Great but we need a football game

You made basketball, American football, boxing, hockey, everything, but now it’s time to make a football game, or soccer as Americans call it.

100+ hours, heres my thoughts

*copied from Reddit comment*
I play a lot as coach lock. Here are my thoughts.
- I think having three set lineups would be perfect. One as the current “default” setting, one you can set as a development/load management lineup, and then one you can set as an experimental lineup. This is essentially how i use the “default” lineup now, but fidgeting with the minutes between matchups when i know who i want to play is a big time sync that could be fixed.
- i agree with fouling buttons in coach lock. At times i want to try a strategy other than the typical, and it’s not possible currently. Perhaps in the final 2 minutes of a game a button pops in the top right corner or something.
-expanding the playbook/a playbook editor where you can make you own plays would really expand the depth of the game. I feel like the current system can funnel repetitive gameplay and lineup creation. Also as op mentioned, any iso play is kinda broken as to how we would think of it in reality.
-kinda adds to last point, but out of bounds plays. I think just like special teams in football, they are an important part to a teams strategy, and not having them puts a damper on late game play

Now onto some QOL improvements lol.
- I dont think there is a way to see the draft order from the current year. To check past years you go top left in the year indicator, to check the next years you go though the scout. But i dont think you can check the current years.
-compare multiple players at once. When im making roster cuts or trade decisions it would be nice to have the 3-4 players im considering on one screen.

Thats all lol. Really love the game and campus mode has been a sick addition.
