You did it man, way to go! I can't wait to get my hands on Tecmo Super Bowl done right by a true fan. Respect will be paid to the G.O.A.T. TSB!

You guys have shown us mad love and FOR REAL, thank you for that. This forum is full of the nicest dudes around.

Also, I am sure you will all tear me apart during beta, but that's okay. I pre-forgive you.

Owen Good gives OS a mention is his GH-parting article.

I know you can't really make the throwing motion faster. But like when you press the button to throw it would take a lil while longer for it to register if he has a low rating. But if your qb has a quick release, the ball would be outta his hands as soon as the button is pressed. It would really give players a different feel from each other.
Hmmm. We have not. New stuff is always worth a shot. I'll keep you posted.

Love the feedback. It's a good idea. I am going through code right now.

HAHA! I think we all did at one point!

They had this in Tecmo Super Bowl 3. The "Avoid Rush" rating for QB's determined how quick their release was. It was neat, as the QB's with a high rating were much harder to sack.

They sure did. I was never a fan of TSB3. It was better than TSB1 on SNES but still too slow for me. The player creation was the best part.

Yeah, TSB3 had certain things I really liked. Such as power RB's being able to drag tacklers for a few extra yards before they went down. It was nice to have some balance, since speed is way overvalued in the original TSB.

Oh yea, the dragging defender was awesome. I never cared for the spin much.

The spin was too crazy in TSB3.

If you guys could do that and just name it release speed or something it'd be perfect.
Yea, we'll see what's up. Got a bunch on our plate right now!
