Regarding training results, they do seem random. But I think the big key is the in-season rating increases with how you use players.

are we going back to all american like in the B10/P10 dynasty or are we staying with how the sliders were this past season?

Funny thing... I think the sliders we used last year didn't copy over (at least they didn't look the same) I just have to find where I wrote them down to make sure we have the right sliders.

But the idea is to keep the Heisman sliders. Really only 2 people complained about them and it was for different reasons. Overall I think they were pretty decent and I don't want to see 110-7 scores like I am seeing in Iron's dynasty.

basebuck when did you get all those 4* guys?

I guess it must be because I have a team with a weaker offense

my major complaint is that like for me I have some [censored]ty QBs, they would be at least serviceable if the sliders were how they are in the B10/P10 dynasty, but with the way the sliders we have are it makes them completely awful, they kind of punish the players who are not spectacular and do nothing to the spectacular ones

I'll take a top 5 ranking any day... However, I got a late 4* guy in the offseason and no wonder he hadn't been signed or offered yet. He is a 4* recevier that I signed the last week of the offseason and he's a 72 OVR and I'm going to have to cut him. I should have just let him go to Virginia. The 4* punter that I signed on the spot in week 1 of the season is also a 72 OVR, and he's a fucking JUCO. Lucky for him, he's marginally better than my current Jr. punter, and will likely make the team. I have a stud at kicker though, so I'm going to have to exclude the punter from the depth chart to give him a RS.

The 3* guys that I've gotten in the offseason have been the real gems of my recruiting in this dynasty.

I'm pretty sure that I have them written down. I'll let you know when I get home.

Hmmmm, shitty QBs acting shitty in the game. Seems about right to me

The only way you can RS a punter or kicker is if you have another on the roster. You can't have a kicker perform both duties and then RS your lone punter.

Okie State stole one of my WR's too. You guys took the mediocre guys though that weren't my main targets.

What angers me most is that FS you took from Virginia. And not that you signed the recruit. It was the fact that I was waiting until I was number one on his list to offer him. Then I got to number one and [censored]ing forgot to offer him, even when he came to visit and had an A+ visit. I'm a Knucklehead

Can you redshirt JUCO's?

I got a 3 star speed back earlier in the season. He has like 75 trucking and 89 speed. Hopefully he gets a shot to play before the summer ends this dynasty. WTF am I supposed to do with this game when the new one comes out and makes it obsolete?

 

[THEWOOD]

That WR I stole from you has 91 speed.

And yes you can RS JUCOs...I do it all the time.

You can't officially RS them, or any other player at a position that may put that position below the minimum amount. Minimum amounts are garbage though. Just completely remove the guy from your depth chart, and voila...now he's redshirted.

"Real Football Strategy for Video Games 101" says that kids handle both duties all the time, while other players develop. So that's how I handle it too. :tongue2:

Can you redshirt JUCO's?

Any player that doesn't have an "RS" attached to their grade can be redshirted.

That's some sneaky shit right there. I am now regretting not knowing this.

That doesn't mean anything with these sliders. Hell, no one can catch a cold.

Ha Ha!! I'm not Last!!! Not really that far off of #37 either

Thats what user catch is for...also he will be on the bench for 1 maybe 2 seasons.

I am pretty proud of this class from a ranking standpoint. It is pretty tough to recruit the big time recruits in any large quantity. I may have one game-changer in this class @ RB-Harris, but the three 5* recruits will all red-shirt and the one CB may never start. I'm hoping that the 14 3* will develop in couple of years to low to mid 80 type players for depth.

 

[IronBuckI]

That's some sneaky shit right there. I am now regretting not knowing this.

meh. I pay very close attention to my depth chart. I don't just put my top rated guy at each position, I try to put the guy with the best attributes at each position. IMO, awareness is weighted too heavily for each position. Especially on defense, where there's a ton of other "awareness-type" of attributes that are very important to how good a player is. I have a CB that's got most of the defensive attributes rated in the mid 80's to high 90's, but his awareness is low, making him my 4th or 5th highest rated CB. Garbage. He's started the last two seasons, and will at least be my nickelback this season.
