New for FHM9 - Page 12

Hey, didnt want to make a new topic since I vaguely remember it being discussed, but is this gonna be fixed in next update? Pretty big deal if teams keep releasing their 1st round picks every season. (most of those guys are 1st round, a few 2nd rounders)

Working on it.

Is there a demo, so I can try the game and decide if it is for me?

There's no demo. Steam allows for playing a game for up to 2 hours and can be refunded easily /no questions asked.

Thank you.
Not quite enough time to decide with my very basic knowledge of hockey

I'm just a fan of sports management games who got bored of Football Manager. I'll watch some youtube videos.

KevT90 · 12-18-2022, 04:08 PM

I agree 2 hours is limited for this type of game but you could give it a try anyway and if that's not enough time to make your mind then yes I agree the next best thing is to complement it by watching playthroughs on YouTube.

I thought this was addressed

I know i can manually add them back on the team, but it just pisses me off to do so every 1st July

That actually looks like something going wrong with the junior loans. If you check their history, were they both in the QMJHL/WHL through the season that just ended? Doesn't seem to be any note that they were returned to the NHL team at the end of 23-24 like they should have been.

Yeah, both of them were. Now that i checked other players who were also released all of them were signed/loaned and released afterwards without returning to team so that must be it

I understand that Steam Cloud Saving is not supported given the size of the save game file generated by FHM.

Is there currently a way (or planned in the future) to specify where the games are saved? I would like to keep them saved on the Cloud so I can play while mobile.

Thanks guys, Merry Christmas!

Just wanted to start by thank you you all for your time and effort to make my favorite game. This will be my ninth season supporting the project via Steam.

I normally don't normally make any request as I think most people cover everything quite well.

However there was 2 features I've always wanted to see.

1/ The first is, I would love to have the same screen customization like the way you have in OOTP Baseball. Being able to have player stats/ with rating on the same screen would save lots time when manually scouting players. I would also like to have a side side tab with the NHL/AHL/ECHL with major stats GP,GA,PTS,PIM side by side for quick references when injury's happen for call ups

2/ the second is a more condense Rating system. I'm not saying change the scouting screen or remove anything, more just with OVR OFF/DEF rating similar to the original East coast hockey simulator. Its good when looking at multiple players and need a scoring forward vs a 3/4th line grinder to just see what type players is before deep diving.

Thank you again for everything and really appreicate your time

You can change each square on Home Manager screen by clicking on the arrow in the right hand corner that will bring up a down menu. It would be cool to have the player's role visable at the roster screen.

For NCAA players that receive a redshirt, is it possible for them to be re-assigned to the USHL or a similar junior league that has their contract rights for the current season and returns to their college (or commits to a different college) the following year? A few players do this every year, such as Tyler Boucher leaving Boston and going to the OHL.

Do you think this filter will be something added to FHM9 or is that more likely an FHM10 update?

EDIT: Found it. Had been looking in the wrong place.

Might be doable if they have league rights assigned already, but I think we may want to wait on that one until we have the Junior A-level leagues playable to avoid some potential complications.

Plus the fact that if you play in the CHL leagues your NCAA eligibility is voided

boscoJJ · 02-05-2023, 06:42 PM

would changing age setting to Custom Farm leagues possible in a future update?

Risk2014 · 02-09-2023, 12:29 PM

Any idea when the New Patch is going to released. Jeff said Feb sometime. I have not been playing the game since Dec waiting on alot of things to be fixed. Can we get an update?

I've got to say I'm in the same boat. Almost two months without any significant changes pretty early after launch and during the heights of the NHL season is not ideal. I know it's a small team, but still. The game has lots of bugs.

Well this update is going to fix bugs and add content so that's likely why it's taking a bit longer. I'm guessing towards the end of the month.
