"Part of the game" doesn't mean its important to replicating the total experience. If there is no user mechanic then there must be a dice roll. Unless you are going to hard code something extremely rigid like "a player with a AWR rating less than 50 always commits bad snaps, otherwise no bad snaps", you must include randomness. As soon as you say "a player with AWR 80 does bad snaps 5% of the time", you have to include randomness to figure out when that 5% happens. You draw a random number 1 through 100 and if it's 5 or less, bad snap. Statistics outside of ratings don't change anything, because again that just gives you a percentage chance an event will happen, and you still need a random number to compare against the probability to generate the outcome.

This statement right here tells me you don't want to play on simulation

Huh?

Because he doesnt think that something that occurs on less than 1% of snaps is necessary to be added that means he doesnt want to play on simulation.

The truth is the number of people who want a true 100% simulation is small. Most people would fall into the category that CM Hooe described.

I love simulation football. Having botched snaps in the game would be fine but there are SO MANY more important elements that have to be implemented in the game before that. I'd rather the team use their limited amount of time to do that instead of trying to figure out a way to implement something that rarely happens in real life.

All we need is a sim game slider. NBA 2k has one that adjust simulated game lengths. So whether you play on 6 9 or 12 minute quarters you can make the sim games length match and balance the stats

Where is this idea that the selected quarter length matters in sims coming from? If you set the length on one minute for example, you're still going to see full game stats coming out of the sims...

If anything I feel like there are too many plays in sims more often than not. What with a lot of scores up in the 40-50 range and all.

Supersim adjusts automatically to give the right number of snaps regardless of quarter length.

Is it the same for simmed games? Not super sim but the games on the schedule you can't play. What I mean is if I play on 6 minute quarters will the simmed stats for ALL other teams in the league reflect this or will they be simmed based on 15 minute quarters. The proble for me is I don't have time for 15 minute quarters but still want the stats in my cfm to be balanced.

[jfsolo]

I've found that most people who play with shortened quarters, have a playstyle that either still produces the number of plays in a regular length game or puts up the stats that would be in regular game anyway. Because of this the simmed games being based on 15 minute quarters does not produce stats that are inconsistent with the user's stats.

supersim may create 120-130 plays but how do i know games not onmy screen have the same? i dont supersim other games i play mt teams and forward weeks i have no idea if they get the same.
