Hey Gang, We are one of the largest if not "thee" largest online league in the world currently. With the help of OOTP and our man Bjorn! they have decided share they're link to our forum on facebook! I believe we are setting the standard for online play and we should all be very proud of ourselves. I'd like to thank every single person here wether your brand new or have been here since launch. Congrats everyone!! Anyways, with all that aside, I'd like to propose to use this thread as a "wishlist" or something / anything you want to see in the online world. Want new features ? How about a new setting ? We are a big family here folks, I'm encouraging everyone to be vocal and get whatever they think would be a great idea or feature on this thread so we can show Malte and the OOTP developers what suggestions we can give them while we play on the fly =) Rob OOTP FHM2 link www.ootpdevelopments.com/board/fhm-2-suggestions/260730-inhl-gm-suggestion-input-cont-updated.html#post3958804

I'm copying and pasting this comment from another thread to here. I believe it's something we can show the developers or they can view shall they choose to visit our site, makes for easier reading & access to awesome ideas or suggestions!

In terms of my solo-player experience of player progression, I have to agree with you so far in that it does seem very slow for me, whilst being a lot quicker for the AI. For example, in a recent save where I traded for Nick Bjugstad he's resolutely stayed at 3.5* ability, but in every other game when the AI owns him he marches nicely on to either a 4.5* or 5* rating.
It's my understanding that it's only the generational talents who advance more than a point a month, so the most you can expect with a normal player is 1 ability point increase per development phase. To my mind that really precludes taking a chance at the draft on players that are rated quite low in terms of starting ability... there are plenty of 1.5* / 4.5* players generated by the game later on, but chances are they are never going to reach that peak potential because of the slow pace of progression. If a player has crap physicals to start with, you'd literally need him to increase 1 point in physicals every month for 3-4 years before he becomes any good.
IMHO, player progression in FHM1, where you would regularly see 2-3 point increases per month across different attributes provided the player was settled, playing at the right level and getting decent ice-time, is the one aspect of that game which was superior to FHM2.

I am almost certain the developers are onto this already, but the following features would be great:
- In-game league file loading - League reports function - Menu for comparing player bios, attributes and stats (i.e. if I wanted to compare two players attributes, I could see them both on one screen)

They need to make it easier to generate information in such a way that easy to use, clickable web pages are available for leagues. It makes it so much easier to participate without the game.

- League Reports are definitely something that will enhance the experience in the future. - Organizational depth chart, outlining top prospects down to fringe guys at each position. This would allow teams to have streamlined access to their organizational depth, a snapshot so to speak.
Probably have more things, but can't think of them right now.

- Not playing games for an extended period of time should make a player lose his "match fitness". Basically what happens IRL to all players during offseason and one of the things the preseason is meant for - getting players back into match tempo again. What we saw in the iNHL preseason was a lot of star players being rested, because there was little upside but big downside (risk of injuries) to playing the best team.

Training camp to work on things and get ready for the season.
Ability to have more players in the roster to try kids in preseason games

A training camp with cuts would make the preseason just as exciting as every other part. The roster size should be expanded to fit all 50 contracts during preseason, then shrunk back to 23 when waivers kick in.

Off the top of my head - Depth chart...that´s really the one single feature that EHM has, which i´m missing.
All other wishes i have are for the historical mode (my main interest beside online play) and tricky and protracted/lengthy/lingering (sorry, can´t find the correct english word here, lol) to implement, like accurate farm and feeder systems back to the start of the 20's, 30's.

We really need to be able to create tactics templates in an online league.

I would love to have the possibility to replay games, i.e. view the play-by-play action for a game after it has been played. I believe that would contribute substantially to online league immersion.

I'd love to in some way see the game adjust to the blowouts that occur during the season. Currently we have some games that are 7-zip with only a few penalties called in the entire game. Wheres the emotion!! ??
In cases such as this, a lot of the times, you'll see players called for more quintessential roughing's and in its certainly common to see a pair of players ejected with 10 min misconducts & game misconducts.
Yes we have fights that occur which could also be implemented at a higher percentage but even if they're isn't a fight they're certainly seems to be "emotion" in the games that teams get blown out in.
Example:
Looking thru the boxscore's you get a sense of a story-line in which the game played out in R/L. For example if you take a 7 - 0 game you can visualize the chippyness of a game as players are given misconducts or quintessential roughing's leading to a fight or two throughout the game, or simply a player like Marchand or any player rather getting say... a 4min double minor for kneeing, and watching players go after him with 2min here and perhaps a misconduct there throughout a game.
I'd also like to see more players being taken off for scrums after a whistle .. more 4 on 4 opportunities.. which is severly lacking right now

When an injury occurs, the game should have an option to 'Auto-Fill' so the commish can continue to sim without completely resetting all changes the human manager has made to the team. Alternatively, the ability to save lines to a template so that you can easily reset your lines after an AI Auto Manage would be a nice workaround, although not as good as the AI not resetting forward and goalie line changes when a defensemen has an injury.

This is purely cosmetic, does not apply only to online leagues and has probably been noticed by someone else already, but I'll post it here anyway. For all players who's position is not set to RW, the i in "Wing" is capitalized. Please see below.

There are also many teams who do not own the rights to certain players that they have drafted, like for whatever reason Minnesota does not own the rights to Joel Eriksson Ek.

While we're doing database issues... If I'm not mistaken (I can't see the picks in game, but the last solo game I started was that way), the database has the Ottawa Senators' 4th round pick belonging to me. However, per general fanager, it is their 3rd rounder I should own. What should we do about that?
