Don't fuel the fire, Croverja!

There is a little story behind my "Dominating" words....Perhaps a few of us old-school users will tell you one day, perhaps.

Well, for now while I don't know it, I'll just say this game is in it's early stages, and 1 day it will be like bolstersam wants it. Just be patient.

What Guru is saying is there is nothing other than circumstantial evidence currently that the game is not already like that. Even if this post were to have statistical basis for what is going on it's in the wrong place. Oakland is winning and winning big, but it's a bit early to call it dominating. Two of his three last cup wins have been squeakers. I suspect that he might be facing a similar type game this week. Give it time before we go overestimating our early analysis of the game.

Bolstersam, In all honesty, I respect you have a right to your opinion, but leave the bold generalized comments to people who have actually spent some time on the game engine and can back some of what they theorize up on the field. you yourself have stated you don't have enough time to play the game, don't you think that would be a prerequisite for making broad sweeping judgements?

There are some things in this game that need work. Punting. RBs should be able to catch passes. Tackling on pass plays. The skills, however, are not one of them.

Punting is being worked on and should be there next year. I believe the admins may be consider passes to RBs as well.

As far as tackling, that has a lot to do with how bad the players are right now. I'd assume it will get better.

I think tackling on passing plays is just about right and people just aren't sure how good their players need to be at a given position or skill yet. My defense gives up the same statistical amount of long passes as it does long runs roughly, and theoretically long passes should be easier because there are less people to beat.

Bowler,

You may want to take a look at the Approved Suggestions thread, in the Suggestions Forum....

Oooops, I thought you were referring to BolsterSam for some reason! Apologies on that one!

So bolstersam doesn't play for 8 weeks, comes back and within 3 days has made a rash of unsubstantiated assumptions and declared the game broken.

Well cancel my account then, he must be right
