Warrior General Games

idk why, but I have the strangest feeling after the 1 +3 seasons of vet this game will lose popularity from its current userbase...

i don't mean to be that guy, but I rly think we need some kinda world league type league, because although its cool having all these teams eventually meet for 4 seasons (thats considering everyone buys the +3 seasons boosts) ppl will grow tired of the repetitive gameplay.

I feel like a WL is needed, or some kinda system that puts the best dynasties (Which is basically what I see this game being about, networks or teams that can bring up/recruit the best joes to replace the current Vet joes.

with the inability to hold your league or create non rookie teams, What will happen in S9 when the current journey men are Vets along with 3 other generations... I think a Super League and a secondary super league (with basically the 12-24 best teams) would be awesome to keep the game competitive at the highest level, and for teams to try to get the most achievement out of their generation of players.
Ofc. increasing the chemistry penalty will be necessary so teams dont just recruit the best talent every season and have little to no penalty for it...

but yeah... What do you all think?

I've always liked the idea of WL. It gave teams an end goal to strive for.

But i do see what you're saying. leagues are getting condensed every season, teams are resetting, yet people are still keeping their joes alive. And with the career boost, the surplus of joes could be crazy.

However I'm not sure what they are going to do when teams like Zorp and the Bulldogs are the same age as DD and SF. Make a super league or keep them in the same leagues they're in.

This... You need to give teams an ultimate goal to strive for, an ultimate championship... tbh #1 ladder rank just doesn't do it.

tbh Corndog is doing pretty well shuffling up the sim every season, so every season has had almost a new meta almost..

S1 teams are the What do I think is going to work?
S2 teams are the pass heavy generation
S3 are the run heavy generation... I have a feeling s4 will follow a similar trend as s3.

But anyway... the model right now is rly cool... Leagues are how well your team can adapt to other teams over the course of 5 seasons, and ladder is where you see the combo of the way your league has shaped you, and the skill of your players and coaches against that of other teams in other leagues.

Run heavy in S4? I'm gonna make a Superstar QB and WR for S4......Maybe i'll wait until S5 if thats gonna happen. LOL

I was under the impression teams would not expire if you keep renewing them.

I mean, new blood keeps leveling up. Either some owners won't be able to GM themselves a competitive roster and will fold on their own, or there will be a surplus of level 25 characters all fighting for spots on teams. Career boosting becomes into play weather you have a guy that is good enough to hang for 3 more years or not. Can he get a job somewhere? Cool, boost him again.

Some level 25's will probably be out of a job as you will have 3-4 seasons worth of players all looking for work at the final level.

Freaking romo this wasnt a suggestion i know where the damn suggestions forum is

There needs to be a world league.

WL makes Ladder (as well as every league below it) irrelevant. No to this suggestion.

Isnt tht how it should be..

Arent first round playoff games irrelevent to the superbowl?

I'm on a team that doesn't care about ladder and would rather win league trophies. Even my farm team that was top 5 most of the season still cared about league more than ladder. Granted we were in such a weak league this season that we just ran the same AI the whole time, but still...

Doesn't being in a weak league give you all the reason to try in ladder?

we tried in ladder games to either keep us from getting blown out, or to actually beat a team for the trolling opportunities. other than that, ladder is still free scrims for us to test stuff for the most part.

Kind of sounds like a self inflicted problem.

That doesn't mean other people don't care about the ladder rankings. (which it is pretty obvious they do as that is all the forum talks about) WL just sucks all the fun out of everyone elses leagues.
