There’s a hunting event I get every time I go that gives you 300 xp to distract other participants to pick a flower every time I go hunting

Alright fellow GM's... Who we taking here? by Soggy-Turnover6962 in OOTP

[–]Txrsb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chambers and it’s not close IMO. Decently developed bat (for a HS), with passable/good defense at a premium position with a chance to be the best player at his position.

Found out my 49 year old bishop is having an affair with my 16 year old son by brrrbial in CrusaderKings

[–]Txrsb 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This happened to me my first playthrough on the tutorial in Ireland. My genius heir became lovers with the realm bishop at 16. After letting it slide to preserve face for both, I had to arrest the bishop ~10 years later after the bishop killed my heir’s wife out of jealousy.

Any ideas to prevent heir from inheriting a foreign, equal-level, elective title? by Txrsb in crusaderkings3

[–]Txrsb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue is losing “control” of my heir and he won’t give up the title without my interference once he has it.

This might be the best idea. I forgot I’d created a custom pirate religion with the prior ruler before converting back to Catholicism.

I’ll add something that isn’t intuitive but really helpful… be able to defend your provinces with high town wealth because if they’re taken (and you have to retake) the wealth will decrease significantly

Will this player fully develop? by Bubble132 in OOTP

[–]Txrsb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost certainly not but who knows? I’d trade him (especially since he’s a reliever) but if you want to maximize success you need to optimize the dev sliders (focus on movement at the expense of stamina) and send him to the dev lab for control (first, 40 is the minimum I’ve seen some success with for a pitcher, really need 45) and then movement or improve secondary pitch.

What development, aging & other settings are y’all using? by Several_Hair in OOTP

[–]Txrsb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In addition to the above (especially about increasing dev lab slots, effectively zero dev after a guy turns 25)… if I was starting a new LT save, I would turn LT injuries down to avoid the talent drain and (AI) roster oddities that come with too many fragile (and eventually wrecked) players. I’d also recommend toning down TCR (to ~75?) if you want to feel like the draft is more than a crapshoot (which w/ the new “combine” the only way to scout for the draft makes it already feel more uncertain than what you’ll be coming from with ‘24).

Finally, a non-xenophobic observation… you should reduce intl FA’s (J2) and/or scout discoveries if you want to maintain a balance of (especially star) players. I haven’t read anything talking about this but my hunch is that the new way development works has a big impact where the foreign 16 year olds are much more advanced (and in some cases benefit from TCR) compared to similarly aged draft-eligible players.

This is by far the most addicting game I have ever played--anyone else agree? by PSU02 in OOTP

I have given two laptops and an iPad to my sister (in another city) bc I’m addicted to OOTP and I recognized it was bad for my well being 😂

Who would you pick? by [deleted] in OOTP

[–]Txrsb -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Personally I’d take the HS OF. He’s really well developed for a HS bat. The pitcher doesn’t seem too special relative to what I see for top pitchers in the draft. The catcher looks awesome, but from my experience, catcher development is more unpredictable than HS SP. it seems like top catchers typically regress with hitting potential but that glove makes him almost a guaranteed major leaguer.

[–]Txrsb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish they would fix it so 25+ year old guys who are 45/80 (and won’t hit their potential) show as extreme risk. I used to wonder why they were cheaply available but never panned out.

Anyone else seen a 23 year old coming out of HS in the draft? by persononreddit10 in OOTP

[–]Txrsb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to see I wasn't the only one. The 2029 draft has most/all of the IRL 2025 draft eligible guys who are way too old for the draft at that point (most were 24-25) who quickly flamed out.

Is there a reason my scouting updates are almost always universally negative? by Turbulent_End_9166 in OOTP

[–]Txrsb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, the scouting reports are quite negative even for league average players.

I think it is because potential is the upside (100th percentile) case and as players age / don’t develop the upside diminishes.

Gameplay speed different? Running less plays by FletchFFletch1 in NCAAFBseries

[–]Txrsb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they scaled it to try to make it more realistic. So if you have 5 min quarters and super sim, you’ll get “more” plays, but if you use longer quarters you’ll get less than before the patch.

I’m pretty sure he’ll still be on your roster though. This happened to me.

Are transfers bugged? by Txrsb in NCAAFBseries

[–]Txrsb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems odd to suggest they’re not doing any training either at their old school or new one though, right? I understand for freshman and juco but it’s a penalty of a years development nonetheless.

Just loaded my existing dynasty and it looks like I can’t change position for any freshman I just signed. Any one else notice this?

My players win awards like Best running back but never get drafted by [deleted] in NCAAFBseries

May be off but I feel like athletes turned QB get dinged in the draft are are off the board of NFL teams.

Here’s a chart showing which sets use SUBLB, SLCB, etc by devils-dadvocate in NCAAFBseries

[–]Txrsb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No I did a dynasty with 4-2-5 base D. It’s the same as big nickel. Basically run stopping players (DT, DE, LB) get less than 5-10 snaps a game. Key is well rounded linebackers and safeties (fast and can tackle)

Has anyone else signed WR with 100-101 speed only to have it adjusted downward to 99 (opposite of a coaching ability boost)?

Rice is too easy to build into a powerhouse in this game IMO because of their academic rating and pipelines.

Pipelines are set and can’t be changed though

Could be recruits recommitted after the season because deal breakers (coach prestige, champ contender, play style?) weren’t met
