We could see a lot of pops initially in different skills per player. But I really think it will be the rarest of players who cross-train pops in the same skill more than once. The thing that I like about it and find interesting is that if you have a rotating training regimen you could very easily see speeds a bit faster, as a skill could get a primary, secondary, and tertiary pop in consecutive weeks. I like this change because I actually prefer multi-skilled players and lower salaries. And if in eight seasons my cross-trained team can play multiple positions with low salaries, it will perhaps allow me to splurge on the high salary superstud.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

This topic is useless.

We can't see the sublevels.
All the players in the game have different sublevels.
It means all of you will notice and post here all the possible pops in every kind of training.

To make this kind of research more useful you should count number of trainings and number of pops in particular skill.

FT pops every two weeks so it is .5 for everyone. 10% would be .05.
I don't know about stamina, but I guess it's about the same.


Wasn't there a 31yo popped in something other than FT when training FT... he would've have to been .9999 sublevel to have gotten a pop... unless I have mis-read a post or he has mis-communicated his skill-ups.

The disappointment that we envisaged upon the announcement has been realised... although the cases are isolated it proves that uncorrelated skill-ups will now occur.

I mean if for example OD trains only JR and SB as "tertiary pops" or is the 10% distribution random.

Personally, I think that it will be old guys training FT and STAM who see the most random pops because they might have received just a few minutes of training once in a while for many years, developing sublevels that never popped.

I love this change because I don't worry about hitting potential caps, love multi-skilled players (in BB and in real life), train 28 year olds, and never make plans! It's perfect for me!

I trained pressure for PG and all I got were pops in OD. I was led to believe that my guards would receive expensive pops in SB and RB, which was the only reason I chose to train pressure.

Ugh, this new cross training sucks.

How can you say it sucks because your PGs didn't pop in cross-training after ONE training? You are sure demanding, aren't you?
