What I Would Like To See Added

Post by GD|eNSo »

I really, really enjoy this game but I think the following features need to be added.

Coach -> GM Communication:

Need better communication between the two. Coach's should give weekly or bi-weekly reports on players. Who the coach(s) think need to be promoted or demoted. Which player need to be sent down, or shipped out. Which player require extra practice or improvment in a certain area.

More Player Involvement:

Player should be able to voice their opions more often. What they like or dont like. Actually this can be done through interviews and such on the radio; newspaper.

Scout Involvement:

I dont like the scouting in this game. Scouts really give you generic responses and dont help you at all. It would be nice when they scout players, give a ceiling on their potentail. Give more cons, then all pro feeback.

During the draft, the scouts that were involved in scouting, should reccomend players when your pick comes up. This way we can decide between players, or see if a player is good enough to have a unanimous vote.

Ill add more later.....

I'd like to be able to manage an AHL team. 8)
Tbh, I'm not really bothered about being able to watch the games in 2d. I prefer the way it is at the moment with the picture of the rink which shows where the play is and the commentary below.
IMO a 2d view is just a gimmick. Apparently it won't be in the next EHM because it would take Riz a year to develop such a feature :shock:

imo a 2d match engine would bring a whole different aspect to the game and if they did it right it would be fantastic!

It would make seeing effect of your tactic changes a bit easier, otherwise it doesn't make much difference apart from more confortable and enjoyable play time...

True, a 2d view would make it easier to spot weaknesses, tweak tactics, etc.

I'm not totally against the idea it's just that I'd put it at the bottom of the priorities list. I'm happy with how the matches are represented at the moment and there's many other things I'd like to see in the game.
