I'm not obsessing, but I'll jump in on a gang war if you need the bodies.

[phattymatty]

so what is the best weapon to have?  is it the AK-47?

and whats the best protection, the armored car?

You are currently doing the Massage therapy Course, you have 17 days remaining.

someone got a tank yesterday from the armory. i think the golden gun is the best ehhh?

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Maybe some of our brothers in Memphis can hook us up, yo.

So, here's my football concept:

Stats: Power, Speed, Defense, Special Teams, Coaching

Combat: A game played out over a fixed number of plays.  Power > Speed more running plays, Speed > Power more passing plays.  Includes Kickoffs, punts and field goals.  Coaching affects penalties, perhaps also a factor on other plays.

I'm still brainstorming about the other factors of the game:
Leveling, Training - not sure how this is going to work yet.

Items: "Free Agents"

Housing: Probably something that affects training.

Cities: No clue.

Any comments / ideas?

I just noticed an AK and an armored car in the armory...anyone mind if I pick it up? Otherwise...I've got about 600k...if someone can buy me something really nice.

thats pretty cool. would one person control a team, or would this actual team be separate players of the game? if i were you i would go into madden and look at the attributes, pick out maybe a quarter or half of those...base your training and skills of players off of this. give players option to train these specific attributes.

for example: training - weight room - helps build strength and power. power can be a general attribute, where if your a running back it helps you break tackles. fb's block better. if your a o-lineman it helps you block better. if your a d-lineman it helps you shed blocks. etc...

Track - helps build speed

Cardio - stamina - able to stay on the field longer

Receivers drill - helps WR, TE catch better, helps DB's LB's defend better against pass

Running back drill - helps RB's and FBs gain better agility, balance - helps LB's and DL tackling ability

As far as gameplay - if you had a high ranked player on D or two, you can have the choice to use a impact play. maybe 2 per half...in critical situations. much like NCAA

Football is a game of strategy so def make the play calling simple. call zone, man, blitz plays. also maybe have a option to pick if the person is passing, running

i like this idea...it could be alot of fun, but actually getting someone to develop it and make it work is beyond me

Yeah the football idea could be really cool. I think the limitations in the code might become frustrating though.

I'm going with a one person controls a team approach, and the game plays itself out like a battle on FC.  If you want to micro-manage the game, go play Bloodbowl  (or Madden)

HA! Well it can be done. Ever seen this hockey sim?

I always wished there was something like this for football...

I think the Fatal Combat approach would be cool though. Certainly not as much work.

I already did my part - got my top Memphis weapons and donated my AK and armored car to the gang.
