I pay fucking money too. Maybe peewee should get some kind of discount if our business isn't as important as others agents. To answer the OP it is no. It's just not heading in the right direction and no one seems to give a damn as far as admin. Maybe a little transparency with customers would be a more professional way to run a business. This is a business is it not? They take my money every month.

5% of customers with no one to replace them is a lot.

..yeah my assumption is that the changes haven't affected the pro levels in any way and this is just further making peewee and lower lvls more undesirable/unmanageable than they were previously! ...the developers had been working hard to make peewee suck in comparison to the higher leagues, and now they have fully achieved that ~ peewee is at death's door right now ~ the 'die hard' peewee supporters have all but left or are on the verge of leaving, which will signal the end of peewee and maybe GLB1 also?!? congrats bort you win, R.I.P. GLB!

There is plenty to find fault in this game, but the sim itself is not one of them. Having been here since season 1, it is galaxies better. Is it stale? Maybe a little, but it does seem at least at the top level that there are ways to build and counter build that actually offer some variety.

File me in the "someone's been messing with the sim and not telling us" crowd. It's most noticeable to me with lack of fumbles, kickers missing more often between 50-55 yards, and special teams blocking seems to have improved.

Not really that funny for those spending money boosting dots every season. Hopefully these tweaks have at least made pro levels better because low levels(which people spend money on as well) are definitely getting boring and cookie cutter. Nerf passing now and we are back to season 28 then adios remaining user base. Season 28 was a result of Frankinsteining which appears to be the direction we are headed again. No I'm not going to GLB2 if this sim goes to hell again. Roll it back and leave it alone, leave it alone.


Anyone having big success passing in the minors has done something with the builds to make it so and will pay the price in pro. I'd suggest ignoring that and waiting till your dots mature.

One or two things I'd like seen done:

Unfreeze the NT on screen plays.
Give us a custom D spot on CB in the 4-4 Big. Maybe even remove the OOP on that spot.
Give us custom D spots on all the D positions in the GL formation.

Everyone here blaming things on ninja-changes is forgetting one HUGE factor: builds. The sim may have frozen, but that doesn't mean build strategies have done so.

Now that the sim has been stable for a relatively long period of time, people have had some time to figure out the sim and have adjusted some of their build strategies accordingly in order to take better advantage of the sim as it stands now. The smart, cutting-edge builders did so right away. Everyone else on their teams saw the results they were getting and started copying their builds, and those build practices have been slowly propagating out to the rest of the userbase over time, over a prolonged period of time, several seasons or so.

That's my theory... but it's a theory that could easily explain why the game seems to be changing.

I think you are right on the spot. Therefore I think Bort has adjustments to make. All of the following suggestions would be minor, but allow a good response to the stuff that is dominating currently without effecting much else.

Unfreeze the NT on screen plays.

ignorance is bliss ya? ...it doesn't matter coz it only low lvls right?!? ...peewee builds don't change significantly from season to season, they have mostly remained the same over this prolonged period ...it still a sim change when zone coverage works for peewee one season and then doesn't the next ...has nothing to do with builds if the builds were the same for both of those seasons!

Literally I've noticed all 3 of these things.
Can't get fumbles south of lvl 79 anymore except on ST's.
Great Kickers missing 54 yard field goals quite often.
STOP's becoming even more of a necessity as they actually move sensibly in the back wedge now.

It'd be nice if we were told what was happening so we didn't have to speculate and guess.

Only thing I have seen is what looks like an increase in INTs. Otherwise it all seems the same.
