ah man... i may get it on PC soon

Did you end up getting it?  I am pretty happy with the game overall.  Being a one-man development team he is very responsive to feedback.

you got it on the PC ?

No, I got it on the ps5 again.  While it would be cumbersome you could theoretically run a cross-platform league but the commish would have to enter those with differing platforms play calling info manually.     

I like the fact that both leagues are around not sure the market can support both.  I like the USFL a little better but think the "new" XFL seems to have a better chance long term.  Mainly because of who is involved and the press that gets it. 

I think so fat they have done a fantastic job with the Last of US.  Some of the changes I have not enjoyed as much as others but overall it's a great show. Great game, a great show so far.  They last of us 2 is one of the best games I have ever played for those that have not indulged yet.

Yes and know it is limited in many ways but improves year over year. Its graphics are getting better but where it shines is the franchise mode and its customization level.  You can build unis, location, scout, draft, and use NFL/NCCA/CFL rule sets.  You can use a traditional NFL-style league setup or use a European soccer league-style tear system, starting at the lowest and moving up as you improve. It also has a very robust playcalling algorithm that you as the coach can set up to customize how you want your team to play.  This game is more of a sim game than a Madden.  You can play the games but it can become less enjoyable as you discover how to exploit the AI.  This is less of an issue in sim.

You got to love the coach.

I agree with everything you said and hate everything about it.  I know the reasoning for the changes and the financial benefit of it all.  With the new rules regarding student-athletes and their ability to earn while they play financials have become even more important in the college football landscape. I don't blame them for doing what they can to stay relevant but I think we are losing much more than we are gaining when it comes to college football.

Still a hospital administrator in Kansas in the middle of a new hospital build.  Kids are grown and in college.  My wife and I are struggling to find each other in a post-child-centered world but we have a hard time losing at anything so we will find our way. My favorite football team has chosen the worst name in history to replace its previous. The Royals are back to sucking, the Celtics disappointed me and the penguins are meh.  I am mostly disconnected from the digital world except for my work accounts.  I check in to old haunts from time to time but there are no civilized discussions to be had in this world (digital) anymore everyone has chosen their jersey and we switch hitters are left to figure it out on our own. For the most part, doing well just trying to keep my head above water like everyone else. 

This year's upcoming edition has massive improvements to the game.  It comes out in August give it a look. 

If they put it on the steam sale i will get it.

Sorry for the lack of response my CPU time is limited nowadays.  PC and console can be in a league, kind of.  The settings for sim can be manually put in by the league runner so technically it could work.  Labor intensive for the league runner but doable. I have been playing for a bit now and its got good bones and has very engaged developers so I think the future is bright.

ps5 you should check out their discord there are a lot of changes coming to the 22 version that look great.  I am still playing the game and enjoying it.



Which version you got?
