I agree with your point about children having supervision on an iPad, but let's not go over this whole issue, it's already finished. As for your point about Adrian Peterson, I don't know what he has done exactly, since I dont live in a country where American football is spoken about, if only when comparing a local athletes athleticism to those that are in the NFL. In any case I admire his ability on the field, I hardly know anything about the personal lives of any American football player and they are certainly not my role models.
Hey MMarzola, any chance we some kind of single player mode in the future? The cups are fun while they last, because they are somewhat of a challenge while just starting your team and they provide the best way to get coins. But playing them again is not worth the reduced coins and contracts. Not to mention its not fun winning something you have already won, again. I think an easy(ish) game mode to implement would be a sudden death survivor mode. It could used the same 20 seconds game rules as sudden death, while pitting you against harder and harder teams as you win. It adds a challenge to see who can string together the most wins before a defeat. Of course you need to make sure that at some point there are teams that are really difficult to beat. The best AI team I see in the game is the Aliens Area 51 team, but even they are pretty easy to beat... I'm not sure if you have the ability coded to amp up AI difficulty, but that would help, for later on in the survivor mode. It may also be a good idea to have perk cool down carry over from one game to the next, so if you use a fumble punch on the last play of a game, then the counter carries it into the next game until its ready. That would make it slightly harder. Plus since sudden death does not count towards a contract, the survivor mode could count as 1 contract use, regardless of how far you go, thus slightly forcing the card collector players to use a contract... A single season mode with stats etc... would be great, but that would probably be tedious and difficult to build. Survivor mode should not be too bad. Just a thought...
I love the survivor mode game idea. Would be super fun! And we could add a leaderboard for longest streak! I really like this! We need a season mode. It's an essential part of a great football videogame. I am embarrassed about how long it has taken us to get it in the game. We are in the middle of engine work for Football Heroes, so that is why updates are slow right now. We should have some news on a new build next week. Hope that everybody is doing well.
A new version of Football Heroes: Pro Edition v1.3 has been submitted for the App Store. We are hoping to have this new version available by next Wednesday. Here are the release notes: > DECK GENERATION SPEED - Major speed improvements made to Deck Generation when opening decks of cards > GAME CENTER LEADERBOARDS - Compete with your friends and the world on Game Center Leaderboards to determine who has the greatest football team in the universe. > VIDEO ADS (Optional/Opt-In) - Now you have the option to Watch Video Ads to Earn FREE COINS or CONTRACT GAMES for your Star Players > Various balancing changes and bug fixes.
Unfortunately no, that will be in the major update that gets released in coordination with this year's NFL Season Kickoff.
Just wondering if you guys are planning on adding speacial cards? Like SuperBowl Champs, SuperBowl MVP, League MVP, Rookie of The Year, etc.? Does your agreement with NFLPA allow you to do this?
This is a really good idea. I honestly do not know, I will ask this week and let you know what they say. Off the top of my head the "Super Bowl" anything is probably off the table because the League owns that term
v1.3 is NOW LIVE!! Football Heroes: Pro Edition v1.3 is now out for iPhone and iPad. Please update and let me know what you think of the new version. As always, please dont be shy with ideas or criticisms, it helps make the game better. Thank You
The video ad for coins function is too stingy. I watched one to see how it works (works well), but I will never watch one again for 50 coins. It would need to be a minimim of 150 coins to entice me. Oh and watching a video after a sudden death game is 25 coins, that x2 as stingy. I think in general, this game is stingy for coins. It works well when first starting out and ramping up your team and playing the cups. But trying to maintain a solid gold team is not possible with contracts. I think the better card prices are too steep. Also want to point out that you didnt fixed the 45 coins prize for beating a sudden death team. It used to be 75 and in the last update it went to 45. I pointed ou to you then and you mentioned you would fix it.
Heck even with the coin doubler the game is stingy lol. Still love it but wish it was a bit more generous.
Hey thanks for the feedback. Now you can watch a Video Ad when a player's contract expires to extend his Contract. This means, if you do not want to spend money and are willing to watch video ads you can keep extending your players contacts until you get a Contract extension card or the coins to fully extend your player's contract. Does this make it better for you?
I have been playing football heroes for so long and absolutely love it, however since the introduction of the contract and retirement system the game is practically unplayable, despite owning the coin doubler, as I simply cannot sustain my team and progression is completely halted as a result. I know you guys need to earn money from the game, but is there any chance the contract system will ever be removed? I would also happily pay £5 or something to have unlimited contracts maybe something like this could be implemented?
I am sorry that you feel this way. The retirement feature has been removed from both Football Heroes 2015 and Pro. Have you used the watch video to extend the player's contract? Also there is a Contract Deck available in the store that contains longer contracts that will extend your players contracts. If you do not mind, could you go into more detail why the game is unplayable with the Contract system? This will help me figure out what to do.
Just my two cents. I think it is very generous of you guys to add contract extension via video. Although, rewards-cost balancing could still be improved, this method provides a good alternative. But I have yet to use this feature, so can't comment more than that. I would love to see new cards introduced. Instead of having the same card/player in multiple class (gold/silver/bronze). I thought it may be a better idea to introduce new cards every once in a while to keep us "long time" players motivated and wanting more. Not sure if this is feasible but new cards will offer more excitement.
I agree!! More cards with different versions such as "Legends" of whetever special versions would be awesome!
How would you recommend tweaking the rewards/cost balance? Would love to hear your ideas Introducing new cards is something that we are hard at work on for this years game. We are doing a lot of heavy lifting getting the game ready for this season, sorry about the delay for new content. What ideas do you have for new players?
