The UI is really bad and it seems more like a game that's in early alpha than a final game. It's like there is no thought that went in to it. The sadest part is that Out of the Park Baseball is so good and this is from the same company. No clue what they are thinking releasing this as it is.. Not right now. Not in it's current form. Way too sloppy, way too many errors. And under polished. If you want to support sports management sims, by all means. But OOTP needs to stop pricing this as a finished product and take a deep look at themselves, and decide whether they want this to be a money grab, or actually grow a fan base. I own FHM 1 through 4.. Since the last version of this title that I played (v2 iirc) its turned the corner from "too rough" to "a few rough edges that don't detract too much from a great game". The rough edges are stuff like your team's name not being highlighted in lists or on the sim screen, mac gestures not working, and the menu's taking some getting used to which all in all reminds me of mid-early OOTP releases. My other minor quibble is speed but I'm playing on a very underpowered machine (old MBA) so that's no biggy, and its perfectly stable, no crashes. Really this just makes it a perfect game for playing along with while watching TV etc.Even as a casual hockey fan the game is extremely engaging and immersive. The tactical roles and strategy system in general really clicks for me. Again there are some minor UI issues here when trying to build from scratch, but having your assistant recommend things works great and again is pretty similar to how I manage thing in OOTP. Highly recommend!. "Very disappointing. I had high hopes, but it seems like they're cashing in on name and reputation, with a horribly unfinished product. Even in the interface is lacking some of the basic functionality that should be directly transferable from OOTP."That was my review of FHM2. While some of the most egregious issues have been addressed, FHM4 is a disappointment nonetheless. The interface is still vastly inferior to OOTP baseball, highly cumbersome in some areas, and lacking basic functionality that should be obvious for a franchise management sports sim. I won't "throw this one away" like I did FHM2, but it will be buried on the shelf for a while to see if any improvements are made. FHM4 feels like a $10 "early access" title, not a $40 final product.. This game is good and on the verge of being great. What I don't understand is why they can't implement a match engine similar to the one used in Eastside Hockey Manager 2007, a match engine where you could actually watch the game play out on ice. If they could develop a better, 3D match engine, the game would be significantly better and more fun to play. Great job though in a good improvement over last year's game, which was not good at all. Keep at it, gentlemen, you're on the right track!. i do a lot of gaming on this pc and i can count the number of crashs ive gotten on other games in the last 8 months on one hand, whereas every single thing i change in my custom game seems to result in a crash to desktop....which i could live with as i save a lot while drafting\/customing lines\/trading etc but then theres the times youre playing a game (not quick simming but taking the time to play out a game manually) and taking your time simming it changing lines, tinkering around based on how a period is playing out etc only to have the slightest line change etc in period 3 of a tight game crash you to desktop with no save....i mean its 33 bucks for me and thats on sale =\/ if it was 5, 10 or 15 bucks i could live with it but i expect a little stability from something thats 44 bucks regular priced in my countryIf youre patient and dont mind crashes its pretty f'ing funedit - after putting some more hours into this game i can honestly say its really flawed in its current state and not worth it.....players who get serious injuries during a game will continue to play the whole game before the injury takes effect......you can just click play\/stop repeatedly and have the game clock just disapear.......lots of things that dont make sense. 4th Version - my 3rd purchase (love hockey manager games), still not well done. Strange things happen - computer not re-signing extremely talented players (nor trading them). Fired after winning season (note: at no point did the system say you were fired, you just were not managing a team anymore). After third season, the potential for draft picks dropped by about 1-2 stars (ie: .5 star potential in the second round, 1.5 at the end of round 1). Overall - not well made, not well tested, not well documented, just not a good game.. "Do you recommend this game?" NO, not at this price and not in it's current state.Do I like the game and see the potential? YES, this sim has a high ceiling and I hope and pray I can change this review to a thumbs up sooner than later.Seriously... when you are charging $35+ for a game, at least have some fundamental standard that you prioritize. I don't want to play a simulation game where basic things are broken like sorting on certain columns, or a back page function that doesn't remember your last configuration\/filter.If simulation games 20-30 years older can do exactly what you're trying to do and have done it extremely well in the past, that should be the "standard" you try to at least reach before you present anything furthermore. Zero excuses in my opinion.Aside from the headscratching "Dev, why can't you not sleep just for a night and fix the most obvious unsightly detractions", this simulation is very rewarding and I am actually enjoying the brunt of the mechanics.Simple obvious polish is all that is needed, for instance when both teams are the same trim color, the text labels will use the same color for both teams, which is annoying and confusing when you are trying to immerse yourself in the details, it's like trying to watch two teams wearing the same uniforms. Also a game puck indicator that seems to follow a hidden random agenda to what the play by play is actually saying, or penalty countdowns which start fine, but executes in a completely 'F- failed function coding class' buggy mess.Plusses: - Real players\/teams. The NHL\/PA licensing is great and this is the type of sim I will love to tinker around with in various historical fantasy tangents- Engine that is more believable than smoke & mirrors at this point. Text play-by-play retty much reminiscent of Championship Manager 01\/02 (Football Manager before it went 2D) and that era of sports sim engine.Minuses:- Unpolished, untested, sloppy coded front-end, broken functionality that is there but not working properly under various contexts- Setting a player trade with a team and finally clicking "Offer trade" leading to home screen with no indicators\/prompts\/results and then going back to the trade window manually has the same trade ready to go\/repeat into loop-of-nothing. Seriously, how the heck do I trade a player?- Resolution settings seemingly not working at all (fixed default regardless of what I set including after a restart)- Momentum meter doesn't seem very realistic or in tune with the action being portrayed- Puck indicator that seems to have a mind of its own compared to the action being portrayed- Game engine playback settings that don't stick and have to be reset every game- No player comparison- No line presets- No steam cloud save(my opinion after open-minded 6 hours of casual play)
