Warrior General Games

Have more Events show during Replays but have some show in the player listing section.

I was thinking how it would be cool to have a pop up graphic of a high light hit or catch or pancake in a play if one happened. Canned thing that could have player names and maybe logos pasted onto it. But that would get old and not be worth the effort probably.

But what would be easier, more informative and not get old would be more textual or simple graphical information of the sort we get now with Pump Fake and Im Open! and so forth.

However there is only so much room on the screen and the dots are so close together it would be of limited informational purpose anyway, you wouldnt know who was being effected.

But on either side of the screen you have the name of every player on the field. And room around that name.

Why not have the icons/text of the events on the field flash and linger and fade next to or above or around the name of the players being faked or faking, pancaked or pancaking, surging or hard hitting, so that we could see when all the SAs and other events on the field take place without obscuring the play on the field AND see exactly which dots are involved at the same time.

Have the fade away between plays not happen until the play is advanced so we can see better which players did what.

Would this be so hard? Would it be so useless?

I think it would be cool. It would also give someone with a dot in the game more interest in watching I think.

-1 just because there are alot more things that need done. and I am sure the coding would be very hard to do. seriously Yello1 if you put as much thought into building Dots and running your teams. as you do the constant string of useless suggestions. you could actually have a team that wasn't to bad.

Things pop into my head while building the dots etc. Or driving in the car.

Takes mere moments to type them up while waiting for agents to flock to my teams from the PMs I have just sent out.

As for the "Not a high priority" issue, no its not. Though its more than chrome. Being able to see all the things going on in the game would be valuable feedback in the building of dots and teams and tactics.

That said, this is not the Suggestions For Top Ten Priority Ideas, but all ideas. And Bort seems to implement them in an order of his own choosing, likely to deal with simplicity of implementation. Is this such an idea? I dunno. Maybe. The player list is simple text and graphics. They do not move. The events are already recognized by the program, adding a triggering line to a graphic might be tedious but not likely to be overly complex. The format is already written for the ones that DO trigger events in the statistics and in the replay screen. I would guess, though its only a guess. that this would be moderately onerous at worst.

See absolutely no need or benefit to this.

You see no benefit to seeing when a pancake happens or a juke or a head fake or a first step or any of the SAs and VAs that trigger???????????

You can already see many of these things when they happen without an icon or text. Why the hell would you need to see everything single thing that fires every play of the game? So no, I don't see any benefit to it.

I didn't even read all of the suggestion but I'll give it a +1.

Seeing how often something you spend SPs on works would be pretty useful information as to the usefulness of that expenditure, IMO.
