FOF 8 is on the way guys.

[Guest]

I tried to break this game planning to make a super powered playbook, but the game penalizes you if you use a play too much, so I don't see any real exploits out there. You can throw to Dez Bryant 300 times in a season and have him put up retarded numbers, but the law of diminishing returns is in full effect. The stats are pretty much in step with FOF 7 other than that.

And yet you resist joining the GML with no gameplanning at all...

Yeah. I am SO lazy (and getting lazier).

Don't mind me. This seems good for the game and community at large.

What combine accuracy are we going to use?? Shall we go back to normal? Or are we going to keep the combines irrelevant??

No going back to unrealistic correlations of trying to game the game. Everyone is on equal playing fields relative to their scouting and can take combine correlation at their own risks.

As it should be.

So we keep the combines irrelevant then. No stats, no tape, no combines. Only information of our Scouts which we can't control their signings... I don't think is fair at all.

Wouldn't be better. To make the information available for all the managers in a Sticky post in the forum about the combines and correlations that we can all use the same way? And make this a bit less random?

Is scouting changed at all in 8?

BTW - Does anyone now how to get that 10% discount they offer? 10% is a lot to my poor, white trash ass. I don't have 7 on steam.

They aren't irrelevant.

Most of the top picks have matching great combines. They just aren't an automatic tell for who to grab later on. I picked up a CB in the middle of the draft lwho had pretty good combines but was likely passed over based on scouting (low M2M). He's decent enough and got a bump in EX2.

Combines matter. Just not as much as scouting, as it should be. No going back to peeling back the veil to make it easier to make good drafting decisions. No one gets their picks right most of the time in the real world. Why should we?

Gameplaning seems awesome. I like what I am reading so far. Can't wait to have this game in my hands.

What is great is to nail late round picks, no the obvious top ones. And that's when combines correlations are important. I don't like this way to do the things as we don't have enough information to enjoy the Draft process. Would you remove the Potential or the Stats from OOTP for the Prospects?? I don't think so, and is just what we are doing here.

My personal opinion on the combine accuracy is to watch what leagues like FOOL does to see how a mass group works the combines/bars to draft players and then make your decision.

Until you see guys like MalcPow draft at 50 accuracy, you're simply not gonna know if tells exist.

My guess is, focus on getting strong scouting, and you'll do just fine.

I'm dumb, man. I only learned how to draft somewhat acceptably in the last version because I talked to you guys in chat. haha

That scouting bar makes you instantly smarter. :)

50 is completely fine for me. There is a level of randomness, but 39 man... Is just not funny.

Maybe that's been my problem. My offensive coordinator is shit at scouting IIRC. Same guy the whole time in FOF7 I think.

[Sharkn20]

Is it any way to see in FOF7 the correlation height - weight, with the comparision against the league averages once the TC is finished? I am trying to find out and I canīt.

I would 100% get rid of potential in the BLB, ask around. Keep stats and turn off scouting.

Oh yea. I like it rough, baby.
