The newest patch has been released fixing the two most-reported match engine issues:
1. Players should no longer run off the field during kick-ins (haven't entirely confirmed this is fixed, but it doesn't happen anymore, and it should be fixed.)
2. Players were occasionally sitting on the bench the whole game.
This should conclude all of the major bug fixes from release meaning version 0.6 is next!
The next big features planned in the road map for v0.6:
- The "Coaches Meeting" tab was introduced but has a "coming soon" label - this is the most important feature that didn't make it into launch. You'll be able to coach players weekly on morale and training... or as always, simply leave it up to your assistants
- Start your game off with a fantasy draft
- More immersion with content and news articles
Also, the older AFC scenarios have started to transition to the new AFC2020 data format, starting with the 2014 season. While data updates won't be version-specific, some users enjoy season replays, and the data formats aren't wildly different, so you may see some older seasons appear in your new game list as time goes on. (You could, if you wanted to, create a season sim for any season in history if you tweaked the attributes properly.)
