Any one have any info/ thoughts on the new game version. I have heard that there will be alot of changes. Don't get me wrong. Change is what keeps the game fresh. I guess I'm asking for opinions of how drastic (or not) it will affect game play. ****, I still trying to adjust from the last one LOL MM

It will drastically change QB play.. Duo QB's will no longer be effective..if one comes in the middle of the game he will be "cold" and take an attribute penalty.

I heard there are also changes to m2m coverage, because WR's were winning 90% of the 1v1 battles or something like that.

Check out the MFN-1 beta chat thread, lots of input and JDB has a list of all the changes. Setherick and Raymattison are (or were) heavily involved in the testing. i was there not too long ago but had to drop my team. i got to see the new code and it was a disaster.

I have read several of the post in beta 1 and that's why I'm asking yeah I'm kind of scared of what's going to happen doesn't look like it's really ready to roll out. Lots of glitches from what I'm reading. Although I'm not the smartest when it comes to code. It will be fun trying to figure out the new game. Thanks for the Insight Dash anyone else have an opinion

Yes it was suppose to roll out this week, but its broke from what i heard now and has been delayed. certainly not ready.

This is something Setherick shared with me a few weeks ago and I'm pretty excited about it. In the next game version slow DB's/WR's won't be so useless. I'm not in a Beta league and I haven't looked through the forums in a while, so I haven't seen it in action but it sounds good.

I was sorry to see that a few of the long time owners feel like they don't want to be a part of the League's anymore. Well I would hate to see this game turn into a video game type. An actual simulation would be kind of boring. You need the long runs, spectacular passing, interceptions, kick and punt returns to make the game interesting. However sometimes the Sims go awry. I have had games with nine interceptions and 10 sacks and still lost. I have had games where my quarterback threw for less than 200 yards and we had three fumbles and an interception or two and still came out on top. Part of the game is trying out to figure out a way to Win It!

Yes I do want to have a realistic game. And I can understand why a lot of players get frustrated. I certainly do on a weekly basis and I only have 4 teams. My solution is not to watch the game. Because the graphics have never caught up to the quality of the game. I had a good laugh when they added diving tackles. How frustrating is it to finally get 2 number 1 draft picks in the top 12 and have one of them go from a 2600 trade value and a 96 rating only for him to lose 32 grading points and end up a 161 trade value. I'm now paying him to the million dollars a year for 4 more years cuz nobody would take him. In the long run it's just a game and I really enjoy it for the most part. People get frustrated I understand but really isn't the fun of it trying to be a winner and overcome All Odds

Thanks for the discussion my friend good luck to you. Let's just have some fun and play the game PS if you know anyone who wants teams we need people in 35 and 10. Good owners and mentors wanted;)

Great info..I am a huge believer in speed and catch/run for WR's/RB's. I try to keep my defense in tune 80/90 speed. The slower Db's were just getting smoked no matter how good there coverage ATT's were! It always seems that the receivers have always had the upper hand. I have just relegated myself to finding the fastest guys to chase em down LOL Thanks for you take MM

It won't be rolled out in our league til the end of this season. jdb doesn't like to roll out updates (other than hot fixes or stats) in the middle of a leagues season.

The pass game is getting improved with each update. You guys may need need to adjust how you game plan the pass game some on both sides of the ball. Our TD/Int ratios have gone down in MFN-1 for the better imo.

I hope the defense is more improved than the offense. Passing offenses are ridiculous already.
