is that a christmas joke??

drop in attendence............. ho ho ho!!


*offtopic*

Did you know already that Santa isn't allowed anymore to say 'ho ho ho' in Australia, because that means whore. Hehe.

THERE'LL be no ho, ho, ho this Christmas. Aspiring Santas have been told not to use the term "ho" because it could be seen as derogatory to women.

Thirty trainees at a Santa course in Adelaide last month, held by recruitment company Westaff, were urged to replace the traditional festive greeting with "ha, ha, ha".

The term "ho" is also American slang for a prostitute. "We were told it (ho) was a derogatory term for females and can upset people," said the Santa, who did not want to be identified publicly.

it actually quite makes me sad to keep reading that DT is not reality...

this is a game for Christs sake....

a game

a lot of people like strategic or fighting games. How real is it that you have to hit every oponent the same amount of times, or have to do the same amount of damage to get him killed, or that you have to get shot at least 3 or 5 times yourself before being killed,.... do you hear someone complain about it not being realistic?

As a matter of fact give me 1 game that is totally realistic...

we've thought about adding a team chemistry modifier that would be best for teams that have been together the longest.

what about something similar to the NT? if they drop or replace a player it effects enthusiasm...

ive got a dead cert NT player that aint in his NT as the manager is scared of the enthusiasm drop!

if this was similar then it would encourage organic growth and teams would evolve only when upgrading...

good point mouthlino,
unless the modifier calculates with all payers in the team, not just the line ups.

I see an other posible downside though.

This might encourage teams to stick to their players too long, thus keeping players that get a little old to be succesfully trained.

Wouldn't it be more appropriate in this instance to add a season-ticket-holder/ merchandising /attendance modifier? It would create more of an economical equilibrium between the teams who DT and those who don't, and add a smidgen of realism.

In reality, if a team bought and sold as many players as some teams here are, the fan base would be completely confused by a constantly changing roster, the jerseys for new players couldn't be made fast enough to sell before the player himself is sold, and supporters would have trouble deciding whether to attend a home game because they have no idea who will be playing in any given game.

Not that I would know if either method would have any programming advantages over the other; just throwing an idea out there so this thread can hurry up and die.

is no-one going to second this?? surely this is a way to prevent massive roster changes... then when you upgrade players it would take the player a week or so to fit in at the level the team was playing at before (which is similar if not obviously faster) in real life...


this would stop people hoarding cash and only buying ahead of playoffs and the more i think of it the more realistic it seems... if a player signs for a team with already 20 people on roster the average persons enthusiasm on the team is going to drop...

if buying 5 players in a week dropped enthusiasm from 7-5 then people (i know i would) would definitely think twice unless it was a genuine team improvement...

That's a great idea to build on, but I don't think that goup chemistry should only be about having the team that has played together for a very long time. If the same guys keep playing together season after season, then they will probably loose some edge after a while.
