DT improvements

July 30, 2011 at 04:07PM View BBCode

I don't know if it's on purpose or not, but I notice in Gamma that no DT are receiving any ICs at all in Run Coverage or Pass Coverage.

I looked at the cards of the top dozen or so, and this was the case.

I know Run Coverage is a skill DT use (in fact, it's pretty important), so it struck me as odd.

DTs dont get pass cover ICs.
They improve in str, run cover, tkl, agil, Exec.
Mine are not getting run cover either.

I notice some players get occasional ICs in areas that aren't focal, like a RB getting tackling improvements.

Is it not possible for DT to get pass coverage ICs at all? I acknowledge it might never factor into the game, so it might be pointless, but sometimes you do see a DT get thrown into a situation where he's covering a back coming out for a short pass or screen.

Possibly when Chris puts new formations into the game like zone blitz

It's possibly a bug, I'll check it out.

It was a bug... it's fixed.

The RB tackle improvement was likely from Drills; the default A drill trains a number of skills.

Thanks, Chris.

Any chance of an Improvement Report coming soon? It would make detecting things like this a lot easier :)

Working on it now... was trying to convert the baseball improvement report code but I think it'll be easier to write it from scratch.

I understand. It's going to be so valuable to see everything on one page. It's worth it. You couldn't release this for pay leagues without it, IMO.
