do?

Does anybody have more info on the off-season, free agency, draft, etc? I have searched for further detail with no luck. So sick of waiting for a good football game that depicts the action and is a legit simulation. This game looks intriguing with all the customization and mods.

Career play doesn't have trading, but does have the option of free agency. You toggle it off or on after a season, and you can select up to 5 Free Agents per team (random number generated per team when you do this when you state the maximum.) There's no $$$, it all straight up selecting players.

The Free Agency was added by the programmer this year. He wants to add to career play more next year. This year, he's added a LOT of things people have asked for in other areas, too, but it's just him, and some beta testers for him, creating this game. That's it.

To his credit, he listens to the fans, and at least attempts to give them what they want. Sometimes, he pulls it off, other times, he's got to wait until the next year's game build to try, due to either time constraints or having to redo code to the point it would take another version to do it right.

He's got a 9-5 job, mostly works on the game on weekends and evenings. Right now, he's listening to everyone's input on steam, ironing out bugs that didn't appear in beta, and pushes out bug fixes.

Rosters are currently limited to 43. And it's a set 43. You must have, for example, 2QB, 4RB, 5WR, 3TE, etc. One of the things he wants to accomplish is creating a modern day roster size next year, but that will take a rebuild. He also want to make it so that, if you have historic teams that had, say, only 40 or 45 players on the roster, the game engine will still work.

Thanks for the feedback-it's impressive what he has come up with thus far. I'll keep my eye on it for sure as there aren't too many solid football sims out there. If he adds a legit off-season then I will definitely be interested.

Any idea how this compares to Second and Ten?

If I had to buy one or the other, I'd buy SaT. That said, I wouldn't really recommend either one.

I don't really think the engines of either game provide a good simulation but that's just my opinion.

I have SaT and I've watched enough videos of PSF to know it's not for me. Bad sim, imo.

Re: Pro Strategy Football 2021 now available on Steam

Fair enough. I like SaT, but I can see how it's not for everyone. Our league is on it's second play through using it, and there are some games that have some head scratching outcomes, but can't say we've ever had a season with stats/results that seemed unreasonable.

I started a project with SaT in which I intended to replay every game in Steelers history.

I won the NFL Championship in year 2 (1934) with the Steelers (then called the Pirates. They were 2-10 that year. [emoji52]

I've enjoyed my project replaying the 2003 NCAA season though. I'm using Ole Miss (Eli), NC State (Rivers) and Miami OH (Ben).

SaT is ok. I just got a sour taste from my 1934 experience.

As for PSF, I think it's a game you play if you just want to have some fun, not a good simulation. That's just my opinion based on watching some games on YouTube.

I don't want to see the 74 Steelers running 4 wide or the 76 Steelers playing a 38-35 type game against the Colts. Just my opinion.

Ah, I haven't messed around with any seasons that far back. We started in 1970 (currently in 71).

Are you posting the results of the college project anywhere?

No. Just doing it casually for a fun change of pace from the stuff I'm doing.

When I finish, I'm planning to start the 2004 NFL season with Ben in NY, Eli in SD and Rivers in Pittsburgh just to see what happens. [emoji846]
