I don't know if it has already been suggested, but I think it would be nice to change the way the scouting bars work. Now they work only on natural attributes, but what I suggest is to make them work with equipment and Attribute VAs. This way the scouting bars would say something and then we would see a difference in scouting bars between the players who upgrade their equipment intelligently and those who don't.

Example of two level 45 HBs with the same build (i.e. with same scouting bars) :

HB 1:

Attributes
Physical Attributes
Strength: 48
Speed: 80 (+20 in EQ = 100)
Agility: 70 (+4 in EQ = 74)
Jumping: 40
Stamina: 50
Vision: 60
Confidence: 50

Football Skills
Blocking: 10
Catching: 40
Tackling: 8
Throwing: 12
Carrying: 68
Kicking: 8
Punting: 8

HB 2

Attributes
Physical Attributes
Strength: 48
Speed: 80 (+5 in EQ = 85)
Agility: 70
Jumping: 40 (+10 in EQ = 50)
Stamina: 50 (+9 in EQ = 59)
Vision: 60
Confidence: 50

Football Skills
Blocking: 10
Catching: 40
Tackling: 8
Throwing: 12
Carrying: 68
Kicking: 8
Punting: 8


So we all know the 1st HB has better upgraded his equipment than the second, so why the 1st one would have the same scouting bars than the second one?

Also an alternative I'd see would be to include SA in the scouting bars, so it would give us a bit more information about them.

What do you think?

I don't see why it would be a bad thing to be able to manipulate the scouting bars.

or it could add the bonus equipment in another color, this way you couldn't be faked by an agent.

and to the OP
not many people look at the lolbars anyway, most good scouts either have the monsterkill2 greasemonkey or they actually watch the plays and those usually tell you more things then the lolbars

I OC, and honestly I do not look at them much, but I think it would be more interesting if the bars really meant something. If they do not indicate anything like right now, why do we keep them.

Bars should be re-worked to include gear IMO....... 100 speed = 100 speed, whether you have a natural 80 & 20 in gear, or a natural 65 with 35 pts in gear. Just saying........

Will only mess up my scouting if you did it during previous games...... nice try though.

If you do that it's your choice. However I see the scouting bars more like a way to compare players of the same position than a way to scout the other players. For example, it would help in the marketplace when the player's build is closed.

And also, to change it just before a game you would need to be active on a baily basis, which is not the case for most of the people, and that is without the fact that there is stats and games to show how your player is.

the bars cant tell you anything as it is now and just making the numbers higher still wouldnt do anything

The bars are there as an indication, like an overall of some of the players attributes. Why would we take an overall of just a part of the attributes instead of taking all into account?
