The Gaffer: Football Manager

I loved their college football game so I was excited to give this game a try because I love football. The transfer system is nice idea but needs a work over. As of now you get one call to another team a day (while the window is open). You can sell or buy. (Only choosing to do one). All you see is a non specific area of the pitch for the player. (Fwd, mid, Def, GK) you can’t see a specific position. And when you go to choose the position they give you a random player from that team to choose to sell or buy. If you don’t want that player that’s it. You lose your call for that day and it’s a wasted day. There is not even an option to back out to the previous screen if you don’t want that player to buy or don’t want to sell that player. The AI does not call you for your players either. And they only want your top players at a much discounted price according to their price on the market. So if you sell you can only sell your top players at a discounted price and if you buy you buy subpar players over their market valued price. It would be nice if you can at least back out to the previous screen if you don’t want that player instead of losing the call for the day, the AI to make you offers and decent offers at that (at minimum their market value) for players they are interested in buying and if it wouldn’t be a random player from that team during the buying stage instead you can make an offer for any player on their team while the window is opened. Also once a match has started you watch it happen but can’t make any substitutes during the game . Especially with fatigue or if a player isn’t doing well it’d be nice to sub them off during matches. I have played 2 seasons and had a good team. Before each match they analysts in game say I am to win however during the first seasons I won only 5 games and second season with a much improved team and better than most in the division I won only 3 games. And I don’t just lose but I lost 5-1 or more almost everytime. This definitely seems strange to me. All in all I know it’s a game in development and I do think it has much potential. But if the devs can take a look at some of the things I mentioned and make some tweaks it would make the game much more manageable to play. Because with things as is especially the transfer system it makes the game unplayable for me.

Under construction but very good game so far. I can’t wait to see all the things they’ll add similar to the college football simulator. Would love to see these things added; - Subbing players @ halftime - Being able to select which players are available for sale. - different countries as an option to start - more frequent academy results CHEERS!
