Maybe Arlie will give a discount for those of us (FOFC'ers) who are making sure the game gets off the ground tonight?
j/k, but it's amazing how fast news travels.... Todd |

1st impressions
First impressions:
Damn, it's gonna take me a long time to get thru this game. I'm a slow player, taking a long time even for one season, there's a lot of detail here, and it certainly looks beautiful. Some nice attention to detail, like detailed city information including a little rustic picture. Controlling the Green Bay Ice Giants. Interface is nice. One thing I noticed is the scroll wheel didn't work in at least some of the listings i.e. college draft pool. Configuration options are numerous. But really, I won't be getting to what's REALLY important for some time, something the FOF games do and do well, and thats how does the game simulate football. I expect it will be some time before we know this. Bottom line, that will make or break the game for me. If the engine itself sux, all the nice interface and pretty graphics don't mean anything. However, I have nothing to indicate either way yet, after only playing 1/2 hour or so. |

I did not know you could send files over AIM.. interesting.
Too bad I ripped it out of my computer roots and all. And I know *what* file you are talking about, but was confused about the method of transfer. |

I love the way you can start in the offseason, before FA and the draft.

Crash - Trying to cut a third ILB to free up space to sign draft picks.
I really dislike how cumbersome the interface is. |

I would make sure you exit the game before starting a new career until we get a chance to look at this

The interface is overwhelmiing at first. Give it time. It'll be like the back of your hand, and is much easier to learn than most. |

Here's a link:

Stats after the first season look pretty good. Tackles by linebackers seem to be a little high though. Many players with 140+ tackles. The leader ended up with 211

When negotiating contracts it would be nice to have a window that confirms your offer. Instead the contract is just accepted, that could kill you if you have a typo in your offer.

You might want to check out the manual for how tackles are calculated in TPF.
