Most "changes" are and were essentially "bug fixes", not implementation of the many "suggestions" that are either up for a vote or have been re-suggested over half-a-dozen times.

"Bug Fixes" doth not equal "Suggestion Implementations", this is a given being that we cannot post bug fixes as a suggestion anymore

So again, the "changes" are updates that are noticeably needed (bugs), and not necessarily suggestions

Not sure who suggested the 5-2 defense, but that was an implementation I do believe...
Anyone want to take credit for this one?



Bhall mentioned the genesis of the new formations earlier in the thread I believe. They came out of a PF for Defensive Coordinators, not sure who specifically designed the plays.

If I want to get nit-picky, I was simply responding to the idea that no "changes" are being made. Yes the majority of changes are to resolve bugs, but they are still "changes". And suggestions are still being implemented into the game, maybe at a snails pace, but they are.

Would I like more suggestions to be implemented? Sure, there are some really good ones. Trust me the ones the Mods like or that the users really get behind are always brought up in the Mod Forum. It is a constant discussion. I believe at some point we will see more suggestion implemented for GLB. Though I have a hunch, that not only will that not be believed, but that it wouldn't matter if they'd did 1 a season or 1 a day, somebody would find a way to be mad and/or disgruntled about it.

Why are people still so hung up on this? Just because it is not what they see on Sundays? Are they upset as the kicking team or receiving team?

FWIW, real football rules allow for either a punt or kickoff (although without a tee). Kicking team will choose the punt as the hangtime allows them better kick coverage and less return opportunity. Not really sure that matters in GLB as both coverage teams in GLB are pretty equal but if I had to choose as the kicking team (the way football rules allow for), in GLB I would choose to kickoff.

Actually, this is only mostly correct. Most states allow for a kicking tee to be used. The ball can also be drop-kicked or punted. Should we add the drop-kick option in GLB since it is technically an option? As for who I think is upset about it, I would venture a guess as it being the receiving team. It seems the punt returners in general are more successful I think.

I am on board for most of what you say. However, I don't think you can count bug fixes as changes. Rather they are repairing something that wasn't working properly to what they should be working as. That is not a change really.

So Catch said there would be no more changes made to GLB. None, ever? That's just patently false. You'll have to produce the post. The other part is true, a lot of focus is being giving to developing the new games. Which is drawing most, but not all, focus away from GLB.



In all fairness he did not say none ever from what i remember. He basically said they were done working on the game because the developers are focused on new games.

I can't find the thread it is in so maybe he will clarify what he said. The above is not a direct quote. The one Romo quoted about how suggestions are implemented is not the quote I am talking about. I think it was in teh long thread about what would make GLB more enjoyable again but i can't find it.

Normally I wouldn't either, but fight fire with fire. So I got nit-picky.

I know pretty much what quote you are talking about and I'll try to find it. He didn't say permanently, I believe he said for the time being or something to that effect due to other projects.

That was actually a suggestion, though not for that specifically. But for the two-point play.

Which is why their whole argument would be moot. The kicking team makes the choice and as the kicking team (in the GLB world) , I would choose the kickoff for the same reason, to limit the return. This is why real football uses the punt as in their world it is a better option to limit the return, in GLB, the kickoff is the better option for the kicking team.

Sorry to get sidetracked. Just hate stale, and incorrect arguments.

Back to onside kicks :

He said no Major changes would be made to the game since they are out of Beta. Although that isn't to say nothing major will ever be done ever again to GLB. If something makes logical and business sense for them down the road, they will probably consider it.

This... but who cares... right?

I recall that as well... I think it was during a Q&A, which was why I pondered why people still make suggestions, other than to vent a little.

They will not "waste their time" on stuff that doesn't really create a huge outcry (refer to Hurry-Gate S27?).

Alright I get it. Reading comprehension is not your strong suit.

It wasn't the out of beta no major changes statement. It may have been in the last Q & A thread like dahman32 said. I like GLB and I keep pushing this because I want to see the game move forward and get better.

Catch did recently post that he was going to look at Pee Wee restructuring due to all the CPU teams although this was after admitting he had not looked at teh leagues in quite some time and only noticed due to the thread.

Also, sorry to yello1 for hijacking his thread.
