Demo

[Hash1]

I definitely want to play the demo before I buy the game. Does anyone know when the demo will be released?

well all of the other FMOs from what i heard what filled with bugs that never got adressed.

The biggest feature this year is the All-Time Leaders. We also re-did the Scouting Reports and Ratings, and implemented the 'Roster' Dialog (similar to Baseball Mogul) that lets you view and/or sort players by any stat or rating.

This means we didn't get around to adding things like a playbook. The biggest reason we weren't able to get to these features is because we were spending our time addressing all of the bugs and issues people reported in Football Mogul 2003.

I think you'll find the game is very stable now, and that the sim engine and AI are much better. I'm also working on a patch right now (to let users sort lists of College Players, plus a few other small fixes, like properly season stats for Hall-Of-Fame Inductees).

And I forgot to mention -- I'm in the middle of moving now so the demo has been delayed, but I will get it done as soon as possible.

Will you be putting something up on the homepage when the demo does come out? I notice there isnt as much advertising for Football Mogul as there has been for Baseball Mogul. But i have a semi-slow internet connection here and it can sometimes be a hassel to try to get to the discussion board to see if there has been a demo released yet.

The Football Mogul 2005 demo is at the following link:
