what about a gradual reset? wlarson suggested that you can give 1 vp back/day and put it where you want to.

you don't turn into something you are not OVERNIGHT. but you work for it.

I could get on that boat. I think that VA's, just like SA's and Skill Points, should be something you have you think about and not fling around willy nilly because you can just reset all the time.

This could be a good solution.

Or even make it a training option? Like, normal training (2 training points) (1 VP returned)

So bort, what's on the horizon as far as which suggestions from the suggestions forum you plan on implementing in the near future and next season?...haven't really seen much of you over there lately

Coaches! Main thing.

I also want to do a "rate this play" kinda thing so we can have plays of the week or something similar.

A few other things in the works with some design updates and such.

sounds pretty cool...take a look into the epics when you get a chance...quite a lot of nifty stuff...I think a couple new VAs were thrown into that thread, Moebius's awesome new stadium stuff thread, my more options for $ thread, an ironman league thread (really cool idea, imho), and alot of other cool stuff.

Any spoilers on the coaches?

I guess D Sands doesn't cut it? I'll go tell him.

Would be the first time you have talked to me. Jerk. =P

I think the full reset is way more exciting. It enables teams to try certain things each season depending on personnel and not being locked in forever if they take a chance and it doesn't work out.

I would choose to do away with Vet points all together but if its a must, I would rather a full reset every season. Makes things way more interesting.

I disagree. The sim is through the major overhaul phase at this point IMO (I think we're nearing a fairly close balance, with the exception of pass rushing, which isn't really that far off, and a few other random things here and there) and vet abilities are something you are meant to build up over time as your player becomes a veteran.

I understand the want for something to reset every season, to make it interesting, but I don't know if the VA's are it. That was certainly never the intention of them, and trying to shoehorn them into that mold probably isn't the best idea.

of course, his suggestion is an ADDITIONAL to your proposed ST VA reset

Ouuuuuuuuch. That Burns.

Not to sound like a kiss ass or anything but thanks for answering questions in this thread Bort...this might very well be the most informative thread in GLB main forum for a long long time.

You're just mad because Max and Pallow get the majority of my tongue wagging.

Referring to speed for a CB:

IMO speed only needs to be 95-100, since it doesn't seem CBs can ever get beat deep. Instead I think the points are better spent in agility (~80) and then have some high vision + jumping.

and a lot of this entire thread: http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=2655890

Bort, what are your thoughts on CB speed versus WR speed? Is Route Run SA an ample defense versus Shutdown Coverage SA? Does Ballhawk tilt the balance?


Hey, as long as you're in the thread and all...

Hey Bort, since you mentioned OAI earlier (pictures to pick plays), is there any chance that we could get some of the AI enhancements looked at this off season? You know, the stuff in Epic Suggestions in regards to improving AI functionality.

Yeah, I've perused that (which prompted the pick via a picture thing).

TBH, I think that in order to do some of the other stuff I will need to basically scrap the current AI interface and start over from scratch, with those things in mind.

One thing I think that could be really great, too, is to come up with an "intermediate" tactics option. Something where there are preset conditions, such as 3rd and long or 2nd and short, etc, and you just pick a list of plays to run in the situation. Sort of a pre-programmed AI, with a pick n' choose interface instead.

Also, are we having more endorsement items giving to the players next season? Can one be named after me?
