THL (S3) GM Connected: Information/League Talk Thread

what do you have your teams strategy set to? check your HUT strats, and then make them match up with the Kings.

It sounds like you have your strategy set as Defend Lead which the Description says Player will not take any chances. You have to set your strategy up . you can set it up for each line so when you start a game and get to the starting lineups hit RS which is the right thumb stick that will get you to your team strategies. you can also change it in game play. hopefully that will help you

good post!

you are exactly right..

every team is set different by default, even in HUT. whatever teams jersey you have on and logo it seems thats what strat you use. once he checks that out, since he like sit, he can then use the same for the Kings.

smooth 1st few weeks guys. good stuff! lets keep it up..

a few trades were processed and one waiver claim.

I'll sign in as the kings later tonight

welcome gi1jam to the league as the Kings..

also, looks like we will have a Blue Jackets owner soon as well!

lets keep this talk in here, not scheduling thread..

but yeah, dont blame Fleury LOL, its the settings. the All Star Level is way too easy. i barely give up shots for the most part, so he dont have to make that many tough saves.

i wish we had a set up to where, if i won 5 to 8 games in a row, it would make me play on the Superstar level for the next 5 games, win or lose. if i lost 2 or 3 in a row on All Star then i would play 2 or 3 on Pro etc.

bc, some skill levels are rough for some guys but easy for others. the above would be a great way to have a happy medium in a league.

haha. we can't even get EA to give a commish access to turn on auto-pilot, how are they going to give us a dynamic league setting? haha.

this NHL league is clearly too easy for Fiddy... i'm enjoying it though and find it quite challenging. my brother (Ya Dunn Know) is in 2nd in the league and i've beat him twice. had two good games against niuhuskie224 so far as well. i'm waiting for my games against Ricky Boots , because i know they'll be a battle.

only thing that concerns me is using the updated tuners. sometimes i feel like they tweak things that they shouldn't tweak. the game plays differently for me now than it did in the first advance. my guys don't move as well, and my defense has been sketchy at best. closer to the issues where my guys are stuck in mud in the defensive zone. and i've been using an uploaded AI file the whole time. unless it's reverted back somehow during an advance?

also, i don't remember there being hybrid icing during the first few weeks of the league, but now it's on?

lol i know right, way too much to ask. ha!

the all star setting is whats easy, if it was on Superstar i would be in the middle of the pack thats for sure.

yeah, the tuners do change the game, but this last patch is what messed up stuff in general. the feel, the puck bouncing etc. terrible! thing is with tuners, prior to the season starting you can pick on you want to use. but are stuck with it forever. so to get the changes, we had to leave it on most recent. this cant be adjusted once the league is started.

as far as hybrid icing.. i was wondering when anybody would notice it! LOL. it was turned on after the 1st sim, so its been on for 2, 3, 4, 5. i wanted to turn that on prior to week 1 and forgot. its not perfect hybrid, but it works pretty well for what we doing.

yah, i knew something changed - i thought the hybrid icing came in with a tuner update, didn't know it was something that you controlled.

and for the tuners, it sucks that you can't find a tuner you like and run with that. i think the first week or two played the smoothest, now it feels like the game took a step back a little.

Fleury's picture sure does show up a lot on the NHL.com's league leaders stats, must be a fluke.

Not sure if its my team or some recent turner updates but the wheels have fell of in Montreal. 3 loses against the CPU with only one snipe in 3 cpu games....Team is going downhill quick since PK went down

updating the stats and standings page now..

some good stuff going on guys, good to see us get this far etc. lets keep it going!

still trying to find 2 owners for the Atlantic!

the playoffs will open up on 12/25. we were a week off, but no biggie.

then we will have all the off season stuff.

how long after the playoffs should it take us for off season moves etc?

advance every night until we get to the start of the season? that way guys can check team, make offers, etc.

thoughts?

also, we will clean house as well. if guys want to be a part of this and stay on auto pilot, thats fine. but ill have to hear from them. if not, they gone.
