My question is on your announcement of the Season 24 AEQ Bonus Token refund Catch22.

I still have shopping tokens on 2 of my players at the moment. I was intuitive enough to save them up, before all the major AEQ changes we had coming and before the end of adding more shopping tokens.

I've found some of my AEQ through the use of using Shopping Tokens,then spending the 15 BT's or whatever the amount was to purchase whatever AEQ available for me.

When season 24 comes,will I be able to sell whatever AEQ I have and not only get back whatever Bonus Token Upgrades I've made,but also the 15 BT's (or whatever the cost it was) in purchasing the AEQ at the beginning using the shopping tokens I had?

(I ask this question cause there can't be many members left, with still having those shopping tokens)

Thank you
Ace!


We don't track shopping token usage, so unfortunately your best bet is to buy a piece with every shopping token and converting it to a piece that makes more sense for your player. You'll of course receive a refund of any BT's invested in the piece bought with shopping tokens, so that should not be a worry.

Just out of shear curiosity, what happens in Casual if you go 100% Single Back and 100% FB Runs???


Not sure. Haven't tried that. I'm sure Bort has some code in place where it reallocates the runs to the HB's/QB's in that instance.


In the old days (when you'd just say Pass, Singleback, FB primary receiver), it'd just take you back one step. So it'd be a selection of all the Singleback pass plays as if you never chose a primary receiver. I assume that AI mechanism was never changed.

Your assumption is correct I think.

Is any consideration being given to modifying the pricing structure of players? Specifically, Wide Receivers, Defensive Tackles, and ( possibly ) Tight Ends ?

Also, any consideration being given to lowering the overall pricing of players or flex points ?


No, nothing is being considered in terms of pricing changes.

When ABLs were first announced you said that something would be done if agents started exploiting like this (please just read the OP and look at game stats)

what plans do you have to prevent this becoming commonplace?


Any issues you have with teams need to be directed to Support.

On this topic....


When will agents receive their custom "Guru of GLB" tag for their avatars as a result of purchasing over 2 million flex?

Also: Why does Bort hate me so much that he won't let MPHD win the WL?



Casual league was the recipient of a very major change this season with the new playbook options. Part of the reason for the introduction of casual league was the degree to which the intricacy of the "regualr" game had become so complex that some users felt it was over-whelming.

Are there plans for more "mission-creep" in the future of Casual leagues?




#1 - Done

#2 - he said fix ur builds (or buy another Hall of Fame package, whichever you prefer)

#3 - we'll add a few more small things (giving defenses the same capabilities with playbook options). We don't feel what we changed added too much complexity.

Chemistry question:

We have had it explained that if a team had 0 Chemistry it would be similar to a 10% penalty to all attributes, and it goes up from there. 10 Chem = 9% penalty, 20 Chem 8% penalty, etc.

Can you explain how it works when the chemistry is something like this:
Team Chemistry
Overall
77
Offense
79
Defense
100

Does this mean the defense has no penalty while the offense is -2.1% ? Or does the defense and offense get hit with the same 2.3% penalty? In other words, what relationship does overall chemistry have vs. Offensive Chemistry vs. Defensive chemistry?


Offense average = 78. Penalty -2.2%
Defense average = 89.5. Penalty -1.05% (not sure if it rounds to the nearest tenth or something)


Catch22 Edit - Trev's answer here is correct.

Does Clock Manager works for a TE, HB, FB as well. It just states as a receiver you get 2.5%. I think it would work since it does not say WR/TE/HB,FB specific.


Yes, it works for all players who are in the act of receiving a pass on the offensive side of the ball.

why does it seem that about 90% of the time, a def back has an offensive player covered, deflects the ball, and the receiver catches it anyway. In real life if it is deflected, it is almost never caught.


If you can show me a game where 90% of the time a ball is deflected and caught, I'll be more than happy to look into this.

with the AEQ changes in season 24, will both the prefix and suffix be convertable?

AEQ 1 +3 speed + deflect %
AEQ 2 +3 speed + MT %
AEQ 3 +3 speed + int %

Can i convert +3 speed + INT % to +3 agility + break block %?


No. Just the +% can be converted.

Is anything being considered as far as mass creating players or allowing us to reset players for the peewee leagues? On a related note, is anything in the works for mass equipment upgrades? I want to go back to owning a PW team with only my players on the roster but don't want to have to click, click, click, click, click, click like I did before.


Hate to do this Dub, but this is a suggestion and needs to be posted there.

FWIW, as someone who has many players, I like both ideas.

Will ALL AEQ be available for a refund when S24 kicks in, or just AEQ bought pre the announcements on AEQ recently.

Its hard to know to buy stuff and use it for the time being if we dont get the tokens back on it. Also If I get a break tackle piece with +2 agility on it, can it be changed to a catch ball piece with 2 speed on it instead, IF I have purchased that after the announcements too?


All AEQ that has a +% attached to it. No, you can not change agility to speed, only can swap the +%.

If Bort and Co. just added a major tactic to the Basic Ai and Casual sim, why wasn't an even MORE critical Filed Bug related to Basic Ai fixed first? http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=4411452


It's on Bort's to do list. He'll complete it when he has time.

Will League sorting ever be considered done throughout GLB on day 48 in addition to the day 41 sort? As it stands now, MOST promotion and demotions are done via winning records, league champs to promoting and losing records, owner requests to demoting.

If GLB would seriously take some time on day 47 to day 48 rollover and sort teams again, ONLY horizontally, based on strength of roster, then and only then would true Pro, Elite, Competitive teams be with one another. It is SOO very different when a 13-3 team promotes then was only able to recruit 25 players and 30 CPU's in an Elite League environment and will lose 200-0 everygame. In the same offseason maybe a 9-7 team from the same league who never moved up is full with 55 level 72's now and are stuck dominating the same Competiive League against a bunch of half rosters now.......It is a serious issue imo......Please.


5) Asking when we are going to add a feature to the game is not really a question. It's a question veiled as a suggestion. If you have a suggestion to make, please do so in the Suggestions forum. We will not answer these types of questions.
