When have you encountered luck in your everyday life?

We've wanted a new sim engine for like 3 years now, if there was a good replacement we would have probably moved by now eh

What is wrong with DDSPF21?

Haven't been around enough lately to hear what would be wrong with DDSPF21 specific. Which is a shame.

So I was curious about this too, I asked Bex a while back and she said "Thing number one at the moment is that you can't import players outside of starting a league. Meaning player updates would have to be put in by hand."

Which is obviously a big negative, like unplayable, but hopefully WS adds that? Cause 21 isn't even out yet. Also, there are so many benefits to 21 that would benefit the league as a whole. It's like taking away drugs from an addict, the addict won't like it, but it's for his own benefit. All the sim nerds will be upset that they can't do spend hours on futile testing, but it's for the better. Once I found out how luck based the league was I really lost interest, and what Slate was saying as to how "solved" all the strategies were, I didn't really care as much about my player, and I'm attributing his terrible performances to "sim luck".

Interesting, what are some of these benefits to upgrading to 21? Did they fix the sim taking like hours?

I never really liked sim testing myself, but I do like the mindgames in sim testing. Sure it's random and increasing your winrate 5% in ur own save file, wont translate to the actual file, cuz hey they also changed their strats, but I do believe giving our gms someway to interact and make sure strats are working is a good thing.

I do agree that in this sim sometimes your player and their tpe just doesnt matter. 50 tpe IA kickers can have 100/100 seasons in the nsfl, rookie RBs can easily win RBotY, CBs at high tpe just lose out on stats for some reason.

There are better stats, especially for CB and I think some of the logic is cleaner, but it’s just 5 years more advanced than 16 and you can’t sim test, which is one of the best advantages
