Who is not renewing?

Is it possible to see somewhere which teams in the league are not renewed for the following season? If not, is it possible to set this up?

I could probably add that -

I've added a tab to the user card that shows a user's league history, including how far they have renewed with their current teams.

I won't be, this game sucks.

Under 50% completion percent on my QB, but everyone who plays me has 70% or higher. Tons of passes are thrown no where near receivers. I'm running a man coverage defense and there's one play, a quick pass to the TE, where no one covers him and the play almost always means a TD... I don't have a ******* clue on how to stop it. Gameplanning is a joke too.

Get someone who actually coaches football to help you design this.

I have several issues with this post.

1) We are 14 games into the season, and this is the first we've heard from you. If you have so many issues with the game, why didn't you say something earlier in the season. The guy who created this game is here every day, listening to issues and trying to make the game better. We need players here who are willing to offers suggestions and ideas and tell what is wrong with the game.

2) I am in every league (6 total), and I don't have the problems you have with my QB or my opponents. Have you considered that, MAYBE, it's just YOU and NOT the game? Of course you haven't. Now that you've read this, think about it.

3) I guess you are a coach, and you know all about everything that coaches do... and this game is terrible?

I just hate guys who **** at a game, and they always blame the creators because they ****. It's the creator of the game who made you **** at it. You are a genius... except at this one game, because the game sucks. Give me a break, dude. Put some time and effort into it, and you can figure it out. You just want it handed to you on a silver platter. That's not going to happen in this game.

I'm sorry this game is losing a player, but I am happy to see whiny little bitches like you leaving.

Also, I think this game has a ton of potential... if people come here and post problems with the game. JDB, the creator of this game, is always open to ideas and suggestions. He is willing to talk about any problems any one may have in the game.

So, for the rest of you who aren't sure... speak up. Try being civil, and don't blame your ineptitude on the game. He's always looking for ways to improve the game... so give JDB some new ideas!

I've made numerous adjustments through-out the season, after 14 games, I'm finally fed-up.

There's no interface for adjusting QB tactics. You can only somewhat call the plays.

My QB is above average ratings-wise, particularly in passing attributes. Yet, he ******* sucks... he has the lowest completion percent in the league and leads the league in INTs, he also has the lowest QBR. Mind you, I'm calling only plays that the team executes well (i.e. best familarity rating), yet my QB cannot complete half of his attempts. I also run a heavily weighed short passing attack, with the occasional mid to deep pass plays peppered in... so running an offensive scheme that is all about high percentage attempts (well practiced and not overly difficult throws), the best my above average QB can do is ~50% comp pct? Get fucked.

I've watched every snap of every game and the guy throws ***** at literally no one (or right to defensive players), a good amount of the time.

I won't even get started on the whole, super ridiculous, rolling out on every play. The interactions between players is completely unrealistic. There's no timing patterns, there's no passing pocket, players run thru one another, etc...

This has nothing to do with my ability or inability to play the game. The coaching interface is stupid and comically bad. It was clearly written by someone who doesn't coach football. In-fact, I've had more success in this game by utiliing completely unrealistic gameplans (i.e. 100% passing) than trying a realistic approach.

This game is all about coaching, yet it has little to nothing to do with coaching. Even GLB does coaching better, yet the focus of that game is the player-building, not the coaching...

There is the possibility that your player (i'm referring to the QB) may have had a bug in his attributes of some sort. I have had a mild issue in another league where the QB did pretty decent the year before but was tossing INT's the next year. I don't know that my QB had a bug of any sort it could have just been the D scouting my team better....who knows?

either way I'm just suggesting that you could have contacted the creator and asked him to look into it during the season. It is odd that you had that much of a problem.

I like the game but also realize that viewing the game is somewhat unrealistic. I remember some games I viewed where the QB would do to much roll out (usually due to being rushed though) and also throwing into a seemingly blank space. I will say that it was never to the extreme that you described so that leads me to believe there may have been a bug related to your passing game, ie: QB or QB coach or any facet of the game dealing with the passing game.

anyhow just my 2 cents and that's about all it's worth lol
