I'll admit I was most likely a little too critical of HC09, I did love the game....and still love the concept and what was in the game....

Really, all they'd have to do is put a new coat of paint on it, (add HOF stuff) today's rosters, and copy everything else over as is and I'd pay the $60 again for HC ::hint hint wink wink nudge nudge:: or shoot, you wouldn't even have to update rosters if they just made the draft classes from 09-12 a DLC for the 09 game. That'd work for me too!

p.s. I was excited for this patch also, but not so much now, because as much as I want it to be, it's not going to have the depth, or even a token's worth of the AI that HC had...really, how could you insult HC in that way really, oh, imagine another DLC for HC09 where they added an online league!!!!!!!!! can you imagine playing HC09 with 31 other people. How awesome would that be with the custom playbooks, trying to outbid each other for coaches, free agents, omg, that game would ROCK! :ski llz:

Looks like I'll be buying Madden. Again...

HC with custom playbooks and the ability to play online against 31 other real coaches? I would play that without hesitation....

I am hoping the depth of HC09 will make it into M14....That would be awesome....

At least with Tuesdays update we coaches will be able to start a coaches only league, if I understand the update notes correctly?

For Head Coach 09 I meant Fail in reference to its Commercial sales. Which were probably because of the issues I stated. I Should have expressed that better so i apologize. And Yes, I know User control would no longer make it Head Coach, but it would have been tits if it had it. As it stands, for what is was initially designed to be, a coaching game, I can see no better Football simulation.

The game itself is absolutely solid, throw in the multi like you say and top it off with additional user control along with its coach mode and you got damn near the perfect football sim. To this day I wish that HC was Madden.

With old maddens Nothing was better than playing my dad who coached because he lacked stick skills while I user controlled my player. It allowed us to play together the way we wanted, but it lacked the depth we craved that we knew Head Coach had.

I just believe EA chose the wrong mode to focus on for sales, but would have been a perfect vehicle for Franchise with both User and Coach mode. But then it would have stolen sales from Madden. But they are both EA so who knows what happened there...Even if all i could do was move the guy in the pocket or on the field and let the ratings and awareness do the rest I think I would have been completely satisfied.

I'm going to check right now if I can pull up a Head Coach Roster file with a Roster Editor. What would that mean to you guys. Here goes nothing...

Edit: Yeah, I just global edited ratings for Head Coach. Further testing will lead to how far I can really take this.

I saw your post in the HC forum, what do you mean by that? How would someone be able to use a file you created and would that cause any problems whatsoever? hacking/unstability? Also, if it comes right down to it, I'd rather have a draft class created than an updated roster if that were possible.

finally, i don't know if hc failed because of sales. all i know is that it was very quickly removed from the table with the team itself being surprised. so i think there was something else at work there rather than just a business decision. i guess we'll just have to wait til it becomes declassified and the movie comes out

just dropped on xbox in Australia

you can edit gear and appearance but not names or weight/height

you can change qb stance as well

you can swap sides but not positions (like rolb to lolb. but not rolb to RE)
