If I could save up for a few days and give this a +3, I would.

It's mid level. There are quite a few more urgent things atm.

My team (which will come out of this game with probably high prolific/low sensational team ratings in outside scoring against probably wondrous team OD). So, with those stats, my team is shooting 16.7% from the floor at halftime. Compound that with only having 8 defensive rebounds vs. my opponent's 13 offensive boardss and it really is quite astounding. There was a game in the "How did I lose that?" thread where the outside team was at 36 points through 3 quarters before scoring 50 in the fourth. It's way too frequently seen that teams playing outside put up really low shooting for half of the game, and then at some point in the second half the magnet gets turned on and they start scoring at a level, almost as if the engine is trying to fix the obviously wrong shooting percentages generated early on.

Anyway, I'm certain that at some point late I'll probably get within ten. Hell, I may still win. And as the number of teams who put up this level of outside scoring is admittedly very low, I can see it not being urgent. I kind of wish I had a little more time so I'd feel comfortable applying for the development position, but I'm already working full time. But it's definitely careened way past 'buggy' and 'broken' and is now just 'shattered'.

Oh, no, please, the GE is fine as it is. It is the same GE for all the managers, so it is fair. The statistics are realistic. And, let's be honest, if you touch it you can only make it worse. Too many 3s for the Cs? Haven't you watched basketball since Kareem Abdul Jabbar or what?

The worst thing that I can imagine in this game, and the only one that can make me quit at this point, is if I can't predict if my players will perform well next season, because there is a threat that the GE will be revamped.

So, please, put your effort in a mobile friendly game, and let the GE as it is.


Outside shooting at the level my team has should not be 0-15 (0-13) in the first half, ever from the PG/SG positions, which is what I came home to today. And as you'll see from the prior posts in the thread is anything but an anomaly. Whether it should be prioritized over mobile is of course a different question, but the age old question of whether it's a lack of JR training or a broken engine is definitively answered.

[edit: With that said, I think there's more than enough information here to demonstrate the bugs, which have already been acknowledged, and so there's no point in keeping the thread open further.]
