REGARDING RELEASE DATES
Is it true I can release a mod that is based on the latest FIFA earlier than I do? YES
Could I have released a FIFA 22 mod this season before FIFFA 22 was officially releasd? YES
Would that make many people happy? YES
Is the mod in a state I could release it today? YES
Would my YouTube channel be more popular if I did lots of updates? YES
Would other channels and websites use that base to build their mods? YES
Do I mind this? NO
Would it give people something to play whilst waiting for the big mod? YES
Lots of reasons to release a mod early. So why don't I?
Usually...
Previously I have waited until the mod is almost a 'finished product' before releasing. This meant that almost everything has to be complete before release. Which takes a long time. In fact last season I didn't finish everything I had planned. This season will be slightly different. So please be patient as this season is going to be a bit special.

Lots of reasons to release a mod early. So why don't I?
- I have given release dates before and I have often not released on that day for one reason or another.
- I do not work just on FIP 14.
- I grew tired of people waiting to use the mod for making money so do not wish to give them an advantage. Do you understand how frustrating it is to see YouTube channels that update my mod have double my subscribers and earn more money when they have no involvement in the creation of FIP?
- Every season I look to try and do things that haven't been done before. From visual like new body models and themes. Audio like new commentary. Game enhancing changes like playing all leagues in Career Mode, to hidden stuff like HBZ Career mod, Revolution Mod updates.
- Then there is the really hidden stuff like testing new software. Building new scripts. And other things like new methods of creating elements quicker. Cleaning the previous season mod. Updating player IDs. Getting access to new files. Updating league names, managers, stadiums and also helping to manage others who contribute to the mod from all over the world. All of that stuff takes time. Which is the one thing I don't have.
