any chance you could make the distances in the scouting tool user definable? the new updates to it are pretty good, but that one little thing spoils it a bit - 0-3, 3-10 and 10 yards doesn't really match up with most people's AI's, if you can't make it user definable, at least change it to 0-3, 3-7, +7 at least maybe?

also - in the auto adjust, does a incomplete pass have any effect ?


It's on our too do list for new user interface stuff. Not a guarantee that it will happen but something we will try and get done.

If it's incomplete for reasons other than a drop, it has an effect.

Strength, carrying, agility, vision, velocity at time of impact = avoid fumble
Strength, tackling, agility, vision, velocity at time of impact = cause fumble

Compare the two, smash 'em together and roll some random dice. You get your outcome.


To clarify, if you are moving faster carrying the ball than it increases your avoid fumble score?

Is the Hold Block versus Break Block roll separate from the Pancake versus non pancake roll in the blocking sequence of events or are they a combined roll? If they are separate rolls which I tend to think they are does Hold Block % gear increase your blocking score during the Pancake roll ?


They're separate things, but related. The longer you can hold your block, the more chances you get to try for a pancake. Hold block doesn't have any direct effect on your actual chance to pancake on each try.

oh jeez, by 5 to 6 i figured you meant a time zone that mattered

My question though, is about O line blocking vs blitzers. The only way to fix this is to basically tell the O line who is blitzing (like Peyton manning and Drew brees do with a hard count to see who jumps). Then if there is more blitzers then blockers, you get the option to hold back a HB or TE. Then if there are still more, the O line decides who to leave out. Opinions on that? I am just tired of seeing my RG run across the pocket trying to pick up the ROLB.


Actually we have a solution to this. We'll be posting that soon as well.

Question about pass quality hits when a QB is "passing while moving"

This QB was set to "scramble never" yet moves around the pocket alot. As do many QBs
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1416629&pbp_id=8336926

Q1) Does the above constitute a hit to pass qual by virtue of "passing while moving"
Q2) Would the OnTheRun SA help buffer pass quality even in the above situations where it's *not* an official 'scramble' since not going outside the pocket?

Thanks!

Are there any plans of level 72 boosts being extended because the max xp rule changed after season 11

Is passing style directly related to pass height?

For example: I see LB's with no more then 30 catching yet they intercept bullet passes in -99 style at an alarming rate due to the fact that they are in the passing lane. If a pass was more loftier would it sail over a shallow LBer or does the ball take the same path of ball height every time?


Yes, a loftier style will send passes higher more often.

good to hear, by soon you mean before next season hopefully.

Next question, you say we have a poll coming in for the suggestions to determine what is most important... couple problems i see with that, one, people will troll like no other, 2 biased opinions, i know i am going to vote all my suggestions in Epic first... im sure others would do the same, any plans to counteract these 2 variables?

this isn't an important question, but it seems from my observations like catching plays a role in how quickly a KR/PR is able to get moving when they catch the ball. Is this correct?
