No I am not complaining to complain. I for one am happy you guys are putting time into trying to make the sim better.

In your OP it says "PQ lowered" there is nothing there about on longer passes only. If you are reducing Spins and Fakes some as stated in the OP then its going to affect the HBs a lot. If WRs are reactions are lowered then that too is another nerf.

As an OC its a little frustrating seeing stuff like that but at the same time its nice seeing you address the underpowered O-Line.


-- for long passes the following:
throw variance increased
WR's chance to react lower
lower pass quality


gotcha...it was jumbled up in there

carry on

This is rich coming from the guy that wrote "This makes me wonder if Bort has ever played real football." .

I dont see that as constructive at all just trolling too .

Hm...upping the importance of carrying, Power Thru, Cover Up with Spin not firing as often? Plus the changes to tackling. I wonder if we're about to see the Season of the Power Back.

Add in the VAs to increase the value of strength and the likelihood of pancakes, and we could see the inside run game be much more important next season.

Its about freakin time the inside running game gets some love. Some of the defenses that are making for good all around run and pass defenses were just ridiculous.

Actually its not Spin not firing as often, more along the lines of Spin not firing twice instantly.

You'd think he'd get too dizzy and start running towards his own end zone.

New OL VA's:
Over Power = This blocker over powers the defender he is matched up against. For each level of Over Power, strength has 1% more of an effect on hold block rolls on rushing plays. REQ: Run Blocker Archetype
Max Protect = This blocker knows how to help protect the QB. For each level of Max Protect, agility and blocking each have .5% more of an effect on hold block rolls on passing plays. REQ: Pass Blocker Archetype


How will these be handled in regards to non-archetype OLinemen (yes I still have some) .. will they get to use both or neither?

I suspect our old prearchetype centers are the reason for those requirements, tbh.

Great stuff. Thanks Bort and Carch22.

I have lots of questions but most seem to be answered here already. I just wonder if I understand the part about "---Blocking/Tackling reaction may require vision check now".

In simple terms. Does that mean that more vision on tacklers and blockers will be a good thing and less vision will be a bad thing?

The OP is an excellent, well-written post detailing the proposed changes and the rationale behind them.

Can something similar please be written detailing the new changes to the Casual AI system? If it has already been done somewhere by Catch or Bort, a link to the post would be great.

I assume O-Linemen will get a full VA reset?
