For the record I dont think that this should be changed. It is a strategy just like any other. However, if they were to try and stop 0 adv scouting how would they do it? I cant think of anything that could really stop the strategy.

Why, is there talk about it?

There has been some stop and admin confirmed to me they may address it.

In exact words

"We've had other users bring this to our attention. We will look into it for a future modification. Thanks."

I think its a complete fair and valid strategy and I considered using it but I am scared of a backlash by a chance but I cant think of that they would really do unless they went completely out of context.

Soon they'll want minimum HS and College scouting budgets.

They could just ste our budgets for us? That would make it more realistic that we actually have owners and the owners decided what to do.

Then they can draft for us and set our lineups.

Simple.  The amount of IFA/HS/College budget determines how many players you see, ADV determines the accuracy of their projected ratings.


He says as he punches himself in the nuts.

The way to "stop" $0 Advance Scouting is to make it truely advance scouting - ie your "scouts" provide information to your team about how other players and teams actually play.  Your pitchers "know" where to throw the ball and your hitters "know" how the other teams pitchers tend to pitch.  If it was truely advance scouting I would put money into it, prob near the max.  As it is it is next to worthless (unless you do a lot of trading of young prospects) so I budget what it is worth $0

I think its 100% bfine how it is..

All over Mike's nuts. Lol.

If they make it so that Adv determines projections and the different scouting departments determine the amount of players I think I would just drop them all to 0 and go buy whatever we need.

You're all over his nuts?  gross....

how about making development a little less predictable?

Then it's just random. You can't have a game that all it's parts are random.
