If this has been previously covered my bad, but has anyone been able to gauge how likely as a OD/DC you are to get an offer from your alma mater if you are successful? Is it a noticeable difference?
I guess what I'm asking is, will your alma mater go a little out of their way to offer you as compared to other schools?
The one issue a lot of OD's are looking at is whether the carousel logic for getting offers is reasonable, or if it's too easy to to climb the ranks and so a house rule might be needed. For example, if a year 1 coach starts at a 3 star team and immediately takes that team to the NC, how likely is it that he will he get a HC or OC/DC offer from a 5 star team for year 2?
I heard the Alma Mater thing is the biggest influence schools will take into consideration among the other things that go into it like playbook style you run but still it comes down to your coach's prestige. Basically it's good to put the school you want to end up at eventually as your Alma Mater but that alone doesn't guarantee you they will hire you, but it may be the deciding factor between you and another candidate that are neck and neck.Quote:

Also the school prestige may change so it always goes by what the school was rated when you got there. And obviously no restrictions for taking a lesser job and moving down.Quote:

A technical question:
In '11, if your team's prestige level increased based on what you accomplished during the season, it would be immediately reflected once the offseason started. So, for example, when you started offseason recruiting, your team would show as (prestige during the season plus one). Does the coaching carousel step fall under the offseason in the same way, so that changes in team prestige up or down would be reflected at the time schools are filling positions? Ex: Florida is a 6 star school in year one, but say for whatever reason they have a horrible season, fire their coach, and would drop to 5 stars for year 2. If you received an offer from Florida after season 1, would it show Florida as a 6 star school or 5 star school? Hope I'm not being confusing.
Still working through some sims to get a better feel for things. There are a few things I'm not confident in but want to discuss those with the devs. That said, I'll answer what I am confident in.Quote:

2) Can't really compare since there isn't a way to sort by year.
3) RBs, WRs, etc. have appropriate ACC & AGI. RBs have potential to have both good ACC & AGI whereas WRs have potential for good ACC but less likely for good AGI. We made sure this was one of the notes we gave the devs at a community event dedicated to Dynasty. It seems considerably better.
4) Not certain on this either way... there are some speed guys with AGI & ACC but not sure if you'll have guys like Robinson early in their career or not.
5) Didn't really look at this one yet
6) I'm still looking at this one... it's a bit harder with Coaching Carousel since their philosophies can change every season.
I'm still doing some sims and plan to update some stuff once I get to 2021 (ten complete seasons). I have some notes that I'll pass along to the devs.
If I understand what you're asking, Coaching Carousel is the first step of the offseason and takes place after Bowl Games and the season is finalized.Quote:

Thanks, a "one star up" rule will be easy to use then. It would seem like such a rule wouldn't even be needed, because a user coach's prestige grade would need at least a couple seasons of improvement to attract a 5 or 6 star HC job, at least I would think.Quote:

No, you can't customize your conference schedule. However, by removing Temple, your schedule will likely be shuffled a bit since it's going from 13 to 12 teams. As well, obviously you can remove Temple from your schedule since they are no longer in conference.Quote:

First of all, thanks to all of you guys for the great vids/pics/info. I used to rely on Maddengaming then OS for my pre release fix but this year I got directed over here and you guys have had by far the best pre release coverage that I can ever remember.
On to my question, while simulating can you maybe give us an idea of how much overall movement there is between coaching positions? If you generated coach names that might be a chore but if you left them at ASU OC/ASU HC etc. it shouldn't be too bad.
You think my last name is in there? Miller :PQuote:

There's a homemade break-balls method of "customizing" conference schedules that I used as commish with '11, and it's something you might try for '12. Here's how (and guys with the retail version of '12, correct me if this no longer works): you do "internal swaps" of conference teams. For example, if in year one Florida is scheduled to play Tennessee in Week 3, and Georgia in Week 8, if you swap Tennessee with Georgia when doing custom conferences, each team takes over the other's conference schedule and Florida would play Georgia in Week 3 and play Tennessee in Week 8. You wouldn't think it would work, since swapping teams in the same division shouldn't have an effect, but that's the way the custom conference logic worked in '11. Assuming this kind of "conference schedule swapping" still works in '12, the extra pain in the balls is how you would continue to do this for year 2 and beyond (since now you can customize conferences every year). What you would need to do is check another OD or sim ahead in a test OD to know in advance what the conference schedules are for year 2, and then do internal custom conference swaps accordingly before you get to custom schedules. BUT, you have to remember if you swapped a team once before...like, in my example, if I swapped Tennessee and Georgia before year 1, then before season 2 I would have to remember that Tennessee would be playing with GEORGIA's year 2 conference schedule, and so on. It sucked but it allowed me to manipulate conference schedules when starting my OD in '11.Quote:

Yeah it takes more work to explain than actually do, lol. But it was a handy way of making sure that users in the same conference were on each other's conference schedules, in conferences that don't use a round robin schedule (SEC, Big 12, etc.).Quote:

So basically what I am asking is do you see a huge drop off in transfers after the second season and so on and so fourth? Hopefully that made sense LOL.Quote:

No, conference prestige is static. The SEC will be an A no matter who's in it.Quote:

This may affect some people's custom conference ideas where they plan on really moving a lot of teams around. Even some realistic team movements, such as creating the rumored PAC 16 (where Texas, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, and Oklahoma State leave the Big 12 for the PAC 12) would really effect the prestige of the Big 12 and PAC 12.Quote:
