I'm sure they'll be giving away some copies for free with contests or something. Not that I know for sure, but they had some for TPB.

haha. Silly lady, I don't win things, it just doesn't happen. I won Loren and that was the end of it, but who needs anything more right? But if I kiss ass like this enough, I should be able to buy the game.

Time to get 6.5 then and REVIVE MY ootp 5 dynasty that disappeared when my laptop died..My pitcher was arguably the Brock Sherriff of baseball, now he's gone and just a mere Dean Houston.

Game play screen looks good. Now all you need is little dots on the field showing the play as it happens.

Arles -

Looks nice. Good information on the screens.

However, the matchup screen shows that you're using the NFL Passer Rating formula instead of the NCAA formula. Those statistics lead to a 157.08 NFL rating but a 229.50 NCAA rating.

Yeah, there's a ticket for that from our Beta team. I probably should have fixed that before posting it.

Looks like the left side of the defense is the left side of the offense from the one screen shot. I'm gonna have to keep this in mind after being so used to FOF/TCY, where the defenses left is their left.

Good point. The main emphasis in the setup is to make sure the strong side LB lines over the TE. And that is still the case in BBCF.

Is that Right - Left setup on the PBP something that will bother people? Because I can easily change the frame of reference to put the LDE over the RT and vic versa.

I think changing it would definitely be worthwhile. I believe that's pretty standard football terminology.

For me, I'm so used to the idea that the Left/Right thing is based on the orientation of the unit in question that it would take a bit of getting used to the thought that the LDE lines up across from the LT. But I'm sure I'd adapt.

Is the primary CB/secondary CB a presentation thing? Will we be able to align our CBs based on side (left CB/right CB)?

Definitely the orientation of the defense needs to be changed.

Also, I trust that FG percentage is going to be looked at before release.

The overall percentage of the Top 100 kickers by FG/Gm in Division 1-A right now is .734.

This is 439 made out of 598 attempted.

The Top 100 goes all the way down to the kickers that have made 1 field goal in 3 games, so it's fairly comprehensive for our purpose here.

Obviously a small sample size, but that's why the 4 for 10 for kickers from BCS Conference schools really jumped out at me.

*drooling almost as much for this as for FM2006*

and we all know that to me FM2006 is the ultimate drool game right now, so Arlie I think you've certainly lived up to the hype so far (at least if she plays as pretty as she looks).

It was .704 for the entire 2004 season (once again based on the Top 100 in FGM/Gm).
