Not rollout in offseason. Just have the information on the release date available by the start of the offseason. We are setting up rookie rosters right now. Owners and gms are recruiting for their teams that they still care greatly about and want to keep going. If you turn those customers off by causing an unexpected loss of players from agents who find out after they have said "yes" to either making new dots or keeping their current dots active you have set up yet another round of rage quits. From both sides. Either you are pissing off the agents who would have dedicated more flex to making dots for 2 because they don't want to break commitments to people they have know here for quite some time, or you're pissing off the people who plan on continuing to pay to play here by undercutting their recruiting at the last minute when they may not have time to recover.

Just give us a little heads up. Doesn't seem like too much to ask.

While I completely agree a heads up (when they know for sure) is completely the right move. You aren't making a good argument here.

Seems like you would get that "unexpected" (lol at that tbh...you know the game is coming out soon...if that agent is gonna dime bag you he is gonna dime bag you..their release date at this point isn't the problem) loss of an agent regardless of the release date.

You are correct in that we've already gone past what would have been the ideal time for a firm commitment from the admin on whether 2 is going public before day 40 of season 38 in 1. The speculation is that will be the case, but I have seen nothing official from those that would know. It might have been mentioned by admin in that massive thread? I don't see an announcement about it. But that is what I'm talking about. I don't need a firm release date right now. Just an official announcement that it will roll at some point during the time period that coincides with season 38 of 1. If they are not willing/ready to make that kind of commitment right now, then I think it would be in their best interests to say (again, right now) the release will not overlap with season 38 of 1 so no reason to retire dots and sit on flex guys. Even if making that statement ends up meaning they are sitting with a product they are comfortable with in alpha for a few weeks longer then necessary. Or hell, show some REAL good will to their current customer base. Greatly expand the alpha phase and let all of us test it for free for a shortened season (or something) while we finish up the next "real" season here. But I don't see how it is beneficial to cut the legs out from under this game IN ANY WAY.

Why should the paying customer's of this game even need to make a "good argument" about getting information that will significantly affect the game we are currently paying to play? Especially if that information really is (as you seem to indicate) already common knowledge to some?

all i read from this is that youd like to make me a cover LB and a G for my rookie team this off season.

thanks bhall.

It's obvious from the question in the OP that some people are attempting to plan what to do here based on when the new game is coming out.

When I tried to make a rookie team to start this season, most of the people I asked said they wanted to wait to see what's going on with 2. I ditched it to wait for next season because, hopefully, we'll know something then.

In my post, I said I think it would be a good idea to time the start of the first GLB2 season with the start of a new GLB1 season, as that will allow people to dabble a bit and plan for it, but that's not really the point (at all) of the OP or the questions being asked about the release.

The point is to know what's coming up that might affect this season. If it's going to roll out this season, fine, good to know. People might retire some dots, save some flex, etc. If it's not, fine, good to know. People an play another season with the dots, not retire them, etc.

The decision on when 2 rolls out affects GLB "Classic"

Corndog and Bort don't even know. Why make a statement about something you are unsure of at this point?
