v25 Conversion Poll

[CTBrewCrew]

Voted!

[ae37jr]

Both Fred and Alan have basically said "I'm good with whatever."

I didn't realize this was an official "have to vote poll". But what Ron said is exactly my opinion. Except if I happen to win the Brewster this year. I might walk it off with bookend Brewsters like I've been trying to do forever.

[RonCo]

Granted, if the new game tanks Mynorli Gaajlimitz then I'll be pissed.

He looks just as dubious in 25 (so far?) as he does in 24.

[RonCo]

While the file won't work for us, I suggest anyone who gets v25 go ahead and import the v24 game into that environment just to get more practiced at looking at the ratings. Bring both games up and do side-by-side comparisons.

Conversion documentation from devs

[JimBob2232]

Im starting to change my mind....i am admittedly anti-change. id like to see it play out more before adopting. But i also dont want to to go into an offseason with this much uncertainty.

[Chuck V]

I think with this many changes, somebody is going to figure out a way to break something like player development. I vote waiting until after the 2059 season when many issues are revealed and resolved.

[RonCo]

Random thought: I'm wondering if the "right" step is to (1) Move to v25 now, but (2) turn off the development lab for 1 season while we figure out if it's right for us.

i definitely think the development lab needs to be off for us until we are able to figure out what we want to do with it

[Knucklehead254]

If there's a way to turn off developmental lab I'd be fine with switching over to 25 next season.

I agree. People have already found a way to take advantage of it and the last patch was to fix it. It may take a while for them to get it dialed in.

[RonCo]

I love the idea of the development lab, but my own view on major OOTP features is that it's not really about bugs so much as it is about design...meaning it takes 1-3 years for major design changes to be dialed in right.

[Bob Breum]

The development lab is the main reason that I voted in favor of moving to 25. Seems likely to cause fewer issues than the ratings do-overs. Development isn’t going to happen overnight.

[recte44]

I need to do some testing on it. I asked for one specific thing in settings in regards to the development lab with our league in mind, and I'm not sure if it made it in.

I'm quite interested in the dev lab, too. That said, whenever we get to kicking v25 on, I'm open to skipping the dev lab until we know for sure it's working well. I've done some very limited testing on it. I'm moderately sure any egregious issues will be resolved. But I'm open to turning it off for a year if the time comes and we're not comfortable.

I probably missed it. What did you ask for?

I'll try to do some additional testing on it this weekend, too.

[Dington]

Early on it was far too easy to create defensive wizards. They fixed that portion of it so it can only be run once per offseason instead of 4 times. Haven't played with it too much since early beta, but it appears they've fixed the issues.

[RonCo]

Yeah. My main concern is that the process can't be abused. I fully expect there will be tweaks on how it works for a year or three.

[recte44]

That has already been fixed in the latest beta patch (will confirm).

@RonCo I asked for the ability to set number of Development Lab slots per team per season in the Commissioner Portal. Thereby we can use it as our PP Lab, you pay X and get X amount of slots. Talk about cutting down MY workload!!!
