And yet I enjoyed the randomness for some bizarre reason.

Always hidden, or revealed after X number of seasons? I think they do something like that with rookies in franchise modes in most new sports games.
It would be kind of interesting to have a reveal, but the problem is you would have so many perfectionists retiring their dots if they didn't get the X-factor they were hoping for.
You could add some element of choice in (like there are 80 possible combinations, but you can only pick one from a random list of 4), but that kind of defeats the purpose and wouldn't prevent people retiring to get the one they wanted.

Nah just a god given talent.
Like in real life:
Some people work hard to get to the pros. Great build
Others have it handed to them through raw talent and coaching. Lucky X factor
While still others have it handed to them through raw talent, AND they work hard. Lucky X factor + Great build

Is it the aeq? I thought regular pink equipment, especially shoes, unlocked it. Also, I read if stamina ends at 94.82, it also unlocks the x factor. Then your confidence attribute score is the percentage of the x factor for your dot.

Yup. I love when there is a build that defies explanation. I remember Cryptotich had a HB that was always posting crazy numbers when there was absolutely no obvious reason why.

Just realized I had X factor and raw talent backwards, but the point got across.
I remember when a returner could average 1 TD per WL playoff game despite playing on different teams and in different sims. Oh wait, only one returner has ever been good enough to do that. I guess that dot was just that much better than every other returner ever made.

Absolutely. That was like all the fun back then. Assuming some random play was involved making people great and going bonkers trying to figure out why your build wasn't as good despite being almost identical.
