Title: Front Office Football 8.2 Update Released
Post by: Grim.Reaper on October 22, 2018, 07:42:28 PM
Kind of surprised to see this since he is working on FOF9 with OOTP, but looks like he took time to release an free update you can get on Steam.  A little odd that this is done in the middle of the other work, but maybe that game will be taken much longer to release.  A number of improvements, including updated rosters.  One of my favorite updates is streamlining playbook generation...this is what I hoped for a long time to keep it much simpler.  Sample below.

Noice!

If I end up running this again, I need to go fix Frosty's old (but excellent) team logos again.  To fit the team moves this season (Chargers this time iirc)

I really want The College Years. The addition of academics really helped the game.

I took a poor team, from a poor conference, with bad academics, and turned them into a powerhouse. How? I boosted their academics all the way up, and used this to start recruiting the small number of true student-athletes that I wouldn't have a chance at before.

3 and 4 star athletes, and a slowly improving football team, with the number 2 academic team in the country. Worked well for me.

Shame I can't get it to work in windows 10.

That old Bowl Bound reportedly crashes on a regular basis.

I have purchased three games from Wolverine Studios, and all three were buggy pieces of shit. Not gonna be a fourth.
