Bort, what about VA's such as Clever Instinct, etc that become useless as a player nears the close of his career?

It's not necessarily useless. If you don't boost, there's tons of people higher level than you.

Let FFA come up with some. We had a thread a while back with a bunch of names.

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.

I think the issue is with this off-season is that with teams having to make the roster cap, dedicated S/T players are being cut, which means players who otherwise wouldn't have played S/T now will be, but those players won't have access to switch over and choose S/T specific VA's if they want.

Edit: The fact is S/T specific players and the players who were on their teams are affected more than simply the one's who had the two specific VA's that are being allowed to reset.

Your answer is to not boost? Excuse me if I am missing something but that is just absurd.

This is a bizarrely good point and I'm surprised nobody thought of it 0_o

Bort.... Maybe one last poll to see if the player base would vote in a final Vet reset? I respect whatever you decide, and it was wrong for me to assume we would have another one this season coming up, but with the SIM being close to where you want it, I think this would be a great choice.. I would take a safer route knowing my team is now locked in.



I have a feeling what the outcome would be.

Hey bort, anyway i could come down to your office and get my wallet signed or something?
