New teams are in the final stages of planning.. any chance you could finalize some archetypes or let us know when they'll be released?

Anything more than the vague outline we have so we're able to continue without stalling our plans.

Do you like rushed products that need to be nerfed within the first season and a half, or well tested products?

Did I ask for archetypes to be released? No. I asked if we could get a clearer idea of what's going on with them.

Try not to get involved in threads you don't belong. If you know something about archetypes, let us know, if not, quit cluttering up the thread.

That's a pretty accurate list as of now. The custom archetype SA isn't going to happen though, but we're working on something different in regards to that.

Awesome man. Do you have any idea whether we're looking at a release this season or next season?

I'm sure you're aware a lot of team like to create players on day 31.. Obviously if archetypes were introduced, it wouldn't be until the off-season, but I remember something about being able to pick one if you've already created a player.

Basically, my team, and many others aren't going to create if archetypes aren't in sight yet, and it does take A LOT of planning to get a team together.. Any guesstimate about when would be helpful.

We're doing the best we can to get it out by day 31. Not going to rush it out if it's not ready though. I'd say most likely scenario is sometime between day 31 and sometime in the off season. Worst case we post pone it a season(that would be if testing end builds goes terribly - we're about to get started on this sometime in the next two to three days). I'm optimistic that it'll be out before next season.

can you give us a hint of what the alternative is and why the custom SA isn't happening (not enough time to test and balance new SAs?)?

Do you like customers being rushed to make last minute changes to their player(s), team(s), and strategy, because no true timeline or final product has been shown yet. And most likely wont be shown until a couple of days prior to its release?

Here are the current problems...

1) Changes have been made to the archtypes just 13 days ago (and I am sure changes are being made on an on-going basis if major flaws are presented)
2) There is no timetable (afaik) set yet for the release. It is likely the earliest it'll be released is D41 of this season (or during playoffs) which is 25 days from now.

Do you ever post anything that is informative or of substance? Seriously, you are a moderator, don't you think you would act with a little more professionalism?

We can complain about the sim all we want, but it is individuals like you that give GLB a bad name. Act like a moderator for once. HELP PEOPLE DON'T SLAP THEM AROUND!!!!!!!!

Exactly... this is what I'm talking about. A+++ for customer service right there.

We the customer know how much of a pain in the ass this must be for you guys to put it out. You as the supplier must know how much of a pain it will be for us too. This change definitely goes both ways.

Again A+, informative and helpful. Thank you very much!
