A few things you can do to make the game better

I guess this will be a good way to find out!

Since I want the stats to reflect the kind of game that I get when I play versus the cpu teams, this is why I want to avoid the sim engine.

Now that being said, I guess a person could sim a season and then base your sliders on those numbers, but it might not play the way you want. But, at least the sim engine and the games you play would be more in tune for the league.

I am running a parallel sim league that I will compare as I go. Already I can see that the injuries while sim games are much more drastic, and based on some of the numbers I am seeing I expect there to be more goals and PP chances in the sim engine.

If nothing else, it should be interesting. Maybe I will look at making a slider set that mimics the sim engine, once I am done.

Wow! I can't believe I went this long with the puck control slider set backwards!!!

The puck control slider sets how easy it is to knock a player off the puck, the higher the setting the easier it is. I have mine set at four and there are way more loose pucks.

are you serious?

I know, my reaction was wtf! I was using slider at zero before and decided to play around a bit and found this out.

The puck control slider's a bit confusing, and its description is contradictory.

In theory, increasing the puck control slder would make it harder for players to lose the puck. However, the description says the exact opposite.

I never thought that this slider was reversed, but I remember having the slider at 3 or 4 a few years ago.

Will try increasing the slider to max to see if it's reversed.

Where is this description about puck control slide?

anyway i have tested this at 3 and 4 .... seems more loose pucks when it is in moviment...... poke check seems strangely less effective i have it at 4/5 and blocking shots is more difficult ....... another thing there is more goalie rebounds...
