Which details are no longer relevant? For us newer guys


Anything that involves player salaries (especially the draft part where it gives projected salaries by the current ability ball rating). Salary formulas have changed to the point where it's really not useful to use the range in the post any more.

The draft advice and scouting investment is also dated. Since the time that was written, more options have been added to be able to determine current player skills, so having more skill points is helpful - and more importantly, unusued scouting points now carry over from season to season, so there's a strong case to invest 10k every week as long as it's affordable, even if you don't need them this season.

It's also a little behind the times with the economy - I don't think the salary floor or luxury tax existed when written, and if it mentions promotion bonuses that would be outdated.

It's definitely still a great overall guide for what it has, though. It used to be what came up if you hit the Help option on the menu, but that now goes to the tutoring thread (which is also a useful resource).

I think that should read "unused scouting points."

Although, let's think about unused skill points ...
