***Season Showdown***

[Weasel]

EDIT: Should have just read the thread

[Frankie7512]

this will be for the folks who want to leave things on all game like strip,big hit, big run, etc...... which is an issue.

This makes sense and I agree with "everyone" doing the showdown so it does show "if" someone is doing things like this all game.

[BigStimpin]

Some things can be pegged all game and will never show even with "Showdown" on. For instance I've never seen points tallied for big run or big/hold blocks.

I'm in enormous favor of this decision, I'm just saying.

[Ank]

If its such a big issue...Instead of saying moderation...just tell everyone your Season Showdown must be ON and all the strategy shit must be on conservitive.

This would stop all the guess work...of how much is too much...and moderation to me might mean something totally different to someone else.

[VeniVediV1ci]

the only aggressive thing I have in my settings is in the secondary.

I wonder if we see the opponent in aggressive everything then how do we counter that? I'm thinking we can't

[trendon]

Trendon, it's no fun when you see User Jump Snap every single play and no matter how hard you try you still can't get a team to go offsides and run the risk of getting false start penalties if you're the away team. Had this happen in a game, user is no longer part of the league, I could not get his guys to jump offsides and I got like 7 false start penalties.

penguin, I think this rule being instated has nothing to do with certain features being banned it's so that we can see if in fact people are using things in moderation.

I change my strats constantly. If you get too close to my goal line, everything goes to AGGRESSIVE. What do I care about a face mask penalty now? Vice-versa for long yardage.

One offense, one first downs where I am running, IMPACT BLOCK goes to AGGRESSIVE and maybe HOLD BLOCK.

Basically, I change my strategies every play or other play. That's how I see it should be used and I am not talking "NDL style" ... I am talking logically. Why would I want BIG RUN on when I need one goddamn yard?

In the meantime, I've had two complaints about how long it takes me to pick a play and snap the ball ... I am "moderating" my strategies, fools!!!

You can't win in this league for shit with you people sometimes.

True but I can't find anything to argue about with this

[Quest4Gold]

Still don't know how we can prove what their points are, but mine has been on from day 1,

After 4 seasons of online dynasty and 1 and 1/2 seasons of NDL, I have a grand total of 3 strategy points Man I am trying to get to my guy before the ball is snapped to do any of that L2 crap.

Well, there is no way to argue as there is no right or wrong. I have just grown quite sour with the:

"This is a fun league for adults!"
"HE USED GUESS PASS THREE TIMES IN A ROW!"

It doesn't rhyme. Is this a fun league where we can play how we want without turning it into a lobby game? (Running two plays from no huddle, blatant and unstoppable AI exploits/glitches, etc). Or is this NOT a fun league and we are here to win, win, win and, if you can't, it clearly was because the other guy is using shady tactics?

I don't get it. I am one of the most ornery, opinionated people here and I couldn't give a shit what you do.* You could bring some of the guns from Modern Warfare 2 and shoot at my players and I'd think it was fucking awesome!

I think it is because I am a mediocre NCAA player and I know that. I suspect some of you don't and there needs to be a standing reason why you lost. PLease excuse me if that is not the case.

* - Full disclosure, I hate the 19-for-24 for 221 yards, 157 of which came after you caught the 2 yard out pass. That annoys me a bit.

[brett11253]

I keep it simple. I never touch a thing.

[trendon]

Well, you guys can go ahead and close this thread since Trendon is the only one who uses strategies!

[Steamrollr22]

Like ive said ...I feel the strategies are neccessary evil(trendon)...But now you just can't hide your gameplay....True everyones Idea of moderation is different...but there is a difference between moderation and everyplay use..... And nothing rules wise has changed...hope everyone hear undestands that...U just have to turn on Season Showdown...

Bout fuc---- time btw management...

If you score a touchdown and your guy has broken a tackle to get there it will pop up.

Trendon no one is saying you can't use the strategies just no one wants to see that little window pop up every single play with the same thing over and over. It's not like we are playing lobby games either. Guys have to play with lesser teams against the better rated schools every week. I'm sure you wouldn't want to sit there and play every single game with a D+ school with user jump snap popping up every play and you're quarterback has been sacked 90 times in 12 games and the running back has 14 carries for 15 yards every game.

Now that I see what we are talking about, I'm with Trendon for the most part. Inside the 10 on defense why not play on aggressive? I do never switch the setting on my D-line but I guess some people are cause several of my opponents have been trying the fake snap stuff on me with it never working cause my DL is never on aggressive. Other than that though I have found these things to come back to bite my opponents more than help them, had a guy last season force like 4 fumbles on me, but racked up 100+ yards of facemask penalty yards because of using aggressive strip. I suppose I have found this to be pretty balanced and not an issue in my experience.

Gotcha. The only one I can see a big problem with is JUMP SNAP. To me, each and every strategy has a decent counter to it. JUMP SNAP does not not by a large stretch. It could've if calling a cadence didn't result in a false start 50% of the time.

And this brings me to my number one NCAA 11 wishlist that I've wanted forever. When calling a play, you should be able to indicate the snap count; on 2, 3, quick, etc. Try and snap the ball before the cadence completes and the results are predictable. Don't snap it in time and watch your whole offense start falsely.

[ajalves]

Look, as I have said already, quite a few times as a matter of fact, we are not asking you change a thing. Its just a tool

[Cnasty]

Its just a tool

Yes Trendon is.

See your talking moderation Pengy, Inside the 10 turning on aggressive should be viewed as fine, but flipping it on on Opening KO and leaving it on all game is for the fucking birds and people are doing that in this league ( played 2 games thus far this year where this has happened).

You know what just dawned on me. I got a hug from Corey, Josh, Feisty & Stan. You never gave me a goodbye hug. I am hurt.
