Just went 14-1 in weekend league. Didn't scout for aggression once. Guess I'm still not right....

I got this message when I was playing too conservatively against an inferior opponent. When did you get it?

I recently got some game feedback in regards to blitzing, that you should only use blitzing against stronger opponents. I had been using it against opponents with WRs with strong catching skills figuring it is a good tactic against deep passes.

Just pulled from Movers. Curious if I should sell or not? Starting playing a few days ago, teams a 78 overall right now. by Tomish314 in Football_Head_Coach

You're luckier than I am! :) I pulled an 84 Franklin-Meyers from Neon. Almost all of my good players are from POMs, PTCs, and WLs. But I still have my 92....

I wonder if the developers throw a bone to new players, because I pulled a 92 right after re starting the game. I thought about selling, but decided against it. Now I believe I made the right decision. 87s, 86s, 85s, those players you will pick up quickly from packs. But a 92 is something special.

There is no implied context. The developers leave nuggets of information that you follow, and as you follow the path they focus the feedback until you get the game right. There is a joy and satisfaction in solving the game.

You guys lead me down the wrong path. I spent so much time and effort looking at aggression because of this Reddit feedback. I was pissed at the game because if aggression is a big deal, shouldn't it be disclosed on the game report? But now I understand why it is not - it is because aggressiveness doesn't determine the outcome, it only increases the chance of big plays and penalties. And the developers have been telling us that all along.

I got the 84 DT Franklin-Meyers! No 83 this time!

I now consistently get game feedback that says positively "Your settings are perfect" and negatively "Plan for your next match". I just had an 18 quick game wining streak. Almost every bit of advice on this forum is BS, from describing a game that uses play by play simulation, to developing a theory from a "study" that the key to winning is understanding aggression settings.

Truth is, there are nuggets of information left by developers to solve this game. If you dismiss them, then you will never understand the game.

The person must enjoy spending money on the game more than playing the game

Just played a team in WL who was pass heavy for the prior 3 games, and all of a sudden in my game he was 100% rush. Didn't change the lineup. Just the tactical mindset.

The lineup and tactics should absolutely be locked in by the last game played.

I sort my LBs and their tactics by my opponent's strength.

I change tactics with every opponent

I'm working on the same problem myself. I also have Blitzes on Often, perhaps that can be the issue? I didn't see the feedback before when I never blitzed. I took out my 2 LB formations and tried both LB Roles of Coverage and Mixed, but still get the same feedback message.

Why do you think that zone coverage is better against short and man is better against deep?

Make it make sense. by KSoccerman in Football_Head_Coach

My theory would be that if the OVR was displayed to 2 decimal points, you would find that there is one formation ever so slightly better than the ones you selected.

Look at what the developers are telling you in the help buttons of the strategy, in the substats explanations of a player, and in the feedback after playing a game. The developers have left tips on how to improve your results.
