Oh.

Good to know!

Nice...I like that it should get more accurate as the season goes on.

[London]

No kidding. That makes a lot of sense. The more you see a guy the better you should scout him.

So we're drafting with a blind-eye for talent

[London]

Not really, but yeah, kinda.

None of our scouts have had any time to look these guys over. But if you are using the site list (at least) and maybe your list from the game you'd be doing fine.

I think the fact that so many of us are pissed at guys being taken right in front of us probably shows us that we all have similar ratings/outlooks for most guys.

I think they are relatively accurate (as in the scouts "eye test" takes precendence as players haven't played any games). Just imagine it as all of them having gone to a camp together and been watched by scouts. They played some scrimmages, showed off in drills, etc. but like in real life, pre-draft performances can be deceiving.

As I've been saying for a week now, there being busts is a GOOD thing. How many true busts were there in GABCA? It was almost impossible to pick a bust because the ratings were TRUE TO LIFE, with no randomization pretty much. I *WANT* busts. They happen in real-life. They should happen in video games. Complaining about them is like complaining about there being death in Call of Duty. Silly.

This first season will be very interesting. Our knowledge from before is totally irrelevant in this new game.

Yeah there has been a ton of people wanting the same players around the same pick. I think we are doing a decent job and there will be some unknown studs and some busts I assume. At the very least we are all in this boat together so none of us have an edge.

So who is ready to trade me for Mitch Kupchak?

UPDATE:

What is the "league scout"? is that a different scout than each team's scout? Where are the league scout's ratings?

I'm essentially wondering where these ratings come from when an entire league is outputted (they are not the true ratings)

League scout is a below average scout...around 40ish in each skill. This is the same scout that you see data for when there are no human teams but scouting is on. Consider it to be the general perception of the player as opposed to your scout's opinion.

[Tel Aviv]

So piggybacking this thread.....

how do people scout with their personal team scout in the game.....I can only see my team and draft eligible players. Every other player on every other team is blank...or white/white....

? just figured after three seasons i should figure this out ?

You go to your roster then at the top switch the team... don't switch team at the Hot Seat (Home) page.
