RendeR,

You can ask over at their forums, they are usually pretty fast answering questions over there.

I'm assuming for now its just a delay in processing through paypal. If I don't get something by morning I'll contact the game people.

I a couple of you guys had some pretty good feedback and suggestions but I don't see any of them unless they were already added. For me the big turnoff was the genric minors. I would of liked it to be alittle more options in the minors like EHM had.

RendeR · 02-05-2009, 02:06 PM

I have a major issue with teams up in the third period adding 4 or 5 goals to their total as the game ends.

I've had numerous 3-2 games end 7-2 or 8-3. Its a bit much.

That is the only thing i miss in this game. What i love from ehm is to draft players, send them to farm teams or let them play in Europe etc, follow their development, and call them up when needed. With just a generic minor team, you miss all those fun management options.

It's been fun to play and he has a lot of great suggestions to add to v10.

I still play a few hours a week.

2.06 is out

I'm a big fan of sims that are straight forward and not overly complex.. what can I say.. FBCB, BM 09, FOF and this hockey game.

I love the "turn" based style of the game, the newspaper you get after each game, etc.. you can get as deep as you want or take a wait and see approach to this game as you learn how things work.

My Blues are in the hunt for the playoffs and it's exciting when one of my young guns go on a tear or I bring up a young tough guy who makes BigDeal Ramon's list of tough guys.

The game has a few odds and ends, but it's become one of my favorites.

OKay so how would you guys rank this game versus the free Eastside Hockey Manager and EHM 2007?

I guess that would depend on what you are looking for.

This game is fun and keeps u busy while simming through seasons at a decent pace. Its not as deep as EHM if you are looking for something more in depth. I prefer this game mostly because EHM is out of date now and the little added stuff in this game like fantasy drafts and interviews.

RendeR · 05-24-2009, 07:56 AM

I go back to this every now and then but the game by game tedium is getting to me. I want to sim 4-5 games at a time, sometimes more if I know where the team is going or I'm happy with my lineup.

That is my only issue with it and why i stopped to play it. I don't like at all the game sim screen, it's not pbp until the last second of the game where you see a breakaway or goal chance and it can be a goal or miss. it could be exciting once, but not on every sim.

As you can't avoid it, it became really annoying for me. I would prefer or a full pbp or just a box score and quick sim.

MizzouRah · 05-24-2009, 08:52 AM

I play it regularly.. the developer really listens to all comments and suggestions and overall, the game is fun.

Get the goal horn pack for a tad more excitement!
