It'll probably be along the lines of Football Manager Live, which isn't very thrilling right now.

Tired of this push for online versions of games, for many reasons, all of which I'm too tired to go into right now. And I can understand why developers love them because the monthly subscriptions are a license to print money (while it's the extreme example, if only half their advertised subscribers are active, Blizzard pull in around 40 million dollars a month from World of Warcraft), for doing a fraction of the work a regular release requires.

Wonder if OOTP 8 will receive a price reduction? (Since I now have a computer which should work right with Facegen.)
