I'm looking for a guide/FAQ on this damn game and I can't seem to find one. I found one for the first Blitz, but while some of it pertains to this one, there's too many differences. Looking though this board has helped, but the information is all over the place and kinda vague with theories every where.
I kinda figured some stuff out, but I've also found stuff that's made it too late to do anything about. I needed help with training, sponsers, effective plays from the playbook and when to use them, how to be a good sacker and interceptor, how the Reputation bar works, and many other things that I've found out on my own but still have lots of questions about.
If you guys gathered your knowledge into a guide or wiki I'm sure you will learn stuff that you didn't know before and help out a lot of people who have no idea what they're doing.

I can yell at it,,but only when needed.


WHY DONT YOU......YOU put it together, and write the guide,
YOU might learn something.



OR AT LEAST, HOW ABOUT YOU POST SOME TIPS OF
YOURS BEFORE TELLING US WHAT TO DO..


and yeah.....I am in a mood....is the moon full?



I have spent 3, or 4, hours of my time learning this game,
and the payoff is pretty good.

I suggest you spent 15-20 minutes leanring too.



PS
just be glad you dont play on the LA Riot,
cuz I WAS PISSED OFF in the last game,
cuz I WAS SCREWED AGAIN BY A game GLITCH!!!!...
and IT WAS UGLY.......

I DONT NEED THE GUIDE....
How about you pool all the advice and write this guide
BEFORE MIDAWY is out of business...and the board delted.


read the tips, btw-If the tip is longer than a txt msg..I prolly wrote it.

YEAH I AM PISSED!!!!
this is why....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrykUITUu5w

.....but I am feeling better, venting is helping


ANYWAY..I will help you write a guide if you dont
fall by the wayside, or drop the ball after 5 minutes,
like hundreds before you have...



yeah, people come and go.....
AS FOR ME? I AM A BLITZER!!! dont know why...but..

I AM A BERZERK BLITZER >>>WE SAY KIL'Em..ALL!!!

You don't need a guide for this game. Sometimes when you first play, it makes you frustrated. I know this game isn't perfect but I love going online for hours and playing other hardcore gamers. Just spend some time on this game and you will get addicted to it.

There is no guide to those things. You need to just play and learn the little ins and outs of the game. I've played over 200 games online and I still don't know everything and I'm still learning stuff everytime I play, and after all this time I'm still building a better team then the previous one. My suggestion is to just dive in head first and get to playing. Theres no shortcut through everything.

I JUST read it..and then I re read it..and
I must say THERE IS NO CLEAR WARNING THERE!!


I would have talked about
GAME 1 DIV 1 and THEN GAME 2 Div 1,
and losing the level...oh well..

I suppose it all depends on how much clear warning you
wanna give....but I hear the HAHAs loud and clear....

...and I suppose there is no need for my video,,,
everbody already knows, I will delete it.

allrighty then.

Now I do know that I learned MORE for your post GreggNKC. It was much clearer and specific. Your video was even more informative as it shows exactly what went wrong.
Seriously I miss the way this board used to be also. I know I am constanty searching for ways to improve my game and owe most of that to this board. Especially Blitz I. I enjoy helping others with this game if I can. We gotta keep playing and learning and teaching.

"What comes around goes around"

Right?

Also I'd like to add everyone has learned something from both of you.

Yea that doesn't make sense! What I meant was....

Yes your pad level drops one but something else goes up, which is helmet.

I have read quite a few of your posts greg about how you want people who need help to share tips. At first I thought that was kinda retarded because that would be like a Jedi Master telling a padawan to give him tips on using the force if he wants to learn how to use the force, but then I realized that the tips weren't for YOU, they were for anyone reading the board. So now for some tips, though I'm not sure how accurate they are:

Training:
0. Training session is when you can train your team to increase their stats, before most games but not the prison game, not sure if the stat increase is in effect before or after a game, probably before.
1. DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY ASSIGN TRAINING! The computer seems to pick a stat for each player and stick with it no matter how stupid it is to do so (see later tips for examples). It's fine in the beginning, but as the season goes on, it can really hurt your team's growth.
2. The higher a stat gets, the less it gets increased per training session.
3. Don't try to max a single stat's upgrade before getting other stat's upgrades. It's better to spread the money around in the begining than focus on a single stat.
4. I'm not sure how the game assigns how to train players, but it seems that postions are assigned a set of stats that they can train and no others. IE you can pick that a QB can train in speed, Pass, or agility, but not block. I have heard people talking about almost maxing their Franchise's stats, but I don't know if they were lying or it was because of the postions they chose for Franchise, or if theres a trick to being able to switch around what a player can train in, but right noe My Franchise has a dismal 34 in hands as a HB and he's always fumbling and has a hard time catching hail marys.
5. There are groups of postions that get assigned the same training pool and once a stat is picked to be trained by someone, the others in that group can't train in that stat. Note that some groups get more than one of the same stat. IE QB, HB, FB can train in speed, agility, or pass. If HB trains in speed, then FB can train in agility or pass, but not . A combonation of this and #2 is why #1 can cause problems.
6.100 is the Max a stat can get trained, not sure how equipment affects the stats, I think you can see it add more to the stat. You can still train in the stat, but it won't increase anymore. This is another reason why #1 is bad. I spent two training sessions with Franchise on speed before I realized the damn computer hadn't changed the stat to train after Franchise had Maxed his speed.
7. Drafted and injured players coming back aren't assigned any training.
8. If a player is in the high 90's and two training sessions will have points left over and wasted, either wait to be able to buy an upgrade to get the points to perfectly match, or wait to get an equipment upgrade.

I think that's all I got right now, hell I don't even know how right that stuff is, which is why I'm hesitant about putting it down here. Better to be silent than give the wrong answer to confuse people.
I would like to write more but Im too damn tired and I got class tomarrow. I'll write more laterabout why this game DOES NEED a guide to it, especally for new player to blitz and for those who don't know much about football.

So you're saying you know every glitch that can mess up your perfect team? You know all the hidden things to do to get all the sponsers? You have the perfect tactics for dealing with the cheapass AI? You think new players have the knowledge what to and not to do so they don't waste hours of their time building a team that ends up being terrible? I'm sure even you, your highness, have questions that you wish you can easily look up the answers to. This is a message board where people need help and putting together a guide would probably actually do some good for people who spend an hour looking for the anwser to their question, only to find a vague, half anwser. This is not an easy game if you're trying to put together a team that'll actually have a chance to be good online. I've spent hours trying to figure this game out and having a laughable manuel doesn't really help. I don't want to waste vaulable time figuring out something that 90% of the people on this board know. Someone asked about equipment and if higher equipment gets replaced by lower level equipment if you get it afterwards. If there was a guide with glitches listed in it, Greg probably could have avoided his problem.

Also I figured out some things after beating LA that are wrong about training that I had in my earlier post.
1. You can only train three people on your team in the same stat. There aren't any groups like I thought there were.
2. Once a stat hits 100, if it's automatically trained, it can still be picked, but once you manualy reassign it, you can't train in it any more.

Also I learned that the LA Riot are ass****s.
