Scouting skill points

95 points a week to scout draft prospects? Why did they change that? How can you find out anything about a prospect with 95 points a week?

Because they made scouting cheaper.

Re: Scouting skill points

I saw some things were but there are still a lot of 500 and 100 ' s. I don't think the ratio is the same as last year.

It's a lot cheaper to open initial scouting options and see the letter grade for that trait. It costs a lot to open the actual rating, which makes scouting both easier and harder this year. Do you spend all your points trying to figure out the exact ratings for that top prospect or do you use your points to scout most of your draft board but not as in depth?

All letter grades should be unlocked by the end of the year for all players imo.

Re: Scouting skill points

I think it's fine.
You can also unlock double scouting points if you get that upgrade for your coach.
You need to pick and choose based on needs etc..
By the end of the year you should have enough info to make the best decision you can based on the stuff you've unlocked.
No one really ever knows the whole story with any draft pick. Yeah there are some that seem and sometiomes are a sure thing but that's few and far between.
IMO it adds to the draft and seeing how well or bad you did in your selections.

Re: Scouting skill points

For the life of me, I still don't understand why you can't see all of the player measurables. I mean, in real life, you know the 40 times, bench reps, etc. even if you don't send a scout to watch them. Anything that is empirically measurable, or clear from their history (like scheme) should be provided free of cost.
