Running video games (and consoles) thread

Go to team management and it's there under edit rosters or some shit. Just download mine, no worries.

 

Bought the game. Will check out teams tonight.

My GT is xcrunner4623.

 

In 13 — I haven't gotten 14 yet — they gave you 20 preseason hours of scouting. I liked to grab 20 players at need positions and on the line and give them the full hour. If they're looking like a bomb, you cut them off your list. By the end, you're probably at around 10-13 guys worth looking at. It's easier to focus on those guys, especially if you're in a rebuilding/building project.

If you're going to play the first couple of years, I definitely suggest recruiting OL and DL — win the trenches — then put athletes at your outer positions. Just because they aren't good at where the game thinks they should go doesn't mean they aren't good players. I've had a few ATH who were supposed to be CBs who wound up being better WRs or RBs and vice-versa.

With a QB, I usually like scouting the stronger-arm types. The accuracy usually develops quicker than the arm strength, and if you're not a good team right away anyways, it's easy to just plug him in and let him develop.

 

Add Cincinnati to my maybe pile. Played with ECU last night, liked them, futzed around with Arizona State and liked them but didn't like playing in the Pac 12 when I'm this rusty, and will try out West By God and Cincy tonight.

 

I think we should iron out some more rules for this dynasty. Make games realistic and all.

 

Come to the MAC. The water's warm!

 

What did you have in mind? Put it out there for discussion.


I was going to start sending out invites tonight, but due to having to be up insanely early in the morning, it will be put off until Tuesday evening.

 

I'm considering Toledo and possibly Northern Illinois. But I'm doing an offline dynasty in the MAC, so I may want a variation.

 

Haven't played Toledo. Was messing around with Ohio and played vs. N. Ill. Norther Illinois' QB seems like he'd be fun to play with.

 

I would love to get in on this and play with Buffalo or Syracuse but I just don't have the $65 for it right now. Maybe in the future. Enjoy!!!

 

Maybe a scoring limit or something. If you're up by 55, just run the ball or something along those lines. It just gets ridiculous if you win 72-0 against the No. 1 team in the nation or something.

 

I don't remember that being as much of an issue in the last dynasty. I know we were putting up basketball scores against the CPU in 09. We broke 100 three times on, what, six-minute quarters?
