I might be the only one who's in favor of injuries


far from it (215737.1)

output of that thread is pending suggestion that injuries are only in-game, maybe thatd be a happier medium

Hey, I just said i liked injuries & unbalanced fouling!!
a) incentivize depth (by making it worthwhile to spread talent around)

Then they should heavily penalize performance when starters play almost all 48 minutes. Instead of encouraging it, like they do now. Where not resting actually results in better performance late in games half the time.

I can't tell you how often i've seen a team with 5 great starters & zero depth get completely shut down in the 1st half (especially 1st quarter) against a very deep team. Only to completely dominate from late in the 3rd quarter on... It makes no sense. Someone that rested half the game should have a decided advantage late vs. a heavily fatigued player. Doesn't even matter if those playing all 48 have decent stamina or not. (which often they don't. & makes it even more frustrating...)

So I agree that they should make depth matter. (one of my biggest annoyances with BB). Just injuries don't really do that effectively, IMO.

I would actually like an intermediate system in which initial injury is always in-game. If injured in-game you go to banged-up status. If you get another injury while in banged-up status it becomes a multi-game injury (kinda like in hattrick, but hattrick also had the direct injury thing).


A compromise I could live with. Def an improvement from the current system.

you stole my thunder. was going to reply to his other points & propose similar, but got distracted. I'd go along with even up to 1 week injuries though. (maybe 2 weeks with a minimal doctor in case a team tries to cheap out)

@Coco Chanel
ok. was going to make a really nice counter to your "deter one-and-done teams" point, but never-mind now.

I would actually like an intermediate system in which initial injury is always in-game. If injured in-game you go to banged-up status. If you get another injury while in banged-up status it becomes a multi-game injury (kinda like in hattrick, but hattrick also had the direct injury thing).

or how about letting injured players play, but giving them a moderate performance penalty? Maybe drop GS to mediocre for the injury duration, & even temporarily drop stamina to atrocious too if that's not enough. & Don't allow them to receive training while injured either(not even team trainings). idk, didn't give much thought to it yet, lol

oh & i have a going on 3 year injury in hattrick. player ID: 177970827 (if you want to look him up) injured since 2009...
