Few Minor Suggestions

Great game, FHM team! I'm amazed by the amount of detail already in the game, it was well worth the wait and more.

With that being said I have a few minor ideas for future patches or forthcoming installments:

1. OOTP's "Act As..." option in Commissioner Mode. I realize I've mentioned it in a few posts so far --- this will be the last time. This seems like a minor feature but it makes a lot of difference to users who want total control over an in-game universe. This may also help online commissioners who want to override a troublesome situation.

2. International Competitions. It's a feature I've already requested for OOTP but I understand how hard it must be to code a nationality-based temporary player loaning system. It would be great for future editions, though.

3. Ability to edit a coach's role in Commissioner Mode. Let's say I want to hire legendary goalie coach Jim Corsi as a Head Coach. At this point in FHM 2, I can only hire him as an assistant and can not change his role in the Edit Coach menu. In OOTP and Eastside the user can hire coaches to fill any position. This flexibility would make a ton of difference and allow different coaches to move up the rungs of the coaching ranks as they gain experience.

4. Ability to force any retired player to become a coach. You see a lot of unheralded role players like Dan Bylsma become successful NHL coaches (same for other sports --- Steve Kerr, Derek Fisher, Kevin Cash and Joe Girardi come to mind). This would help with realism as well as allowing commissioners to increase immersion within their own games.

I'll be sure to follow up with this post if I come up with any more ideas. Rest assured that the exclusion of these features don't affect my enjoyment of the game in any way, I'd just think it would make a staggeringly detailed game even better. Keep up the great work!
