So that is balance and not footwork? Guess I'll find out soon after he gets from 16 to 60 balance.
hahaha its a guessing game

What's footwork at?

So is this caused by balance too? He has been running great in scrims today but then this happens, sometimes, on counters.

With a penalty to balance with rain and balance becoming more important it adds up to rain being an issue of your balance is shit.

I'm mostly saying the balance skill, and being off balance because of it, can cause some serious slowdown. Though a few bugs in the code will make it pretty...inconsistent. Fixing those inconsistencies will drastically swing the sim in another direction. Which leaves either keep the out of tune changes introduced in the offseason, or implement the fixes and drastically alter the sim after the season has started.

Always always always fix the code. Hotfixes during a season are always preferable than just waiting it out.

Both teams play the game using the same code, so why would you not fix it when it’s broke?

It comes down to intention / communication (which is why this forum harps so much on your lack of communication at times).

If you say, “we’re making Balance more important in blocking and rushing rolls” and then the code is the opposite of that, you need to fix it ASAP. You’ve intended and communicated your thoughts but implementing code is hard at times (we know that) so hotfixes are important AND expected.

That could be what was preventing him from properly turning during the counter sweep. It's been an on going things since before the balance fiasco, too low of FW on counters have caused that to happen even though it's not all the time.

this. footwork is what helps the turn on counters. balance apparently now is what helps you recover from a major direction return.

Well. The code doesn't do the opposite of that, so I think we are fine in that regard.

Could you further explain what the bug/bugs is/are and why a Hotfix may be incoming?

Bhall is right. It’s been tested plenty and Footwork helps with Counters.

Wow... Look at the build and the Tackle to Missed Tackle Ratio for S28 and S29.

after the direction change the players balance comes into play. footwork to like 30-40 helps the counter directional change.

this. 2 seasons worth of killer hits to power hbs have made the current meta power backs almost unusable.
