First you make the basics THEN you tweak, not the other way around. There are so many variables required for a perfect FM that this sim doesn't even model in the first place!

I think the game should be handed over to modders BUT under some kind of quality control framework, otherwise it will remain one of the most potential and unfulfilled sim of all times. CloD screams potential, since day one but it needs the right people tapping away on that code and making those 3D models.

I agree with your first paragraph addman, so much dev time was wasted on things that could have been placed on the back burner.
