And you don't think teams switch tactics in game in the NBA? It might not be as random as this would and this would be more guesswork than countering an opponents new strategy, maybe this could be an option for PL's

You can make live changes in the NBA. If a team changes tactics, you can change tactics to counter your opponents tactics.

You can't here as the games are simulated 15 minute before the game viewer starts. This is where the guess work comes from if you are able to change tactics every quarter as you will have no idea what your opponent is going to play every quarter.

Sometimes, a game just can not emulate rel life especially when it is not happening in real time. this is one of those scenarios.

lets say your opponent play look inside - run and gun - look inside - runandgun alway in random order. So overall he is playing a neutral focus, but he gets the offense advantage throuhgh a specialised offense every quarter.

And even if the opponent scout him right, he can not defend with the right zone at the right time to counter the offensiv bonus - because if he trys so he will be off in 50% of the quarters which will lead to an disadvantage instead of an advantage in my eyes.

So what if you could have 1 tactic in advance to second half - if you are losing the game? Like you lose 45-55, playing low post against 2-3 zone (well obviously coach should know that during that time), you instructed your coach to play RaG (or better outside isolation, because probably there will be only like 1 outside player capable to do anything about it). Or maybe you could switch a whole lineup.

While it is about guessing before the game, might be interesting to be able to choose some kind of safety-switch mechanism. Perhaps even for cases where you will be sure that if you cannot win first half, you can get there scrubs only.

Question is if this is not too much work to pick up such tactic for the game, but usually happens that games are very uneven (most of them) and real competition comes like 5-10 times per season. For both cases it would be really helpful. Especially if there could be any "save" named as you want.

but if you react normaly the oponent react too, or not especially when the changes are drastic. Today the coach adjust the tactic slightly, when you play outside against an very strong outside tactic you play more inside later in the game, and if that is working the opponent coach maybe starts to protect his basket better. The same goes for 2-3 Zones against inside tactic, that the focus starts moving outside currently - but in a way that the right tactics from the beginning are always better.

I think with such drastic changes tactics starts to become unimportant, and people maybe even starts to complain that they loose because trhey scored 5 points to much in the first half ;)

In reality, the believe the game engine slowly adjusts how each team plays (learning what works best), so I'm not sure how well changing tactics, even in this manner, would work.

Indeed it sounds like tactics get less importancy. Also coach does it today that he tune current tactic slightly to better, but it is quite strange when it comes to your lineup - you might have there players which arent able to play that effectively.

And thats what Im talking about. Another thing is that you surely cannot anticipate almost anything and with volume of tactics we have in the game already, it is starting to be kind of just about luck. Well, personally Im not complaining, because I build-up whole philosophy of my team on that.

It is just there could be more things to anticipate. If decision between these two tactics (and lineups) could come with every timeout, might be ok. Also you could prefer at which conditions you like to choose one of those (so like 5 points doesnt matter if you dont want to).

but i think the coach just make it towards the direction it works best, so a versatil roster has his advantages even when he maybe get in trouble through the defence a bit earlier.

Tactics are used to outsmart an opponent. You would be playing A or B, and such an option makes both possible, diminishing the chances to outsmart an opponent tactically.

I've seen how they done such a thing with Hattrick and I dare say this game would definitely be less fun. Therefor I'm against it.
