Photos Or Facegens

[QUOTE=AESP_pres;5204252]I. I don’t use photos directly in-game because, for me, it doesn’t make much sense to have a static image that doesn’t age or change uniforms as a player moves through teams."

First of all I would like to make it clear that I do not play the game so please assess any subsequent comments in that context. I find this site very appealing because it appears to bring together together many researchers.

That said is it not the case that mainly the game use focuses on playing a season within that specific year, I appreciate that it also can be used to compare the performance of teams from different eras. From that single season perspective would it not make sense to develop different yearly facepacks that would be interchangeable within the game depending on year choice. Assuming this is possible would that not address the issue of using just one image per player that would have limited relevance? The facepack database that I maintain has attempted to collate an image for every player for every year and team they play, in color wherever possible.

If this is not currently possible, surely this is a development that would enhance the reality of the game?
