This really lacks the simplicity (like the current FBB) imo. I don't see it catching on. If it is anything like FBCB 2010, which yeah, I'm assuming it is, it just takes a while to adjust to the layout, after that its easy to navigate and do shit. |

Unless there's an app version of it, I won't buy it. I'm never around my PC.

of course, at 34.95 I didnt buy FBCB 2010, so thats a worry Lol good luck finding a league in which 1-2 commishes and 30 GMs drop $35. Sim leaguers are cheap, majority of us use an FBB crack (a game which costs $10 and is only required to be owned by the commish). |

Sim leaguers are cheap, majority of us use an FBB crack (a game which costs $10 and is only required to be owned by the commish). yes, I understand that, which is why if the price point is 35 bucks thats a tough sell...I do not believe you can run an FTP for this FBB, so obviously you cant set DC's, and owning the game is not much of an advantage to the league. at $20 I would think he would have luck, but buying it at 35, barring it having multiple licenses (so you can split the cost), would be rough for everybody... It is going to have the option to have foreign leagues, and it appears to be very customizable, can remove finances, coaches, scouting, all that, but the DC's will be more like the FBCB setup |

I will say, right now, I think Id rather pay 34.95 for FBCB 2010 if he did set that as a price point

Ya, feels similar to FBCB 2010. Might play-by-play sim a game if I can and see if the sim engine has been tweaked any

Dwight Howard shot 59.7% from the field over the course of the season, good
not so good is that he only scored 14.8 points a game
but thats far more indicative of the league file being shit,
assists seem to need to be raised, which is scary

This really lacks the simplicity (like the current FBB) imo. I don't see it catching on. Simple is better for this type of stuff. I doubt I ever wouldve used a new game. Just thought up more rules. Sent from my SPH-D710 using proboards |

definitely some issues with PG's shooting too well, PPS leaders should be made up of primarily non PG's, but I got 4 PG's in the top 6

Sent from my SPH-D710 using proboards the fact that you can cut out all the stuff he added, coaching, finances, scouting, is nice...the ratings system is more complicated, the DC setup as well, but it was a necessary change there, making it so you can set target minutes Legal positions is just the positions you allow the bench players to play so the game will sub them in there. Then the obvious changes to allowing Zones in the NBA meant that had to be implemented |

this league file is awful for sure though, average Inside rating for Centers is less than half that of PG's, that says something bad about it

stat nerds are gonna love it imo
All the advanced stats, can see stats by shot location (percentages, attempts etc)

Sent from my SPH-D710 using proboards Exactly. All I was hoping for was for the old FBB plus a few new things (expansion teams, advanced stats, a better sim engine, more realistic training camps). |

Just seems like quite a lot. |

really though, this looks solid. A step closer to OOTP, which is a step in the right direction.

I like it for the most part. Does feel a bit clunky in certain places, and I think they could certainly stand to simplify some things, but on the whole looks like an improvement.

I do question how easy it'll be for a commish to handle all the input stuff though. There's a decent bit more to do there, don't think there's really been any improvement on the ease of doing that type of thing.
