If he quits now, he gets exactly what he deserves.

For the record, it's not me posting as HornsManiac over there.

Blackadar · 02-27-2006, 10:07 PM

Geezus...I saw this thread linked at another site, so I came back to visit. I can't believe I read the whole thread. Two things stand out...

One was a quote by someone at MF:
"With that said, career play in a game is a general term and as with many other such terms can be extrapolated based on each person's understanding."

Wow. What kind of bullshit response is that?

I think Bonegavel nailed this in the 3rd page of this thread. "Without intending to sounding too negative, this game is going to suck the most enormous donkey testicles that have ever been produced by ID/Evolution."

So, in conclusion...

This thread > MF

I still want to know who BaboonHeart is? The Walmart trip to find Maximum football is hilarious along with his other posts.

Watching that newest video again, it's hilarious how the tight ends just get blown up and tossed on their back at the beginning of every play.

aran · 02-27-2006, 10:33 PM

Yeah. It appears someone slathered their shoes' bottoms in lard. I also love how playres randomly fall through each other and in random directions when their is some attempt to tackle the ballcarrier.

cthomer5000 · 02-27-2006, 10:37 PM

also, PLEASE watch the RB on the 3rd down play. I love his "hover right" move to start the play.

LOL. He hovers, sliding to the right, then runs into the line and gets punched down by his own guard who has gotten turned around.

Buccaneer · 02-27-2006, 10:38 PM

You know, I really wonder what they are going after here. They aren't going to get any Madden-type customers and they have showed nothing that would interest text-simmer. What's left? The only thing I can think of is that this will be a budget title ($19.95) for those that can't afford the $50 for Madden.

You can prolly get one of the earlier year Madden games for around 20 bucks or so as well.

I can see people buying it for $19.99 as a budget title if the box art is cool. But after they load it up??? Talk about some pissed off Wal-Martians.

Easy Mac · 02-27-2006, 11:32 PM

Sell it for $9.99 like Football Manager on Amazon.

BTW, does anyone have any idea WTF Football Manager is that is listed on Amazon? I assume its Football Mogul, but for $10 I might just buy it to find out.

I'm an indie game developer, I've been following MF since it was first posted about on football-gaming.com 5 years ago, and I have to say that this will be a fucking trainwreck.

Virtually everything you can do wrong in releasing a game they've done it.

Multiple missed release dates spanning YEARS, the developer insulting other products, the developer getting pissy with customers, the developer's WIFE coming on the forums expecting the customers to feel sorry for a man creating a game to release to make money off of. I'm sorry but when you decide to charge for your game you're not longer in hobbyist territory, run with the big dogs or get the fuck out of the way. The developer has posted PUBLICLY that he almost quit on the project 2-3 times in the past month, you don't tell your customers that you idiot.

Actively working on the game code all the way up til release date. Uh, NO.

Showing videos and screenshots without screening them first for errors, bugs, or other things that may cast a negative reflection on the game. Completely bushleague.

Multiple other comments DW had no business making public.

Oh, and for those of you who don't know what happened with his CFL game. The way it was explained to me was that CFL '99 was released barely playable, DW got mad at all the negative criticism, promised a patch to fix all of the issues, then out of nowhere removed the game from the online store and labeled it as "SOLD OUT". Next thing you know he's working on a new game. Based on his posts I would doubt his maturity level has improved to the point to expect anything else this time around. Even if Matrix put into their publishing contract with him that he has to support the game for a certain amount of time, he can still release crap patches and find a way to wiggle out of it.

I've really tried to be supportive of DW through all the delays and missed release dates because I believe that Indie game dev's should support other indie's. As soon as he ripped the text sim guys that went out of the window. Pompous ass.

I'm just watching and shaking my head at all of this. I'm really hoping I'm wrong, I'll gladly eat crow to see another football game hit the market that is enjoyable to play. I think that's a pipe dream at this point, atleast for MF.

Wow. I LIKE this guy!

i think he just doesn't want to embarass "the artest" by having his cartoon have more realistic graphics/presentation than the game.

I see the likes of Dean Houston, Hornsmaniac and Wig over at the Maxim Football Forum, is the world coming to an end or something?

Dude, why didn't you tell us that you were really from Wisconsin? It's not THAT embarassing. And to tell you the truth, I never fell for the whole Dutch Boy act. Really...football fans in The Netherlands? WhatEVAR!

If I get one more moron who talks about maybe it was "rounding" and "this is not a text sim" I'm going to tell them to shove it up their !$$.

Truly, how many people does it take to test this game..... The world will never know because no one has.
