Hey guys.. question.

How easy is it to deal with having player affinities on now? 

I noticed that someone had posted a possible draftees info and it had some numbers in green, which meant that he would have an affinity with one of the guy's current players on the team.  I'm just wondering if all the player affinity interface stuff has been streamlined like that?  Not only was the zodiac thing kinda ridiculous, you had to check each player's match-up with his teammates on a user-created chart to see if they'd hate others on your team.  It was a goddamn pain in the ass so I usually turned it off.  However, if he's give simple color coding indicators in all situations, it may be worth using.

Some additional big announcement due tonight.....wonder what it will be....seems speculation is one of the following:

-  FOF gets on Steam
-  New version of TCY
-  He found a publisher
-  Enhancing the graphics
-etc.

Probably will not turn out that big after all:)

Dropping eLicense like a psycho girlfriend?  That would be great news. 

I almost wished Matrix picked them up but then the game would cost twice as much.  :P

I've briefly held off buying just because I don't have the play time for it right now but it's been itching at me.   I hope it's good news.

A new TCY is the most likely of that selection...though perhaps some kind of agreement with a sports game company wouldn't be a crazy.

What's a TCY?  Sounds familiar but my brain isn't working right now... just had a buffet so it has shut down and gone into sleep mode.

LOL. TCY is The College Years.  :D

Thanks.

But.. so soon after FOF is released? 

Oh.  I see.  Maybe just an announcement that he's working on it.   

Meh.  I'd rather see more work go into the next version of FOF.  Amiwrong?

Hoping related to fof, otherwise seems like a quick departure to something else after release.

Looks like a design contest to improve the UI/Graphics...I guess ok, but was hoping for bigger news:)

It's cool that he's offering money to the graphical modders for improving the look of the game in a patch. 

It also shows that the game is selling well enough to improve it further, too.

It's nice and will be an added touch....but......to me this game has never been about the graphics and even though it got uglier with the latest version, still not something I overly worry about.  I much prefer they spend their time tweaking that game, such as simplifying game planning.  I know you can use the recommend options, but I do want to have some input.  Such as, just give me some high level options such as how much focus to put for pass and run..something very easy.

Looks like another american football game in the works, but looks like it is a long ways off though.....
