How much is left of the pigskin abuse because the playoff window closes in like four hours and it would be awesome to see how far we've come.

For some reason the mics were not working. Couldn't even get into a drop in game because the servers were messing up. I don't think we got into a regular season game because if servers as well. Did that get fixed yet?

So yeah, the reason our opponents become so much better isn't because we go from D10 to D9, it's just bad luck with matchmaking. How do I know this? Because I checked some of our earlier opponents and they're from several different divisions. That 420 team we beat 6-3 and outplayed in every single way? They're D7. It's just EA matchmaking, again.

Crossposting from the main NHL 14 thread: The Rev posted:Does anyone even really know what a stat does, not what people think/say it does? I mean, I usually put a healthy amount of points into strength because over the years I feel like it does something at bare minimum. Man as fun as it is to play as a Power Forward wrecking dudes, it's really hard with low stats to get anyone lined up. I don't know how you do it Rut. I think I have to settle with playing a mobile DFD and playing as a 2-way agile Patrice Bergeron type C. e: Just checked the club stats. Topped Rut in PIM.

It was asked a couple times over the last couple days how my guys have such high ratings despite never winning, so Im stealing and summing up Zip!'s amazing posts on how to do it quickly in Live The Life from the main thread: 1) Create a Center and set difficulty to rookie 2) Set periods to 5 mins and from the options tank all the AI stats while maxing the human ones (where applicable, dont max human injury chance  )3) Start at the draft and play the Memorial Cup, get lots of points so you get drafted first overall 4) Sim first 2 periods, jump in and play the 3rd 5) Get a goal, an assist, crush a dude, and keep your ratings at A+, aim for the season expectations Repeat a minimum of 50 times, you can sim the rest of the games, and then make sure you win the Cup in your first year for another unlock. A couple more unlock from playing a second season in the same manner. Overall a season takes a couple hours, and while it can get kind of boring, the boosts are why my EASHL dudes went from lumbering oafs to decent dudes that can now crush tiny mans and tiny pucks.

Three consecutive games at drop-in where I posted a 90+ S%! Up to Veteran 2 now, slowly getting to those superstar levels. (it's veteran>allstar>superstar, right?) Rutkowski fucked around with this message at 22:37 on Sep 23, 2013 |

Actually it's right from vet to superstar, then legend. So you're even closer than you thought! I played my first real, honest, not-letting-myself-bail-if-we-get-throttled OTP game as a goalie yesterday and put up an .893 or something with n overtime 4-3 victory. It was gratifying as hell to play behind a team of 65 OVRs against a team of 75 OVRs and not give up any lousy goals. Might just go ahead and buy the boost pack though because that seems unsustainable at 57 OVR and frankly my luck is not good enough to make up for the combination of my bad rating and bad skills for very long.

Just had an awesome game as a goalkeeper. Started with going down 3-0 on three consecutive 3-0 breakaways where both of my D were behind their entire team. Immediatly I set into the mindset that it's just how this game is going to be but then the entire team quit at once. Queue us(me and the AI) mounting a comeback where it's 3-3 after the first, 5-4 after the second(the AI let through their only 2-0 breakaway during the game leading to their lone goal) and 6-5 full time(their goal came when my game lagged so I didn't actually see it until after it happened). Normally, those comebacks are fun if a bit degrading on the stats. However, what made this an awesome comeback is because once my team left I somehow got access to their voicechat so I heard their continious raging when they couldn't pierce the heavy-forechecking 1-3-1 trap and promtly spent most of the game shouting at eachother in german. Gotta love that shaudenfraude.

Some interesting games last night, except maybe for the very last one... I sure hope one of you saved some of our airborne hits, and hilarious goals, those were great. I need to play some more games, still only Veteran 2. I'm not sure I will be on much, if at all tonight, we will see. Tomorrow I should be on later in the night if anyone is around then.

There's no point me playing with you guys when I'm such a low level (even though playing with ya all is a blast). It's like playing all-star with an amateur player. Can't hold the puck if there's anyone within 15 feet of me, can't accept a pass/intercept the puck, and am basically a ragdoll out there (though I do draw a shitload of penalties). I'm only hindering you guys out there. I'll try to level up a bit more. Edit - Thanks for the kind words. What really bothers me I cannot seem to avoid a check, as I'm so slow (hence why I seem to draw so many penalties), and I have to pass the puck almost as soon as I receive it, otherwise I'll get buried, or get it stolen off me, and give up a rush in the other direction. I'm hoping it's because my players attributes are so poor, and not me. I'll keep at it, and appreciate the feedback. Kragger99 fucked around with this message at 01:44 on Sep 28, 2013 |

Dude you played great at wing. To be honest, you should stay there instead of in the forward position because you did a lot better there. And none of us is especially high leveled. The highest skaters are at Pro(which isn't that high) and the highest overall is my goaltender at Superstar 1 but goaltender levels doesn't count. Your biggest hindrance is the lack of mic but you have a good enough sense of the play to compensate for that. Also, the reason me and nFredriksson mash so well is because we're, well, brothers and know eachother playstyles in and out. EDIT: Jersey picture is coming up tomorrow because I forgot to take a picture before I went offline.
