I agree that there is no depth from setting tactics, managing the money and stadium stuff for a team, player builds, and even the new tactics give you a lot to do but will it matter when it comes to Ws? i feel the game is much simpler than everyone tries to make it out to be. Even after the advanced AI, player builds will trump it all.
Yeah it will get interesting. Right now everybody oversimplifies the game in my opinion because I look at the tactics a LOT differently than everybody else does, so from my perspective I feel that virtually every other owner in this game is not seeing what I'm seeing.
your just trying to act like you have some edge on the curve, i don't buy it.

Can we go back to this, please? I would like to know this secret 5-10 minute way of scouting a good opponent during the playoffs. I can scout a crappy team in that time, but if it's a good opponent, I spend quite a bit more than that.

Well it is very simple...there isn't a whole lot to change no matter how much scouting you do. You take crappy teams for granted thus not spending time on them. Why do you spend more time against a team with comparable or better quality? a look at levels, team stats, DC and the roster will tell you how good a chance you stand. So on Offense you gameplan your strengths and on Defense you gameplan to stop the opponents Os strengths or cover your teams D's weaknesses. Shouldn't take very long to accomplish.
let me know when you win a game playing to your Os weakness just because your opponent's seem to be weak in that area.

We have, many times in the past. We've won the game with primarily running inside, outside, passing short, medium, and long, passing to WRs, TEs, and RBs, against equal teams. There's no way we're so good that we are good at all of those things.

You honestly think it was the tactics that won the game as apposed to having better builds or outleveling the team? I call BS on that statement that you played your teams weaknesses and won. You didn't beat a team that was overall better probably not even one that was equally matched.

Can we get Bort to just close down GLB because this guy obviously knows everything and there's no point in playing any longer. Pack it up, everyone.
Originally posted by GRiPSSL Vanilla how can you claim that the game doesn't have depth when we had a nice discussion about tactics not meaning much which to me equates no depth, you think they matter more than me meaning there is some depth?
Oh Jesus MonkeyF##king Christ. There's some amount of depth in the game. Tactics mean something, builds mean something, etc. etc. but this game is closer to checkers then chess right now (here's hoping the new tactics help slide that bar a little the other way).
That's why it's jaw dropping to listen to TSE talk about looking at the tactics screen and seeing the letters and numbers falling like the matrix. This game isn't rocket surgery, it's very simple.

Between TSE and Grip, I really don't know why Bort bothers anymore. Good try Bort, better luck next time (hey on the brightside, if you pay TSE 2 million very useful GLB-dollars, maybe he'll teach you how to code).

What would 2 million do for use when we have what 36 mill. If there is no depth then why are you 7-3 and not 10-0. Also GRiPSSL is a dumbass. The guy owns an 0-2 team. Because you know there is no Depth so he should be beating every ones ass in to the ground with is 10 mins of scouting.
DDL beat the Pushovers who outlevel use by about 2 levels. They also mite have better builds. Who knows. So from what you have stated we had no chance? Then how did we beat them? Could had been are tactics :O No it couldnt had been could it. Now leave and let the adults chat for a little GRiPSSL.

Thanks Dravz but i honestly don't know everything about this game which is why I engage in discussions with people to learn more. If it is upsetting to you then I am sorry for that but how about change my mind with some of your ideas.

All that sounds dandy but theres no way of knowing what the reason for your beating a team that outleveled you by 2 levels...I am betting builds not tactics. This isn't my first rodeo i owned a AAA W Euro team for 2 seasons so I have had my share of tactics and did a lot of scouting and analyzing all for not. I am a student of this game and have every right to my opinion. so you can make judgements about my 0-2 team all you want.
