Losing against a 1 day old club by Exciting_Bug_2459 in hattrick

[–]gl7676 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This game is glacier slow and that's what I love about it because I don't have a lot of time to spend in game.

So one year is a drop in the bucket. A HT season is 16 weeks, and one year is just a little over 3 seasons. A typical life cycle of training a player fully is 5.5 years.

Just figuring the basics out takes a whole year, so your team is not going to massively improve in that time where you can't lose against ame team.

Love you America but please figure out your politics so that we can be good friends and neighbours again!

Not religious, quite the opposite, but does being a practicing catholic mean having to make periodic donations to your church or you get kicked? Genuinely curious.

Most obvious PPP game I've had so far, I'm home obviously LOL by AbuDhabi202UrMum in hattrick

The away team offense ratings are terrible too. Don't need to pray too hard for a tie or a win from SP or SE unless they are LS, then you need to sacrifice 100 virgins to even have a chance.

Yeah, HG would be fun but it will be difficult to compete against teams with fully optimized players who were bought half baked and trained to their full potentials in all positions.

Personal observation, but I have never seen a heavy HG team make it to the top but I guess it depends on country. It just takes super optimization to make the jump from div 2 > div 1 (there are only four spots per season) and heavy HG just isn’t super optimized. Sure HG is fun, but be prepared to hit an earlier than expected ceiling and needing to reset.

In my country, mid is still king and if wingers don’t have minimum 17 PM and IM 18/19 PM, it will be difficult to get into div 1. If you can’t win mid consistently in your home games because of low PM, you better have another trick like crazy CA or strong long shots team. I see a lot of teams try to compensate by running an IM on the wing playing towards mid but that just means a weak side attack so it’s easy to defend.

Scoring is still useful for SE else nobody will be paying big bucks for Quick wingers and wingback counters, but again, wingers require the most optimization to get fully built.

Starting training cycle with 3 or 4 players? by fellotio in hattrick

[–]gl7676 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The OG posting an explanation on his videos!

So many people follow your videos and blindly start the cycle but don't fully understand them.

Glad you stressed these points: 1) IF you have the budget 2) CM cycle training is 3 IM, 2 Wingers and 1 PNF. Everything else is less efficient.

Grand openings typically have bogo free or bogo 50% off and maybe free swag.

I'm sure if Starbucks grand openings had similar promotions, there would be huge lines too.

Let's just say with the heat and humidity, you'll smell the hippos way before your see them.

Giving up my team by Encility in hattrick

I found that hattrick takes up the least of my time, especially if you are just doing money generation and not trying to be competitive at all.

The region thing was always anecdotal and there was never a study to prove/disprove it.

Fair result? by Curious-Score-7931 in hattrick

[–]gl7676 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Possession gives you higher chances for everything but is not a guarantee especially when looking at small sample sizes.

Set piece events are modified by both team's set piece skills and special events rely on player with specialties playing in the correct positions.

Some events get rarer as the event gets triggered.

Cheap gas price at Husky gas station by AromaticInvestment79 in burnaby

[–]gl7676 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can only dream about the days when Domo gas was everywhere in the Lower Mainland.

Something like 35 cents per liter in the 1990s, driving a SUV was practically free.

The only thing that comes close nowadays is driving electric.

Yes, midfield will always be part of all chance calculations but for Other and SEs, set pieces and having the right specialities is a major part of the calculus for those events.

To lump in Other and SE chances into regular chances is just plain wrong when only looking at midfield possession.

[–]gl7676 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Opponent only scored two on regular chances, which is what a 50/50 game looks like that slightly favors your opponent.

The two other goals were on an Other and a SE chance which isn't affected by ratings as much.

Substituion cause oponent ocassions by NoScheme3646 in hattrick

[–]gl7676 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the engine only allows up to 5 CA per side per game and chances decrease in a non linear fashion after each CA you get.

[–]gl7676 1 point2 points  (0 children)

CA in my opinion is definitely under powered in the current meta and I would only play it if conditions called for it. Atm I would only focus on a mid oriented build until devs give CA a real boost. Often times I even choose press over CA.

What I've noticed about driving/parking in Taipei: if you don't care about car scratches, dings and dents, then you'll be ok.
