*Player Progression: Player Tags

[firstfray]

The lower level tags are fun, unique and relatively small impact. The high level tags tho.... most people will probably end up taking the increase an attribute cap by 5 and throw it on speed. And I know in DDSPF16 there was some wonkiness with players playing OOP. Not sure if there's anything to a similar degree with DDSPF21 but the out of position tag might lead to some game breaking players

All around, I think these are great and fun ideas! Would be hard to implement some (especially the sim related one) due to how the backend works though.

I think its important to remember that these are just ideas that can continually be improved upon. I also think a +5 to the cap is too much, but is +1? or even +2?

Yeah for sure. I think a +1 would be much more reasonable and feel a bit more balanced with the other options that it wouldn't make everyone jump at it.

I think these are super cool! I love the first three tiers of ideas and think they can all be balanced with time.

The only early one that is a little too much is adding a year of position experience as that has a very noticeable effect on sim performance.

In T4, a free position swap is too overpowered and takes away a lot of the effort of teambuilding.

In T5, position less football would go against too many sim rules we have in place currently and make balancing even tougher for the sim balance team. Stat cap would need to be like by 1 or something I think. Regression stopping is always a tough sell. Giving people 50 TPE to switch teams is a little crazy.

Overall, I love the idea and think that it should be something implemented, especially if its giving bonuses for legaue money rather than TPE/sim enhancement for a player.

I love these ideas keep it up!! Especially the 50 TPE one for switching teams.

These are great but I’m sure they’d have to be tinkered with to get it to be balanced but it adds a little bit more of an rpg element to the league.

100%, Tier 5 is kinda crazy because it's for the max players and rewarding getting to the peak of a career, I think definitely this is the part that needs actual number tuning while the rest of them (bar maybe the player exp one) are pretty innocuous in terms of what happens in the sim.

I think that there is something to be said that of the top level tags being a bit defining and crazy specifically as a reward for a max level career is something I do enjoy, but understand if my off-the-dome tuning isn't actually doable with balance.

I tried to make sure that the tags wouldn't actually require anything new in sim rather than increasing attributes or doing TPE stuff that already happens with updaters as is.
