What's been done to Field Goals?
March 22, 2011 at 02:27AM View BBCode
In this playoff game there were 4 missed FGs, 2 by each team, very makeable, a 4mph wind(negligible). What's up. This was weird.http://football.simdynasty.com/boxscore.jsp?boxscoreid=17616

Pretty sure the cold weather effects them a bit, also they were all 40+ yard attempts, so definitely not chipshots even in fair weather.

One of the wide left attempts at 40 yards missed the upright by inches, in the direction of the wind. A 46-yard attempt into the wind was accurate but short, probably a result of the cold (14 degrees Farenheit in Minnesota... brr!). A 40 yard attempt wide right, again just outside the upright by inches, and a 41 yard attempt wide right outside the crossbar by about two feet. So three very near misses and one short... an unlucky day for sure but not due to changes in code. The most recent changes related to kicks have actually made long kicks easier to hit, not harder.

They had to be makeable at least to the percentage specified in your strategy settings (it decides on the percentage by actually simulating 5000 kicks on the spot).One of the wide left attempts at 40 yards missed the upright by inches, in the direction of the wind. A 46-yard attempt into the wind was accurate but short, probably a result of the cold (14 degrees Farenheit in Minnesota... brr!).
