Distance Accuracy in HD Topic

I'm wondering if the distances in this game are virtually the same as real life. I used this radius tool (http://www.statsamerica.org/radius/big.aspx) to see if a private camp would be a good thing to use. Are the 500 miles it shows, the same as 500 miles in the game?

Yeah, they are pretty close to accurate.

Pretty accurate if you’re using air miles. If you’re using a road mileage GPS type tool, it won’t be as accurate.

That's actually a pretty good tool. If you're doing a private camp, which extends to 500 miles, you can also know which states to scout, within that 500 mile radius.

i just found a recruit that had the distance wrong. I told CS and they fixed it.

What do you mean by wrong? And wow, how would the thought of it being wrong cross your mind?!

"it's not 732 miles from Kalamazoo to Albuquerque. It's 748! Come on HD, get it together"

nice job finding wherever that was.

You guys are giving me to much credit. NYU is in Manhattan or New York, New York. The kid I was recruiting was at one of the catholic schools in the city and had an address of New York, New York. He was listed at 172 miles away....which is like Boston, or Washington DC or Canada.....

I assume they had a Catholic High School with the same name in a different town's address used. I had never seen a mistake like that before.
