Hey Gang,
Long time Baseball Mogul lover, First time Football Mogul user. I've read some of the other threads and echo much of the sentiment that FBM has great potential, but is lacking BBM's detail (awards, etc).
But, here are the draft issues I am coming across. I just purchased the download version 3 days ago on the 28th.
* After a few years, the draft order gets screwed up. Once I hit 2011, that draft, and all thereafter, go in Alphabetical Order of the Teams until they get to my team. After that, they go in the proper order. IE, I have the Chicago Bears. No matter what pick I have, I will be the 6th pick of the first round (after ARI, ATL, BAL, BUF, and CAR). After winning the Super Bowl last year, I had the 32nd pick. But, it stopped at the 6th pick and had me draft there. It has done it for every draft after 2011.
* I think this was reported elsewhere, but on the draft board, it defaults to the upcoming year's draft while drafting. IE, while in 2011's draft, you will not see the progression or picking order. You will only see the blank screen on 2012.
* Imbalance of the draft. There is a HUGE imbalance of VERY GOOD TEs, FBs and GOOD WRs to everything else. You can always pick up a producive TE, FB or WR in the 5th round or later. But, most other positions (ESPECIALLY RB, DT, C) are exceptionally sparse.
Will these issues be addressed? Are there fixes to them? Is there a file I can get into where I can alter the proliferation of positions in the draft?
I sure would like to see FBM be a little more complete. It doesn't have to be BBM, but there sure is an unbalance between the $20 I spend for BBM and the $20 I spend for FBM.
Thanks
Michael
