Returning to HD, need some info please! Topic

Decided to reserve Army in Phelan.

So I left Phelan before the new update came around, like right before it did.

So what all do I need to know about that update, I know they have tweaked it a lot...

Hmmm, recruit generation changed a LOT.  The top 10 players are better, the rest are worse, way worse.

Star rating changed.  WAY less players are starred.  A D prestige D1 team used to be able to get 1-star guys and an occasional 2 star.  Not anymore, stars start at like 150th overall recruit or something.

Engine wise, DEF matters more, especially if you play press.  Stamina matters more in general, and Durability is linked to injuries now.

I see.

Thanks for the info.

I wish I could have got my UCONN team back but I will just have to build my way back up to the elite schools I guess.

welcome back indians - hope you and all in your unit came back safe and fine

recruiting - agree with notes above - you have to scout more than before

rosters - depth matters more

fouls are up. the press is black death (unless you can recruit pretty specific players very well) Welcome home!

press is not doomed, but no longer just works with a bunch of track stars - need deep team, with quality players and high IQs to run press

just had surprising success from my OKLA team in tark - deep team, ran zone press combo with good IQ - I think we would have lost big if we had run pure press....
