More WC comments from around the HBD universe:
The Good
Super excited about these updates. Very much warranted.
There will be a rough transition period for a lot of owners. Looking forward to it.
I love the changes, for what it's worth. Strategies are going to have to change drastically and there are a lot of unknowns -- should be fun.
I'm definitely intrigued. The projections were always something that bugged me with the game, since it was so simple to note players who should project well or not. I like changing this element to reflect the real game more accurately.
I like the upcoming changes, especially the International portion. The budget allocation for Ints are annoying and should level the playing field for bloated transfers.
Kind of curious how the revamped advanced scouting will work. Also I like international free agents not asking for $5MM right off the bat.
I'm glad to see significant updates of any kind after the long period without. A renewed commitment to this game from WIS will go a long way toward reinvigorating the some of the owners who have cut back lately.
Really excited about these updates. much needed.
Wow. Big change coming. That should make prospects a lot more interesting.
Interesting changes coming in the game update. I had been a 0 advanced scouting guy, so this should something new to learn.
Amen to the DITR changes
There's a lot coming in that next update on 5/26. Particularly like the changes for international prospects.
love the changes! one thing i don't love is not being able to see historic ratings.
I really like the changes. It probably won't move me off of 0 ADV, but it makes it more of a sacrifice. I'm a bigger fan of the other changes.
i like the changes as well...long overdue.
Damn, that's a lot of changes. Sounds like good changes for the most part though.
The changes will affect everybody differently. We'll have to "learn the game" all over again. Should be fun though, because there appears to be more realism...
A) I really like the changes. B) I wish they had happened *after* I finished this rebuild.
Wow...can't wait for next season to start.
Seeing how everyone plays it should be pretty entertaining
I like the sound of this update...negates some of the unintended loopholes in the current budgeting process.
Wow. That is a big change. I think it is necessary too - been hoping for something like that. Things will get interesting... gonna take a few seasons to get off 0 ADV.
Glad to see they are finally making a upgrade like that. I was consider stop playing, but Now I want to play with this new update coming. Should be more fun.
I hate to say it, but kudos to mike if he was behind some of this. I like the sound of the changes.
Oooooh!!! I love the updates! Well done, staff!
yea , they're fixing DITR.
I know this, I love the changes to the scouting.
I like the new updates...finally advanced scouting will matter.
It should also create more prudent bidding on FAs, too, as payrolls will have to come down.
short term is going to be rough. Long term I think it will improve things.
Wow, meaningful changes in the next update
I am looking forward to next years FA market already...
I still probably won't use [AS], but I like the changes.
I like them. Don't really like not being able to adjust the budgets my more than 4 mil for at least the first season they role these out.
Pretty impressed that they're making these changes, long time coming, but should make the game more interesting.
I like the updates, not sure leaving the 4 mill budget max movement in place in year one of the move is fair though.
On the changes...I'm at Advanced $2 heading (until now) for $0 so I'm hurt by the change but I'm happy with the change. New challenges like this equals more fun.
At this point I'm still leaning toward running an ADV of zero. I like these changes very much.
I like it, adds a challenge now....HBD was becoming formulaic and now it'll be fun learning what works now and what doesnt
The Bad
I have zero in advanced scouting and they still will only let us change it by 4 per season. Why don't they fix that 4 per season limit?
oh wow. I'm not sure I liked these changes....
I think they put that in as an F U to people that they thought were gaming the system.
And we can still only go up or down 4 mil at a time. So they make these changes and for owners who have 0 in AS it will take them 4 seasons to even get it up to 15. Tell me how that is right?
Hiding past season ratings is just absurd.
They should have just eliminated advanced scouting entirely.
yeah let's all waste 60m on scouting. Great update, WIS.
I wish they would give you a one-time adjustment to move the adv budget up. They are the ones who made advanced budgets pretty much worthless and people took advantage of it. No reason to punish those who were playing the hand they were given.
Well, wis just flat out changed the rules. I'm highly considering getting out. (That's not a definitive decision, just preliminary thought)
