We have recorded the interview but I am going to be exchanging emails with Josh on questions that we were not able to get to during the time we had available for the discussion.

Thanks to everyone that submitted questions!

Will ties be accounted for correctly in seeding? Also, well tie breakers be used according to NFL rules?

Re: VSN speaking with Josh Looman on CFM, taking questions now

All I'm interested in is editing rookies and draft classes so that we aren't forced to play with EAs classes. Which are horrendous. If we can't edit draft classes, or if we can't edit those rookies post draft at least...I have no interest in this game, period.

I've already been told no custom classes, so what they need to do is take a page from the NCAA series and patch in the ability to let us edit everything about players at any time while in franchise mode.

When I say everything, I mean
Name
Height
Weight
Skin color
Equipment
Atrributes
College
Age

I want realism in my franchise. No comical names and no players with crazy attributes that make no sense. I want real rookies and draft classes that resemble real life.

TRAITOR! THIS IS TREASON! Quick, Millennium, off with his head. For the King!

Any how, I really hope that the tie breakers are correct and that the AI will utilize its own practice points. Even the former wasn't that big of an issue, but the latter really killed any long-term offline league. The user either had a stacked team and abused that to get even stronger via trades, or, the user also didn't practice and all backups were absolute garbage.

Re: VSN speaking with Josh Looman on CFM, taking questions now

Ask about the fake Twitter feed. I hope that they have done away with it. It's incredibly repetitive. And a few years ago I was told that it was the reason we couldn't edit players. Come on EA. A fake Twitter? That's not a groundbreaking idea.

Re: VSN speaking with Josh Looman on CFM, taking questions now

I hope he was asked about

Auto subs working properly
formation subs
CPU AI improvements (roster mgmnt, draft logic, player re-signing)
SCHEMES working properly
SCOUTING improvements! - IRL teams aren't absolutely clueless on players!
Assistant coaches (see HC09)
PLAYBOOK knowledge and team chemistry
Player roles (ie starter, back up, special teams, reserve)
Better contracts/ability to resign players
Improvements to Owners Mode - ridiculously cumbersome and time consuming to do 32 team control
Why more features from HC09 haven't been brought over
Improvements to menu's/screens - better load times, less back and forth

Anything you can imagine, he was probably asked, but as much as the gameplay guys like to be open, I am highly doubting Looman will answer much of what we want to hear. And if he does, "maybe next year" will be the most likely of responses.

Rex and crew all seem on the right page. Donny Moore and Josh Looman tough.... no.
