How about just have two scroll downs for "intense training" so that each owner can have the choice of choosing two attributes or 1 attribute twice?

We already talked about that Joe, Bort said the intense training combos were set for a reason.

Oh, sorry for not going through all 23 pages of this monster....

lol ok don't blame you

So suggest some new exercises with combinations you would like to see.

I'd suggest just having two pull-downs, one for each attribute you wish to train.

We did them in certain combos for a reason.

Might I ask why, or would I be out of order?

Both realism, and to encourage the training of certain attributes.

Does it really make sense to train say...kicking and throwing at the same time?

Not on the surface, but it could. It really could if you were trying to build an interesting player. Why encorage homogeny? All in all though, it looks good.

Didn't read all of the pages, but to suggest another possible combo, how about jumping and catching (for WRs), they already have catching and carrying for HBs so there should be a WR equivalent. Also a strength + tackling combo would be nice.

This is too confusing.. and now have to read through 50+ pages to hopefully find answers on how training works... Stupid, stupid, idea !!!

Or just read bort's end of season post and get the exact explanation.

You keep saying this. perhaps a link is in order.

Please don't make me go through 24 pages to find you post.... post it again! You seem like you have this figured out and I am still at "What, new training what? "

Well I guess I could live with it, all I ask is that we have some kind of AI option to select where we can program it with our training instructions, just cause i don't want to have to deal with this new interface. The bottom line is it looks like a nuisance of a chore to have to keep checking on how many tokens I have or what not and can I train today or what not. Can we please just have an option to select so we don't have to deal with it if we choose not to?

nuisance for you, you own a team. probably welcome for 95% of the rest of GLB though who don't own teams.

+1. This sucks for me, but screw it, its just less time for me to read the boards so people can jump on me when I do for not seeing every single post ever written. I originally balked at the token (it does seem WAY to RPGish to me). However, there is a benefit, as the game stays fresh, and my agents will hopefully stay interested.

sorry you will have to go through all 24 pages. I think it is somewhere in the teens.

Bort, is there any way to figure out how much using training points raises the amount in your training bar for higher skills?

'Bout the same as it did before in fractional points. There is some randomness involved as well, along with the chance for a "big gain," so it's kinda "see how it goes" when you choose it.

What happens if you are training two skills, one a skill at like 15 and another a skill at like 45?

15 goes up more than the 45

It's gonna suck hardcore for thsoe who have 40+ players.

You can use the quick training editor to do all your guys at once, and it saves whatever you did last time.

What are the little black bars beneath your attribute stats?

Mouseover them.

explain to me the black bars. So lets say i do a 2point training in strength. What does the bar say and when? overnight, instantly when i select training? i dont get that bar part.

As soon as you click "train" it will fill up with some percentage of a green bar. When it gets to 100%, you get a +1 to that attribute, right then and there.

Think of it as along the same lines as spending your SP's.

So if a full bar = 1 stat point, is gaining 0.xx in a stat like...impossible now?

Level up partial points still get assigned directly to your stats.

Exactly the same.

Not enough points or cash to do a normal training

So it's safe to say that we bank training points, so if someone with 20 players weren't to update training for a day or two they wouldn't lose anything, they'd just bank their training points right? We've gone away from the "training happens nightly" model to one where you can train a bunch at once just like spending SP.

Will there be ways to earn extra training points?

Yes, and maybe

We're pretty much forced to train on intense because of the bonus tokens. But, now, we can't choose our intense training combo, meaning that, depending on what we're trying to train, the more effective training is Normal. But then we don't get the bonus token. Which means we have to make tough choices...

Naw, that couldn't be anything like it...

Here is a small question that doesnt look like it has been asked so far here. If I decide to spend the 10 tokens to gain a perma +1 to a piece of equipment, and then, for whatever reason, I decide that I want to move all my equipment to a different attribute, will my fancy +1 piece of equipment sell for a higher value or at least can I keep the piece of equipment with the perma +1, but sell off the other upgrades instead of having to sell the whole piece of equipment to start over with equipment changes.

I may not make sense. I dunno.

Where the +1 will go is up in the air. Noone knows if it gets added to current equipment or if new equipment is going to be in order.
