Nothing major planned. Just bugfixes, etc.

Yea, it's bug in PF for you btw. Not sure we'd be able to replicate that but you have to admit it's pretty lol.


Gotta be something funny with fumbles; there's that and the couple of times a fumble was marked "intercepted" instead of "recovered." Def hard to duplicate though; probably some sort of odd series of events that comes up very rarely.

Why is Catch asking Bort questions as if they have not communicated in days/weeks. Do the 2 of you not communicate on the state of the game at least on an every other day basis?



In season, it's probably once or twice a week. Off season, it's probably once or twice an hour.

Is Route Run SA a flat bonus, or is the bonus dependent on the player's attributes?


It's a flat bonus.

Bort - why do you hate blitzing. Why does blitz pressure have to be more blitzes than blockers and anything less is exploiting blocking logic?


Eh, I don't hate blitzing. I hate gimmicky blitzes that work way too often because the blockers react incorrectly. NFL teams don't get a lot of pressure from sending 4 defenders on 5 blockers either.

Does Breath factor into rolls? For example will a CB or Receiver with a lower breath get a penalty to stat(s) in a roll during their contest for the ball while involved in a catch/deflection due to breath?


No, it just applies an overall penalty to attributes.

So if said player was at say 15% energy right before the half and he only had say 12 in stamina, is it safe to say that he may still only be 15-17% energy coming out of the half?



Yeah, he probably wouldn't gain a whole ton.

Another issue that would be hard to replicate, but needs attention.....



Yea that's on my list as well.

Question from another member:

"So let me see if i have this right for every 10 points under a 100 the whole team losses 1% of its attributes through a penalty ."

Follow up question:

How much does chemistry increase per day?

If a Dot misses a tackle due to a spin, will it still get a diving tackle chance?

Are you guys going to fix your lead passing on crossing routes? Because yeah it's slightly better but it's still shit. It makes it absolutely pointless to get separation if the QB's throw forces them to slow down and unable to get any YAC.

Also, with the changes you've made to blitzing LB's and making omnipotent O-linemen... are we going to make Disguise Blitz worth a shit or is it just a LOLSA... or are you trying to force blitzing towards the form of stronger block breakers and move away from the speedy around the blocker/shoot the gap types?


Lead logic generally works as it should from what I've seen; often times a pass led short is either the QB sucking, or he's trying not to lead out of bounds or into additional defenders. I think sometimes receivers might end up catching the ball a little early or something, though, if the pass is sort of along their path, even though it would hit them more in the chest one or two ticks in the future. I might play with adding some look-forward logic to catching.

Disguise blitz works much better when defenders are not right on the line or near it. Set your blitzers further back and blockers will have a harder time passing vision checks, if that's your strategy. Really, any blocker should be able to see a guy 3 feet in front of him.

Is that in addition to a penalty applied to energy or are they the same?


Same thing.

Is that trigonometry or calculus?

So there is no set increase per day, but a formula?


It's set based on the formula.

Yeah, we sent out an email to past users a while back; we will probably send another when we leave beta. We've had some banner ads and such around here and there, will probably do some more. When we get some of our newer projects off the ground we'll see some more eyes on the site as well.

Is there any consideration for agent created tournaments built into GLB? with some setup options.

I could have sworn catch mentioned this on a GLB radio show a while back....just curious what the prospects are if any?


Yeah, the tourney running code already is set up to do it; we just don't have an interface to create and list a tourney. Not sure how high on the priority list it really is, though.
