Siskel & Ebert give this two thumbs up.

Reasoning:

Let's be honest, this would be for the hardcore GLBer who wants to make their dots better, not for a newbie player. Honestly, a new person wants to join and create a player, not have to spend hours in a simulator learning how to build dots.

If you want a VPB there is one out there, and if you want to help competition, help people. Make a newb filled team and give them the ways to build a dot. You will then learn that they really don't care, and they want to build it there way...

The only reason I don't, I would rather deal with builds that are "different" then cookie cutter builds. Not every football player is the same in real life.

the player builder would let people see what other builds are feasible without waiting 2 years to see the end result thus allowing different builds.

I think it would be great for newbies so they can get used to how players are built without having a 2 year learning curve that will most likely drive them away.

I think most of the hardcore players already have one. I have my greasemonkey script already, so don't need it. But I wish something like that was available when I started instead of after I found forums talking about where to find it and how important it was.

God no. I hate everything about the VPB. It takes all the fun out of it. I find it's always better to understand the position you're making and make decisions on the fly, not to mention the value in learning from your mistakes. This wont help anyone learn how to build a great dot, it'll show them what to do to get certain stats to certain levels but until they build that's too slow or too weak or fumbles too much, they wont understand why they need all the stuff they need and therefore wont be able to make any informed decisions on how to build their players. How anyone can plan their dots that anally is ridiculous to me.


The biggest -1 i've ever given. Aside from Injuries. So second biggest.

this would be awesome actually. it would better give you a vision to what you want to achieve.

Hey, I have an idea. Let's all just assume that we know exactly how a noob would respond to something that would help them if they use it. That way we never have to prove anything, and thus we never have any helpful tools for the masses that exist on GLB. I have to agree with you to some degree, I think it will help the hardcore players more than the rest, but let's be intellectually honest here. The hardcore players are already using a builder so why not make it simpler for the less hardcore players to become a hardcore player by not having to find the builder then assuming they understand how to install the builder (I know it is easy, but honestly why would a non-hardcore player go to this extreme). I think making things easier to become a "hardcore" player builder, thus making the game more competitive overall, should be the goal of GLB.

while you make good points. this only means that this addition to the sim is NOT for your taste. but having it available shouldnt effect you if others want to use it as a guide to pattern off of.

actually you stated it yourself.
