I think they should give each team X amount of roster moves that can be made in the offseason (and only in the offseason) without taking a chem hit. Keep X low, like 2-3

Offseason moves will affect chemistry, but we have some updates to it that we'll clue you in on a little later (once we're sure of the numbers) that won't make it hurt quite as bad this next season.

Thanks Bort, that should help clarify some things. Even though I may not agree totally, as long as you can curb the effect a little bit from this season then I feel it's worth a shot

Just an idea....since teams have been affected by the old way of chemistry rules and now its changing to a more conservative penalty on chem...shouldnt you possibly consider a entire league reset. This way rules aren't affected teams at end of this season to early next season differntly....everyone will same rules applied evenly...just a suggestion.

I am not whining; just trying to find out the rules. Since rules have changed in the past during the off season and since there has been no mention about whether or not chemistry will reset or be tweaked in offseason, it is only fair that we would like to know. By the way, must be nice to have 11 players on your team--sure makes chemistry easier to manage.Originally posted by BuddyHorn

Why would it not hurt? If players come and/or go to a team it takes time for the team to jell. Any move will effect team chemistry. If you choose to hire mercinaries the price you pay is a chemistry hit.

you might want to check out our offensive and overall chemistry bar.
Man there are many reasons chemistry is not fair (mainly one man teams and friend teams). Nobody is asking what you think of the rule, we are only looking for an answer from a mod or Bort regarding the initial question.




If chemistry isnt affected by offseason moves, there is no point in having it at all. You dont need an answer from them on this, common sense says yes offseason moves will have an effect on chemistry. I didnt say what I thought of the rule, But since you asked I freaking think its awesome. Especially since some of ya whine about it so often. Just play the damn game. The rules are the same for all of us.

I do not agree with this. Teams that gutted teams and consequently have a low Chem now should not get a reset. They knew what the Chemistry rules were at the time.

I DO favor some adjustments, specifically to help teams that are not as good rebuild without suffering as much of a penalty, while at the same time, hopefully, still controlling gutting.

Bort:

Why should it hurt at all?
You are penalizing teams that are legitimately trying to improve....for what reason?
Seems the only way a team can improve chemistry is for the owner to go inactive and do nothing.
I have spent a fair amount of money on this game and can't in good concience spend any more until the rules that penalize teams trying to improve are removed.
Please...find another way to deal with the teams who are breaking the rules by gutting teams without penalizing the legit teams.

I would think that moves in the offseason wouldn't have an impact on chem. Theoretically, you have the offseason and training camp and preseason games to get to work with each other. But we will adapt to whatever the rules are. Bottom line is that you have to get your team fixed regardless of any chemistry penalties. There is a method behind the "madness" so let's just go with it. They are already working on toning things down. I thought of a bunch of ideas for the game last night. I might post them at some point, but I know the Admins have so many things they want to accomplish and I think all of the complaining takes time away from their ability to do some of those things.

I too have spent a fair amount of money on this game and believe that if a player moves to or from a team chemistry will be affected. You cant have the timing and togetherness as a team if you have a bunch of new team mates. Adding one or two key pieces dont effect the team enough to outweigh the benifit, but if you hire a million new guys, it should take them a while to gel. I can see taking less of a hit in the offseason, but not none. Chemistry is one of the best upgrades made to this gmae. Every one knows its there. Work around it.

Dont throw around how much money you spend on here to try to get your way. The game needs to be correct regardless of the opinion of one or two people. I cant in good concience spend my money on here if the rules are changed to pander to people that threaten to take thier ball and go home.

Bort, I am hoping you see that the chemistry bar does nothing but cause issues, please eliminate it I like everything else you have done in GLB but the Chem bar.

It penalizes the teams that use actual pursue real human players.

It rewards the teams that stack the team with the Owners 20+ players.

Just the fact there are so many of these threads must say something about it.

GLB is addicting, everyone I have referred is just as hooked as I am

It really needs some changes. I Think every offseason the Chemistry bar should be at least reset to 60% before each season begin, while those above stay the same or get a little boost. During the offseason is when teams gel and create chemistry. Thats why it should be re-set before each season. Was it posted that it wouldnt re-set when it first took effect?

I don't like the idea of any chemistry resets , as I (and many others no doubt) have worked hard to ensure that chemistry levels are maintained , and we are one of those largely true FA teams. Although I think the no reset has already been agreed.

I do however , think that new owners should be allowed a set grace period to allow them to re-build any previously gutted teams , this may already be in place I don't know.

As for the off-season roster moves , it makes sense that chemistry should be affected , but I also feel that it should have a lesser impact than moves made during the season.

As for chemistry in general , I do like this aspect of GLB as it does solve potential problems regarding team gutting , farming and it should ensure that owners treat their players better to avoid a large turnover. The system may need very minor tweaks but in general I feel it works.
