Power runners were extremely valuable in TSB III.

William Floyd comes to mind as one of the best runners in III because of his power ratings.

Only Emmitt Smith was a better runner in that game IMO. Barry Sanders actually kind of sucked in III because he rarely broke tackles except via the occasional spin move.

Also, I am trying to find the greatest way possible to include BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE into this.

Thanks Dave.

So you set 10 plays out of 30 on each side of the ball for a given game. Your first play will be used the most, your tenth play will be used the least.

Are there percentages assigned to each of the slots that you drop a play into? For example slot number one might be 25% and slot ten might be 5%. I couldn't tell from the video.

There will be, yes. We'll sort that out in beta as part of balancing.

We are also testing the idea of having percentages selectable by you the players.

How would that play out on 3rd and 1 and 4th and 1 or 3rd and long?

For example on 3rd and 15 I wouldn't want a play in a goalline formation even if there was a 5% chance of it occurring.

Here is a new play selection and scoreboard screen. It's been updated quite a bit.

End of Qtr scoreboard!

MOAR UPDATES!

Here is our gameplay video from today, 04/15/12! This includes a new scoreboard (not the latest), action bar, play selection screen, cutscenes & much, much more!

There are still some bugs, but heck yes! Progress!

A super sweet cutscene sequence update! Also, the reveal of the new down counter. (Thanks, jyoung)

BOOM. ROASTED.




I will post another UI update later this week!

Is that down and distance arrow that pops up pre-snap new or did I just not notice it before?

Either way, it looks cool. Just like a TV broadcast.
