Any way we can create our own Offensive/Defensive plays? In the future?

right now, we can specify the #1 WR on a pass play- that's a great feature and was a big step up

allowing us to specify the order on all 5 would be awesome

Giving us a utility to select routes from a boiler-plate list and then save the play to our playbook - that would be incredible.

Football Mogul does it that way, and it's a lot of fun. But I suspect this game isn't built that way.

Will likely never be a create your own play ability. Too easy to beat defense.

Exploit central

Just like when it was introduced in glb classic

I would like a defensive play creator. Just allow us to use one or two created plays per playbook. This game is pretty dead so on one hand why not at this point? On the other why would they put any effort into it at this point?

I miss being able to have a zone DT to drop into coverage.

I don't think they'd have enough testers right now to try and implement anything like this though, so it could only be a massive exploit fest.

Dropping DL back into a zone is an exploit?

I played GLB1 for a long time and did not see any exploits with the DPC what so ever.

Were you not paying attention? People spent years finding exact positions and assignments to make blockers ignore them for a free sack. I'm actually pretty sure dropping defensive line into coverage was one of the things that needed to be fixed at one point because of exploits, though I can't remember the specifics at this point.

I mean, it was so common, "exploit blitz" is even used in the patch notes in 2012, years after the DPC was added.

Yes but that was fixed a very long time ago when you added the preset positioning.

A DPC in GLB2 would have to have a lot of restrictions. Mostly preset configurations on where the line, LB's, safeties, and corners line up for each formation. Gotta remember that the charm of this game was supposed to be less work. The DPC in GLB1 was way too time consuming.

DPC was actually something I liked to spend time on. It’s not like I had to make plays very often. I had my set and rarely had to deviate from them. If a team called total spam I would draw up a special surprise for them. It was the tagging that was beyond brutal.
