The new ratings system (0-100) or the old (50-100)?
Personally I prefer the old one because I'm not used to the new one. It was really weird seeing guys who were in the 80s go to the lower 70s and in some cases the 60s. I was like :O.
Which do you guys prefer?

i thought the new system of 0 through 100 was better becuase it provided a greater range of ratings. this way, the shitiest players are bustas while the role playas are role playas and the superstars are stars. there is more of a difference between them when compared to that 50-100 shit.

0-100 is a billion times better. More variety between star players and role players.

new ratings all the way.

It honestly took me some time to adjust but I'd have to say that the new ratings system allows for a more realistic approach to a player's abilities. Now, it they'd only add more categories to the ratings I'd be truly delighted!

hmm, i could have sworn i have answered this before, but whatever i will again. 0-100 is far superior.

i like 50-99 only cuz I'm used to it, but 0-99 is way better, so there won't be like 50 people with the same overall rating

0-100 is much better, average players don't get 80+ ratings that way.

also, overall rateing does not instantly mean better. i remember with my dynasty melo was rated 63 overall but always outperformed my rookie who was 71 overall. now if i made a trade they would always slap the rookie at the starting 3 but i would just go back and put melo back in. use overall only as a starting point, use the real stats to determine who is better. prince was damn good in 2004 even with his lame overall rateing.

Was I the only one to make changes where I saw fit? I didn't like the idea of having Melo and Bron rated lower than J Rich so I raised them both to a 73, do you think I went too high for them?

LeBron is an 80 in Andrew's latest patch, so I don't think you did

i like the 0-100 rating system better.more variety. but has any 1 played inside drive. the game overall is pretty poor and i dont think mircosoft is making another 1(mainly cause every 1 buys live) but its rating system is much more deep. u can set tendiices. so weather there more likely to fade away then not or wether or not the lay it up or dunk it(dosent depenmd on their rating) and the create a player options are better too. wat do u think?

i can only speak for myself but i personally never change rateings. i always play the game out of the box as they sent it. are some rateings off? sure thing, but also alot of the rateings can be up for debate. 2 people can have completly different opinions about a players shooting skills, or he offensive rebounding ability. this is specially true when it comes to bench players who dont get alot of minutes. you will get people who insist that with enough minutes the player would dominate while others say there is a reason he dont get the minutes.
so basicly i always play the game the way i bought it. maybe i am wrong in the eyes of others to do this, but i always have fun with the game so i it dont much matter who is right/wrong to me.
