Please Charles, any decision you can take is ok but please, don't get this game too easy (I speak about training and money) all of us would like to have best drafted player, tons of $ and the perfect player; I remember the beginning when everything it was "hard and difficul" but when also the fun was really high

First, This post doesn't existe in the spanish global Forum? 'Cause I don't see it.

I'm a newbie player, so, in the Draft, I got some players in the first line.. (SG... Idon't know ---Refers to Base and Escolta----) The training options to increase the inside defense is only "Press".
In the help forum, this skill is training but like a secondary skill... (I think).

I'm right?

If the answer is yes, then... maybe U can make another option where Inside Defense will be the main?

Pressure trains Outside Defence as the main.
Inside Defence trains Inside Defence as the main.

Does this solve your problem?

Any additional options for any position is welcomed by me..

Ned - I dont think its about making the game easier but I have not played my best 5 in position other than in a PL game since i started playing...

So shall we all continue to set lineups using players that lack certain skills in key areas (and never train them) or play a jumbled line up that you hope is still strong enough to win and slowly add to the lacking skills on players before you can play them back in their preferred or more natural position...

I just want to be able to play my best 5 v someone elses best 5 every week....(in the right positions!)

I'd echo that sentiment. Players should be able to play from their position.

There was talk earlier about watching out for the new people -- isn't the current even harder for a new person?

Consider a player listed as a SG, who's skills are probably better suited towards being a SF. If a newer person is even able to grasp the concept that SG may not be the best position (even though he's listed that way) -- would they be able to grasp the concept of playing this one as a C/PF for a game to up inside scoring/rebound/whatever?

There are so many options and so many possible tweaks that no matter what is done with this system -- optimal training is still going to be difficult. I would imagine it best to allow the player to make the choice -- straightforward and simple.

If it's felt to be important enough to protect new people from training SB with guards -- don't make guards an option on those few stats. The weighting from height should be enough of an influence to deter consistent training in strange areas, I'd imagine.

The variety is what will make the game most interesting -- different players, used different ways. Why put a limit on how different the players can be? With the caps introduced from Potential, how much damage can really be done by allowing training to be more focused as long as there are checks and balances in place to keep things from getting out of hand?
