I've added the following amendment/addition to the OP:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Suggestion: I'd like to see a Quick Equipment Editor page developed, similar to the current 'Quick Tactics' page http://goallineblitz.com/game/quick_tactics.pl

Page Layout:
- Either have all players listed on one page or split them up via tabs (Offense/Defense/Special Teams).
- 1st Column "Player Name" | 2nd Column "Head" | 3rd Column "Head - Auto Upgrade" | 4th Column "Body" | 5th Column "Body - Auto Upgrade" | 6th Column "Hands" | 7th Column "Hands Auto-Upgrade| 8th Column "Feet" | 9th Column "Feet - Auto Upgrade" | 10th Column "Custom" |
- Column's 2, 4, 6, & 8 would have a Drop Down Menu with each of the attribute options (Speed, Agility, etc etc) which is selected first. Then next to that would be a + Button, - Button, and a Reset Icon (the little swirl arrow) the same as on the current equipment upgrade page.
- Column's 3, 5, 7, & 9 (Auto-Upgrade columns) would also have the Drop Down Menu to select a desired attribute, the + Button, - Button.

How It Works
Standard Upgrades:
Basically you would select an attribute you wish to upgrade for each individual piece (Head, Body, Hands, Feet) for each player (line) you would then use the + Button to add each upgrade. The number of upgrades allowable is based on your players level, so the player is Level 24 you would be able to add upto a +4 for that equipment piece. Also if the equipment piece in question is an AEQ piece than you would only be able to do as many upgrades as the BT's that player had allows. To finalize you would click the Update Button at the bottom right of the page.

Auto-Upgrades
(assumes this suggestion gets up = Auto Equipment Upgrades: http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=4627300&page=1 )
You would also have the option to select/preset future equipment upgrades for each piece through the Auto-Upgrade columns (columns 3, 5, 7, 9), these columns would allow you to select up to a maximum of +10 (+13 if the Piece was an AEQ piece, with the +3 Enhancement being completed as soon as 40 BT's were available) regardless of how many upgrades are currently available or BT's you have, but they would not be completed/actioned until you hit each required level (lvl8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72) and had the necessary BT's (if AEQ).

For example, say you currently had a standard piece of equipment that was +3 Speed (on a level 16 player) and you wanted all future upgrades to go to Speed you would select Speed, +7. However say you wanted to go with a +5 Speed +5 Agility piece, based on the same player above (a level 16 with a +3 already to speed), you would select +2 to Speed. The auto-upgrade function would then finish, and you would need to select Agility and +5 on the auto-upgrade column again for that piece.

*If a piece is sold or unequipped (i.e. a different Head piece is equipped) then any auto-upgrade option for that Body Part slot is defaulted to blank (so as not to upgrade the wrong piece with the wrong attributes).
** each time an upgrade was done on an individual player/piece the Auto-Upgrade amount would be reduced to the remaining amount that was needed (so say you did the first upgrade for the example above, the amount would then reduce to +6 to Speed (for the first part of the above example), then next upgrade would see the amount move to +5 and so on, until it hits 0.

Limitations/Problems
- Only one Attribute will be able to be upgraded at a time per piece of equipment i.e. you can select +5 to Speed and +5 Agility for a Head piece for the same player in one go, you would have to first select the Speed attribute and then click the + Button five times and hit the Update button (bottom right) then repeat the process for Agility.
- Custom Equipment: Not really sure how the upgrade functionality will work with this as flex points will be involved (as such a prompt checking if you wish to proceed will be required), also you would need to have the option to select the addition of a custom tree (level 8 upgrade). So I'd leave how that all functions to the GLB dev's to work out.

You would think there are enough votes already to start attempting to implement this.

It's more about when they (Bort) get time... right now they are working on the new formations for next season, so it'd be 2+ seasons before they'll try to tackle this (if Bort chooses implement it).

If you don't do another thing this offseason do this!


I would rather have this than new plays/formations. Let's fix the shit we have before adding more.
