Warrior General Games

Why so quiet around here? Everyone too busy playing with the advanced AI? There's been a lotta changes to the game so I'm excited just to watch how they unfold tomorrow.

We've put in a lot of wacky stuff just to try out for these 2 games just to see how much the game has actually changed. Should be fun.

I don't know about you but we have a brutal pre-season schedule. I mean Eurotrash Rabid Bats and Bonn Dynamo are two of the best in Alpha. What were the preseason schedule Gods thinking?

WOW. I just noticed that you have the same schedule as us just in reverse and neither of us have a home game in the preseason. What are the preseason schedule Gods thinking?

yeah i am trying the new features out in my scrimmage game

Yeah, it appears they tried to match up teams with similar season 3 finishes. As for Home/Away games, there are no tickets or concessions so it really doesn't mean anything.

the pre-season schedule Gods are thinking the same the scrimmage schedule Gods OR the scrimmage gods ARE the pre-season schedule gods

I'm totally busy with financial and tactic ^^

But we will be ready for revange against the same team than last season scrimmage. They were the only team to beat us

Right back at you. Well, we will at least get to see how we fair against the best. Good luck everyone.

FYI, my expansion team's scrimmage game had a total of ZERO throws to the WR. It might be a little screwy

Some bug in the AI caused us to go for it on every 4th down, including from our own 16. Very confusing...

On the plus side, I have nothing but respect for Bonn's offensive line and the fact that Magnus got past them 8 times while set to play the run is almost scary to me. Should be a very interesting season...if we figure out how to punt

I'm a bit annoyed with our recent game. It's not a dig at Amsterdam at all. They're a good team and I can handle losing to them (we lost to them in the 4th scrimmage game in fact and it was a fair result).

We do a good job defending passes from their starting QB. Then their backup QB enters, throws 5 passes, completes 3 of them, two of which are long TDs. This was on back to back series too.

Meh, oh well. Back to the drawing board.

i think the games were bugged. no offence to Bordeaux but we beat them 13-0 last season. Both teams have got much better and if you look at the Matchup Comparison we edge it plus our better Chemistry. But for us to lose 48-14 to a team that are not better than us.........its not realstic. stuff me using the Al's again. I also saw that West Country Wyverns lost to the Paris Conols who they beat by 15+ last season and my team beat them. kinda wierd........

No offense but my team is way better than last season. And i have tried with cleverness my IA. I don't have crazy tactics or IA. I have just chosen simple.

The 4th and 10 on your 2 yards line was funny ^^


And i was on holidays for our previous match... some of my players was GMs. But you deserved to win, no problem with that. That's just past.

Just don't say that's not realistic because we had, too, problems within this game. Perhaps you think Bordeaux is not better than your team, that was not my though

Perhaps next scrimmages, you will prove you was right, i just saw a 48-14 result today

Yeah, I noticed that too and meant to ask if you guys were doing that intentionally or if your settings were botched. You guys were going for every 4th down in the middle of the game regardless of field position or yards to go. then you started punting again in the 4th quarter. Awesome game for Magnus though, jeez. If bort's settings don't change you should absolutely decimate your conference as an individual player even more so than you have in the past.

I also noticed both QBs struggles mightily to complete passes, and I noticed some funny play counts for our offense as well. Gotta love new settings...

Yeah, I already started a thread in the bugs forum with it and even Bort is taking a look. It appears to be a legit bug because I can't really see anything actually wrong with our settings; http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=707653&page=1#5394360

And hopefully our QBs struggling to do anything says a lot about our defenses and not about the QBs. I at least know your guy will wind up being alright.
