Football Head Coach 24 - FHC 4+

Been playing this game for weeks now, I really enjoy the concept of managing your own team. The game play is entertaining to watch and the collecting of players is extremely fun. A few recommendations. 1. Card details: should add some additional basic info about the player them self, for example their current NFL team. 2. Market place filtering: need to add a more filters to identify cards, for example a filter one time left or choice of multiple positions. 3. Cards percentage: I’m not sure the rate of reviving rank cards but it needs to be fine tuned. If 75 rank card has a 6 percent chance of being pull then a 70 rank card should not be 100, it should be 94 percent. 4. Add a few more daily missions or other type of objectives. At a certain point the game because stale as you get stuck in a gray area where you can’t collect more cards or buy cards cause of the prices. Your pretty much in a gray area just hanging around. 5. Market prices: market prices of most cards is unrealistic. Even if a have a high rank card to sell, most players can’t buy it cause they don’t have the money or don’t have another high rank to try and sell, so you’re stuck in a loop. Again the game is great, I love the concept but it needs some minor tweaks to keep the player involved

This game is amazing and I have enjoyed it so far, but there are some flaws. This game is amazing for many things, not being pay to win, having quite in depth offensive and defensive coaching schemes, and also a unique way of playing in your league or a quick game. But, this game has some flaws being, the player names are not original which makes for some really weird names which leaves me desiring original ones, the same song which gets a little bit obnoxious after a while (though I understand that may not be an option), and that there are some glitches where sometimes you or the opposing team may lose yards for seemingly no reason and playing a quick game and it just skips the gameplay but still gives you a win or a loss. All in all, even though I listed some negatives, those are very small and the positives outweigh the negatives.

I’ve been going back and forth between playing this game and NFL Rivals, but to be honest, this game has more lasting appeal and potential. The team building is smooth, and reminiscent of Ultimate Team on Madden (even complete with ridiculous auction prices) but without having to play the games. It’s relatively easy to earn currency and upgrade your team, and stats do play a role, but it’s overall about designing schemes to fit your team, which I love.

The reason I give it 4 stars is due in part to the timing of the game. 8 hours to regain 1 energy? And one league game every 24 hours? It’s almost a drag to wait that long, and there’s only so much I can do in between with only a 3 energy max limit (unless I’m doing quests, and earning energy, which mostly require energy to do) and no desire to spend $$$ on extra resources (which isn’t a huge deal in this game, thankfully - it’s not pay to win!)

In addition, the past couple days have been glitchy, however, as my team has suddenly missed out on a league game they were supposed to play, AND when the countdown timer for my quick game rewards got to 0:00, instead of giving me the rewards for 40 games won, it just reset to another SEVEN DAYS and wouldn’t let me claim them. Those bugs need to be patched if I’m going to continue to play the game.
