They add to the game play in a way that i'm pretty happy when I see my opponent's keyplayer is injured when I've got to play him.

Honestly?

I would much rather play teams at full strength and have a meaningful match than play a team devastated by injuries. Any victory over that team is less fulfilling and more attributable to luck than skillful managing.

Little bit off topic but its funny to hear how you want a fulfilling and meaningful match considering the volume of mutual TIEs that get arranged in the NBBA! If you want to play with more spirit and full strength v full strength why does everyone get so worried and try to make pacts?

then you cant disagree with the posts about factoring injuries into strategy then...

but i do agree that the fun factor is reduced when this happens...

I agree with WFU, while injuries might be realistic, they make the game less fun (and this from someone who has lucked out on the injury front).

TIE isnt realistic, but that's in the game.

well we are all in agreeance that an overhaul of the enthusiasm system would be a welcome change...

but the point is both realistic and non-realistic features still have to be taken into account from a strategy perspective...

what the! why are we talking about injuries and playoff when thi topic is about draft and potential.

someone hear mention " true potential" how can you know?

since its a soft cap but how do you see this one pushing through.

Each 16-team league has its own draft of 48 players. Even teams full of bots draft 3 players.

When a new owner takes over a club, he is given credit for some scouting before he took over (I'm not sure how much, perhaps 1 or 2/week).

The model for the draft is that you are scouting throughout the season. But BB was afraid that teams would share information about players. So it's more like that you are scouting throughout the season, but you were too busy running your team, and just stuck the scouting reports in a filing cabinet.

Now that the draft is coming up, you pull all the reports out and start ranking the players. If you did more scouting, you will know about more about more players. You will still know nothing about some players.

I started playing with 3 games left in the regular season. I still hadn't figured out how to set the number of players scouted before the scouting list was displayed. I did pretty good in the draft. As a new team, you should get a player or two who is 18 or 19 and as skilled as the players on your initial team.

If you change your scouting effort now, it will be applied to next season's draft.

It is confusing.

The team I will play in the relegation playoffs lost its start player to a 2 week injury in the game today (after all my posts in this thread). In spite of this good fortune for my team, I feel bad for the owner (tough break LCD) and reiterate that this lessens the fun factor for all involved.

just for example:

if he has lvl 10 doctor he got 2 weeks
in this way if he would have just lvl 1 doctor he would got maybe 5week

so I think there is everything alright...

start post this to INJURIES thread, cause all other off-topic posts will be deleted.

Will the draft list come today ? :P
