Strategies for CPU controlled teams

Fri Apr 01, 2005 3:47 am

Hi everybody!

Just wondering... every time i start a game my strategy is always DYNAMIC. It never is the strategy i pick in previous games in my season (Zone Screens). Is there anyway we set the strategies for each team, so we can have CPU controlled teams playing other strategies than DYNAMIC? Because this makes CPU always play the same way... that ruin´s the game, especially in the CPU assists (always VERY low...)

I use Andrew´s Rosters and Sliders (12 min quarter, Superstar).

p.s. - Andrew, maybe you can edit the dbf and release a roster with all the teams having the right strategies (there is very good post´s about them in this forum).

The strategies don't save game-to-game, so you have to edit them each game. You can switch your controller to the CPU teams to set the strategy and go back, but you have to do that every game.

We can´t save them game-to-game, but last year Andrew managed to get the right strategies to every team, setting them in the .dbf

Maybe he can do the same this year... we wouldn´t need to do the same thing every game... Andrew?

Sure, but I haven't been able to see every team play this year. If someone would like to compile a list of strategies, I should be able to make the appropriate changes in teams.dbf again.

I was wondering how to do the exact same thing with the program db commander. There is a thread about team strategies here but i'll repost it for simplicity. Hopefully it helps.

Seems ok to me... I´ve seen weed manus thread about strategies and i think they are pretty good, much better than the "dynamic for all" strategy...

Maybe you can use this list Andrew. What do you think?

Like I said before, if I've got the info I'm happy to use it. As long as weed_manus is fine with me using that list and giving him credit for it, I'll add it to the roster.
