I beg to differ. A team can still build around a specific tactic, but it could also cause the manager to think/buy players/prepare for a secondary offensive tactic. Let's say that Team A usually uses Motion, but knows that Team B adjusts its defense based on their opponent's offense. If Team A has a few players with nice secondaries, they can switch to, for example, PTB. I think it encourages tactical diversity and makes the manager think more. Sure, knowing that my opponent could guess right and beat me in a close game is a bit annoying, but it makes the game a lot more fun.

Let me get back to you on this, but I'm 99% sure it also affects potential caps.

Would that mean that a capped player (because of SB) could gain again some ups? Like 2-3 more until he reaches the same point like before the ajustement for jr and sb?

Yes, that would then be the case, indeed.

I also don't like the prediction of defense change. I really hope the BB's think about this more. For me it is like giving a weaker teams a slight boost in a game if they get it right. And better teams with better understanding of the game an even greater advantage at times.

I like being able to change the face features of the draftees. Probably one of the best things you can offer to supporters being able to customize stuff. I hope one day there will be an option to rename your draftee even for a fee. I think many would get a supporter package for a chance to do that.

I agree with you 100% on the team A adjusting to team B or vice versa ... But those adjustments are tactics adjustments and should stay within that realm. Why need a phantom boost?

Let me ask you this, wolph, since you have coaching experience. How do you adjust given you know what your opponent habits and tactics? My guess is that you will draw up different plan to gain an advantage for your team. Now your team will play better in the game ... Is it because of your game plan or is it because they know what the other team runs? I like to be believe that it mostly because of your game plan. To me this a tactic decision. Dont you agree?

Another thing that is not clear to me and I hope someone can clarify ... Is the boost a def boost only or both?

This is probably the best group of changes I've seen since I started playing the game. People may disagree on exactly how they're addressing each problem but at least they're focused on doing something about most of the bigger issues.

So we can look and see is it good for the game as a whole to reward people for not playing cookie cutters and autotactics? Yes, it is, so while it may inconvenience me, I'm encouraged that it's still a change for the better.


Its too early to tell if these are good changes. Expect a good 4-5 seasons for teams to start making adjustments that impact the game after they are introduced. So increasing SB, decreasing the cost of JR, these things will take many seasons to bear out.

While this new guess-your-opponents-tactic feature doesn't impact LI only it is geared to address the overuse of it. For that reason this is too soon. Changes have been made that havent been fleshed out by the community yet.

In regards to fixing the GE's problem with punishing well balanced teams in certain ways (ie, backcourt outside shooters in a LI offense), fix the GE itself. We already have to swallow the bizarre effort choice that was stolen from Hattrick, now we have to bother with this crap as well?
