Possibly but their builds are quality and even their throwaway ai will be tight.

how would you know what a tight AI is? seriously Yello1 you are funny alot of the top players on GLB do not gameplan or anything at all until Pros and WL. their players are put onto farm teams where new agents learn to coordinate or the teams just use basic AI's.

Merely relying on what I have been told of the legend that is hcreek.

And I am not suggesting they game planned, nor that anyone did against them. Just that the AI is good as is.

The fact that they are so unable to compete that gameplanning isnt even in the mix is part of my point by the by.

or it is just a team to hold dots for a season

OC/DC's at the top level don't generally waste their time in the pros - I know JT barely has time to do anything for HOOD during the regular season in WL

don't assume these people are putting in shitloads of time on teams like these - it is just a placeholder in all liklihood

Not sure how to say it any more clearly.

Hcreeks shittiest AI he would activate from his My AI section is going to be a tight AI. Why would he make a crap one just to use on a farm team???

As for the dots, the dots builds are being built for World League and are less than a season away. So they are going to be really good builds right now.

Yet they lost by 61 points to my team, more, as much as 255 points, to others. And no I did not game plan either.

That sort of result should play no role in an American Football Sim.

And yet it happens all the time, to players who are far less savvy than Hcreek and company, players who are trying and who are going to think

gee my builds do not matter. Why the frak did I bother?

And they will log and leave.

I mean come on people, how can you defend a sim with such crappy lopsided results???? And one that is clearly NOT working given the need to contract leagues due to decreasing player populations at that.

Its like saying "No no really, if you didn't bring your own lifeboat why should White Star have made one for you?"

just like football.

-1

and if there weren't plenty of randomness, then CPU dots wouldn't beat down human dots

So, you are complaining that a team of 79s beat a team of 72s?

By 60 to 255 points, and that they would do so each and every time the game was simulated no matter what.

Yes. I am.

72s are in the range of dots that can be on a Pro field in this game.

They should be able to reasonable compete with 79s in such a way that on any given sunday, they could luck out and sneak a win.

And even when they do not, it should be close enough to be interesting.

If the NFL was handing its consumers 90 to 0 blow outs every weekend, the NFL would be out of business.

GLB will be as well if nothing is done.

And no - contracting leagues because half of your customers left is NOT the something that has to be done.

Hmm, build matter : 165 speed WR kill 155 speed CB.
build not matter : 120 str FB / TE can't pancake 70 str LB / CB.
