Where would you guys go with this player's build? He sucks.

http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=276230

TIA. :topcat:
Nothing but agility for the next several levels.
Yeah? I thought Strength would be the way to go.But he's my only DL, and the only player of mine who sucks...so I 'll take your advice happily. :lmao:
Well, you need enough str to avoid getting pancaked. 40 is plenty for that. To get sacks though, you need to be faster and more agile than o-linemen. Agility = acceleration, so that is key. Your goal to shoot for should be 60 agility, 40 speed, 40 strength.

You'll need more than 40 strength to avoid getting pancaked in the level 17-18 range... at least 50.

Disagree. I don't watch every single play, but I've never seen my DE get pancaked and he's playing against level 20 or so Olineman. His strength is 41.
 
This looks like a lot of fun. Starting from scratch, how long does it take to get the point where you are good enough that it's enjoyable?
Its fun from day 1 if you are on a team thats activeClick here to sign up :thumbup:
Do I need to get referrals like this to get a good team? I don't have any desire to do that part of it.
Nope. Referrals are completely optional. They can earn some free flex points, which can save you a little cash if you're so inclined.

That depends how many players you want to create. And on whether or not you want to "boost" them. Lots of people haven't spent a dime. A few have probably gone into the thousands.

I've spent $0 and have had a good time with the game so far
 
I took for granted what having a good owner means to this game. With a change in ownership we arent even getting game plans or anything and just everyone winging it. I think this team is going nowhere fast this year. I can take losing if its with a bunch of players that are active and trying to build but this team is like a ghost town. The current owner has been open to get rid of players that dont want to stay. Are there any FBG teams out there in need of a CB? Will be a lvl 15 CB after tonight. Still have 3 boosts left on the season. Let me know if you're interested and we can see what can be worked out.Physical Attributes Football Skills Strength: 18.85 Blocking: 8 Speed: 53.99 Tackling: 17.55 Agility: 38.05 Throwing: 7 Jumping: 21.3 Catching: 21.3 Stamina: 31.41 Carrying: 13.25 Vision: 30.73 Kicking: 8 Confidence: 14.69 Punting: 8

Can anyone give advice as to what I should concentrate on with my DE. He's just not doing as well as I would like.

http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=292126
My lev 16 DE is frustrating mehttp://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=28485
Confidence is pretty helpful for defensive players, esp. if the possibility of getting pancaked comes into play. You may also want to train up blocking just because you sunk 5 into Shed Block and that's one of the modifiers the SA checks when it triggers. I'm not 100% on how much vision a DE at your level needs though, might be something worth training up a little bit. Also that seems like an awful lot into SA for not having custom equip now that I think about it though. Then again my level 19 LB has nearly as much into one tree and it helps so... whatever works.

Has it been posted on the site anywhere that skills affect SAs and whether they succeed or is this just speculation? I was wondering whether LB confidence would affect the LB abilities to lower QB moral.

When you are going against an OL with 70 in strength, you better have more confidence than you do now.
 
The owner of my team just sold the team back to the CPU. Kind of a crappy situation. I don't want to go through the rebuilding process again.

anyone need a level 19 pocket passing QB?

Gator Rayd

My contract is up on day 30, but the new owner may be willing to release/trade. Haven't met him yet. I think we'll know tomorrow.

I'll bet if you open your stats that will help.

It only makes sense that it would. How can a player with low confidence scare the qb to lower moral? If you read the SAs carefully there are hints by the the way they are worded! Confidence is one of the biggest forgotten pieces of the puzzle for most players.
 
Have any FBG's reached Level 24 yet?
If I boosted, I could be there tomorrow. I'll probably hold off though.
Yeah I have one boost left and I'm, a little more than 1/2 way to LVL23.I know it's expensive. But does anyone have the official breakdown available?What is it? $50K per piece. Each piece gives you a +1?Anything extra for the custom equip?

the lvl 24 equip is 5x the price of the lvl 16. so they would be 62500 ea. for a total of 225k for all 4

I will be 9 points short after tonights training :wall: . Too bad I do not have enough money to upgrade anything yet at 60k each. I do not think there are any more custom equipment upgrades, just the +1 to the normal stuff.

Its been confirmed on the forums that its not 5x, but $50k a piece. So 200k.
 
Let the offers begin. I am a free agent tomorrow. See my post for a MONSTER FB!!! Would like to play on a FBG team!! My requirements

Since I am on an FBG team (Milwaukee Free For All) and we have opponents in our league on this board, I am not going to open my stats. If my FFA teammates would like to chime in, they may do so, but stats stay closed. For your enjoyment.

Need rock aprox 10 times a game. I am personally not a big believer in giving the FB carries. That is what you have RB's for.

Need 50 plays a game.

Why? I thought 40 was the max XP for game time.

Need you to buy my level 24 equipment.

I would not see a problem with that. Only $200K.

Must have minimum 1500 posts on your private board, I want an active team

Sounds reasonable.

I am not interested because you player does not fit our team so, if you will indulge me, a little feedback on this 'demands' post.

For me, as an owner the only thing I liked about it was seeing that you want to be a part of an active team. The other demands seem... well... demanding. I am not sure about other owners, so I can only speak for myself, but this post would make me think real long and hard sending an offer.

If I was you.... I would have posted basically my level and a link to my player saying that I was looking for an active team with a board around '1500 posts' and ask for posts to reply and send PM's. Then in the PM's start talking to the owners interested with a 'I would like a $200K signing bonus for my equipment upgrades and I would like to carry 10 times and get 50 plays etc' and then go from there.

You may... or may not have.... cost yourself some offers from some good teams by coming off so self-centered and cocky.

Take it or not. Just some feedback.

different theology i guess. I would suggest not having a FB on your team, just get a TE and sub him in for a FB. If you dont want a FB who runs the ball thats cool, but understand as the game evolves, the FB will see a grater roll.
