Some questions regarding the 3-4 defense.
1) Why was a penalty necessary to halve the effectiveness of the Defense General SA with a random firing between the RILB and LILB? Why not just have it work from one position like RILB?, similar to the defensive line where there are 2 DT's but Line General only works from the NT position.Originally posted by Bort
It's not meant to be a penalty. It's just what made sense at the time.It might not have been meant but it effectively acts like one since you have to double up on a SA at the end of an Ability Tree that only works half the time in the 3-4. It makes using the 3-4 prohibitive when managing energy since there is a significant drop off compared to the 4-3 when using the General series on defense during the course of a game (the General SA is the best in my opinion). Half the NFL is using the 3-4 now
.
Any chance of bringing this in line (the 3-4 formation) with the other General series, in needing only one position to gain full benefit in all formations?
