Franchise Hockey Manager 2014 Available on PC/Mac

Hopefully it's a Backbreaker sized patch (minus the fact that it broke other features of the game).

Yeah, the game looks like it could have tremendous potential - even online leagues.
It's the first release, so it's going to have lots of bugs.
But I can imagine once this game has had a few patches, or even by the 2nd annual release, it could be something special.

I started with the Leafs and was able to sign Kadri and Franson which many people said you couldn't. The real problem is that the FA list doesn't seperate RFA and UFA so you have to search through over 3000 FA to find them. I can't, however, offer or get a response from Kessel on a contract extension which kind of sucks.

As for St Louis, there is already a quick start that allows you to play with them. That is support right there.

Im not big Hockey fan but love GM type games.

I'm going to wait until the patch comes out before I attempt a save. It's too buggy for my liking right now and I don't mind waiting. Loving the potential for this game though and it'll be my hockey fix for the season.

I just hope that they allow us to edit jersey numbers in the patch. There are LOTS of errors and it's a little annoying that we can't edit them even on our own teams

I'm a big OOTP fan, but I think I'll wait on this one.

One of the producers said there should be an update on Friday or Saturday that fixes a lot of the crashes, as well as the re-sign glitch.

Still not worth buying.
