USM 2 Update

Well I checked the screenshots and seems really a cool game. Keep up the hard work, even text based match will be fine, I didn't like the new Championship manager mode (the one with top-down players) anyway! :twisted:

The topdown CM match engine is quite fun. I once tried to move all my players on the side of the field to see what happened. I thought I would have lost by a large amount of goals, instead the match ended 0-0!!! :lol:

Can we get another USM2 update as it is mid September?

Thanks!

Hi, just came back from a short 2 day vacation.
I can tell that surely version 1.0 won't have international cups, only league/national cups. I thought a lot about it but is better to focus on the text engine (I still have to start it) than adding other tournament right now.

What is missing in the game to be considered playable:
- transfer market for player team (CPU teams do it already quite well)
- text match engine
- new season checks (retire old players, create new ones, etc)

As said I think I can have a BETA in end of september, but not the final release. However we're getting very close

That's impressive.
I've been following the usm2 work-in-progress since almost 1 year now, like that other guy caveman. I didn't post before, but I sent you an email once, if you remember

I really doubt you'll make all that stuff in time by end of september. you're tryign to make a game comparable to CM, but that game took 2-3 years to make! and with a full team of programmer/researchers... :roll:

Don't want to discourage you of course, but I really doubt you'll make it by end of this month. If personally think that if you'll make it by this Christmas, will be already a record!

hmm not sure if I remember you... but I can tell you that I'm doing all my best to finish usm2 by end of this month. of course is possible that I don't make it in time, but I'm doing my best!

now excuse me, getting back to work

Well it sux, I know. But I had serious personal problems lately. I don't know when usm2 will be finished. Is 3 days that I'm not doing any work on it.
I'm sorry for all the people who are waiting for it but as of today I don't know when I'll finish it.

Unfortunately is not depending on me now. Thanks for your understanding

Ouch that's rough man. Sorry to hear that.

by **jack1974** » Tue Sep 19, 2006 4:54 pm

Yeah well... to clarify, nothing about health, but about women (maybe is worse!) :lol:

Anyway I'm going to take a definitive decision very soon, maybe after that I'll be able to resume working at full speed!

I know what you mean... and it's worse lol.
