Agreed.

I was half tempted to make a long post there, and then decided Daivd took the right course of action.

Comparing these two releases is so laughable.

Yeah, it is also good to see that he is still supporting the game after all this time. He has toned down quite a bit in the last few months and deals with difficult people much better now. If you look at GWsFBA's posts and how David handles them, his responses are actually coming off much more professional. While I still think it was unexcusable to release the game in the state it was in, he could possibly have a decent game in another year or two.

Ha ha ha, good old Antmeister...like Charlie Brown hoping to finally kick that football, ever the optimist. :)

I am a horrible person.

And this is how Maximum Football ends. With a giant bug.

Kinda fitting, when you think about it.

Oh Please. It will never be over

In fact, we've only just begun.

(Sidebar: Post 580! (WOO-HOO!)

Damnit.

I am thankful for this thread.

Bubba, what were you thinking?

That he wanted to start the greatest thread.....EVER!!!

So...did the ultra secret, gold-plated beta version 3.15 patch ever get released?

Fixed.

In a sick way, I'm sure Bubba does not regret this thread as it made him part of FOFC history and lore.

Almost like Jeffrey Dahmer in American history.

I'm going to take the plunge! When I get home.........I'm going to read this thread, cover to cover. How long will it take me? This might have to be a poll.

You'll laugh. You'll cry. It will be the best of times, and the worst of times. You will be reading until the wee hours of the morning. But it will be worth it. Better than anything from Oprah's Book of the Month Club. Better than any Jack Chick tract. Better than the Lord of the Rings combined with the Chronicles of Narnia. Call me Ishmael.

It is A.LLL.IIIII.VVE! :D

what is better Maximum Football or FOF 2k7?

thanks :)

Now, my life is complete.

And what a sad life it has become.

A+

Terrible jbmagic impression. The "is" ruins the illusion.

It can't be done in one sitting. No way.

This is the thread. This is the Golden Era right here boys. There will never be another thread that tops this thread at FOFC. The Threadkiller thread doesnt even come close to this baby. How much farther will this thread go? 200 Pages? 1000 pages? This thread will live on forever.

Posting so the "threadkiller extraordinaire" doesn't live up to his reputation

Dola - even when jb posts a *funny* parody of himself, he screws it up and gets called out on it. This thread pwns.

Kudos jb, well done.:D Only jb could create a self parody that was unintentially more intelligible than the real thing, classic.

Nearly to 100

How many people are paying close attention to this thread just so they can try to get the first post on page 100?

This thread has been near death for ages. The only people posting are those that are dying to see it reach 100.

Except me, of course.

We need some more actual MF content to get this thread going again. As it stands now, it's just a lot of people posting for no reason.

Except me, of course.

True. But it would be nice to actually know what is being fixed on each patch in FOF.

I think that 5,000 posts will probably be the symbolic breaking point. I can't see much effort to keep this going after that.

Speaking of Maximum Football, what is up with Maximum Football? I've popped over the the Matrix Forums once or twice, but I get too creeped out by that JAsoNGreAtGODiHavEAFreAKISHlylOnGSCreeNNAmeAndOhYeahByTHEWaYIAmTotallyBATShiTinSaneSTartInGNOvemBer32nd2056 guy.

I got a sense that the game was starting to be pretty playable after the open beta. Am I right about that?

This thread needs more limerick.

There once was a man from Nantucket...

Not too sure. The ones saying that it is playable are the ones who are convinced that the game was fairly solid, and only needing a few tweaks, back when it was released.

Agreed. And still there is no demo to speak of. Even after his most recent patch. It may actually be playable, but it makes you wonder if he is just afraid to put a demo out there because he fear more criticism.

Whats maximum football?

This has become the War and Peace of the FOFC.

Didn't we try that last page?

I'm afraid of what will happen when it gets to 100.

Well after a short glance at the public beta forum I came across a problem where QBs can't hit receivers in stride on any type of crossing pattern.

It looks like a lot of things are better, but it still has a long way to go.

We must not stop until this thread has more posts than Jeeber.

We got a long road ahead of us, but I'm sure Jbmagic and the Maximum Football developer will give us enough fodder to get there.

Shhhhhh...

That's ok, SkyDog will delete the thread when it gets to page 101

I <3 SirFozzie's signature :)

*grumbles*

Noooooooo.........

It ought to read Chicago Bears. :)

Sargeant Grumbles

Damn you!

oh god

Maybe we should count the posts from each person in this thread.

It was done probably 50+ pages ago. :)

You can do that anytime you want by clicking on the replies # on the main page.

Did Bubba try to delete this on his way out of FOFC? What a bitchy thing to do.

Uh....we shouldn't need to know about that. ;)

Bubba left FOFC?

When'd this happen?

In the "Lions Fan" thread. He announced that Matt Millen was going to be fired and then said something about his work being done and that he was done with FOFC. Of course, I don't believe that BubbaWheels is gone forever. He'll be back...they always are.

Hey, this is my Satan Post...#666! Whoo hoo...where's that goat?

Didn't I tell y'all that he did?

In before the lock!

Silly Boy, I have no intention of killing this thread off. You cant kill a thread like this!

I think you mentioned it about 40 pages ago.

God, I couldn't do it. My 7 month old had to eat 3x before I could get done. No way I can do it in one sitting.

Almost to 5,000 posts!

The good news is that it is like setting a gameplan. Once you have put in the time up front to do it, all it takes is a little time to update it going forward.

Ummmmmm....I guess the stats are pretty much fixed now.
 

Meaning that they are fixed for your displeasure. Here is the what was mentioned in the thread:

But to properly assess these screens, we need the following information:

• Computer Frame Rate
• Amount of RAM (total of all devices:motherboard, video card, cache on hard drive, etc.)
• Build number of the pre-Beta Release Candidate Gold patch that was installed
• Version of DirectX 6 installed
• Ambient Room Temperature
• If you are using a Cyrix co-processor (thought this was addressed in earlier builds (circa 2001), but maybe it is rearing it's ugly head again)
• Which version of Photoshop was used to create the uniforms (there appears to be an incompatibility between 7 and CS2)

I also love that in the 2nd screenshot the leading receiver had 1 catch for 67 yards

Someone really needs to invite GWFBAsswhite into an MP league just for the UIC.

I would never wish that upon a league commish. At least one that I liked...

:D

So you're saying that you're going to send him to Shipman's league? ;)

Yer damn right if I throw a 125 frikkin yard pass it better be worth 3 TDs. I mean, 125 yards, biatches!!!

Honestly, though, I miss the good old days, when we could throw passes over 200 yards. Ever since this game became playable, the quarterbacks all suck.

dola, and I've been thinking, with 100 pages and counting, isn't this thread filling up too many internet tubes?

Not enough my friend, not enough...

Just because I might be the only one on the board that hasn't posted in this thread.

Bump. Let us not forget the true mf-ing MF thread.

One hundred pages already... wow. I don't think I've read the last 60 or so.

Every time you bump this thread, somewhere a SQL database is huddled in a corner in the fetal position, crying like a little girl...

This guy is destined to be the greatest league commissioner in MF history!

http://www.blindsideblitz.com/mlf/?

He has even customized the Gregorian calender.

Good thing he didn't name the league Major Internet League Football...

:D

Anyone get MF for Chrsitams?

Nobody?

The mind reels of names of asshats who got this in lieu of coal.

Hey, can anyone tell me if this game is any good?

And people will read this and wonder why everyone in that other thread is saying David Winters is getting off lucky.... :D

I can provide you uniform designs and field logos for my Might Morphin Power Ranger League teams, if you want to test.

2/3 of the time it is ok.

Depends..whats yer framerate?

never heard of it

You guys are desperately trying to reach 5000 posts. Dammit....only ten more to go.

Only 100 pages and 4990 posts?

Damnit, this game is what we thought it was, and we let it off the hook.

And the countdown to 5,000 has begun...

Sometimes I feel like a threadkiller...

But not today you don't.

There can be only none.

Wouldn't it be awesome if Ben locked the thread with 4,998 replies? :D

Fixed

Almost there

Hi
