Thanks, man, and welcome to TGT.

I'm a long way from "settling" on a slider set, but I'm making progress and having fun. :nod:

Just a quick note in case this hasn't been mentioned elsewhere. I confirmed with Haumiller that for '12, as in '11, game speed and speed threshold are always default for user vs. user OD games (just like custom AI is default).

First Downs: 12 / 15

Rush-yds-TD: 28-26-0 / 30-154-1
Comp-Att-TD: 15-29-1 / 18-27-3

Turnovers: 1 / 3
Intercepted: 1 / 3
PR Yards: 9 / 77
KR Yards: 84 / 61
Total Yards: 279 / 577
Punts-Avg: 8-47.4 / 4-43.0
Penalties-yds: 2-25 / 3-30
TOP: 14:52 / 21:08
Sacks (def): 2 / 7

Notes: FS's only TD came against the #2 defense on a 6-yard fade with :25 left to play. I think it was the first time I've ever seen the fade executed properly at the goal line in a video game, and it looked fantastic...The FS HBs combined for 67 yards on 18 carries, the reason their team rushing numbers look so bad is because of the sacks they took. I'm not sure I can ever reduce that number to my liking without a tweak from EA. CPU QBs hold the ball too long, most of my sacks are coverage sacks.

Sounds great Steeler. Can't wait to get my hands on this game and make my own tweeks.

I knew you'd be in favor of the passing numbers, but I actually meant that using ASU was for you, lol.

Special thanks to psuexv for creating a spreadsheet to help :sf: track my stats and get comprehensive game averages for my slider sets. :up:

Going to try to get a couple games in this afternoon that will be played after a few tweaks to the slider set.

Yeah I saw that too and I appreciate it. Thanks bud! It's tough being an ASU fan at the best of times. However with the new unis this year (which I don't like... bring back Sparky!) the team has received a lot more recognition. I have seen more ASU screenshots this year than all the years combined since 06.

Huh. I thought the speed wasn't reset to default for user games on '11. Guess I just learned something new. That does explain some of the results I saw on '11 though, lol.

8 min qtrs make a game close enough to under an an hour, thats long enough as it is

I've always been for playing 9 minute quarters but I also rarely, if ever, run no huddle.

I only run no huddle at the end of 2 QTR if I'm down by 2+ scores to try to get something going and get in field goal range at least or in the 4th QTR if I'm down and know the clock is working against me. Sometimes I'll call a hurry up though after a play to catch the defense off guard especially if it's a 2nd and 10 to 3rd and 1 situation. I'll get the 9 yards or so and then call a hurry up for the 3rd and short. A lot of the times you can catch them unprepared.

was in the same boat, and we did some test OD's for stuff like that and was pretty sure it stayed the same... guess it was a sort of "placebo effect"

Sounds like the kind of numbers I would put up using them! 77 pass att's is par for the course! :D

Great to see that. Must have been one hell of a frustrating game to play.

It was. I wanted to quit at the half, lol. It was nearly as bad as the 70-7 beating I took as UNT playing at OU 10 days, or so, ago.

Lol. Yeah, probably. :P

In the MAC to Big 10 OD, I committed to using Akron. Then, I found out they're the absolute worst team in the game. :smh: :D

I decided for my TB dynasty this year to use the rosters for the schools I'm replacing. Figured it'd be good for game balance that way and I wouldn't end up with a bunch of nearly identical teams since they are all cupcakes.

I did that before. I made a team from Alaska but since I was replacing Ball St., I used that roster. What I didn't realize until I started recruiting was that I inherited Ball St.'s pipelines. Since I was an Alaska school, I didn't Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, etc. as my pipelines so I switched the roster over to Idaho's. It worked out better geographically.

In an ideal situation, I found it's best to do both. Use the roster of the team you're replacing (for sake of balance) and have it be a geographical fit. Having pipelines that are outside your region is definitely a disadvantage now.

Wonder what happens if you use one of the generic rosters?

I think there were changes to the generic rosters this year. But from experience with NCAA '10 and '11 ... the generic rosters were actually just an actual team with different numbers (and maybe different appearances). But the ratings and hometown/state were from a team otherwise in the game. So not only were you likely to have a roster from a state not near you, but you also had no idea where it was going to be. At least when you choose Idaho or Ball State you have an idea of where your pipelines will be.

Hmmm, ok. I may need to adjust my rosters then. Thanks for the info.

Cant do that within TB I dont think. I guess u can once the team is downloaded.
07-10-2011, 07:43 PM
JeffHCross

You can't edit a player's hometown within Teambuilder, and, at least on NCAA '11, you couldn't after downloading it, because you were limited to making TB edits within Dynasty. With the ability to perform dynasty roster edits coming in the Day One Patch, that may be something that gets changed (I don't know the full scope of the patch yet).

Bingo... Ben H please say what we can and cannot edit. A lot of folks think EVERYTHING will be able to be editied... I will bet dollars to donuts that is not the case. Key feautres we must be able to edit: HEIGHT, WEIGHT, POSITION, RATING, DEPTH CHART, everything else is gravy.

Any update on your sliders?

I plan to get a few games in today and release what I have so far before midnight.

Of course, the coming patch and potential for a tuner set may throw things out of balance, but I'll just have to deal with that as it happens.
