Training Camps: Pointless?

Postby R-Tistic on Sun Nov 02, 2003 10:29 am

When I first saw that they implemented training camps on here, I was like aww man they really are takin it to the next level!! But when I used them, I noticed that they barely work. I donno if I am adjustin the sliders wrong, and I should focus 100% of one thing, such as offense defense shooting or conditioning...or if i should balance em out. I have tried both, doin 100% on offense once, and one time i did likt 35 25 25 15, and it still barely affected the players. Usually, some players may gain one point in ratings, which is not noticeable at all during gameplay, and many players lost 1 or 2 points in other categories. I think they tried doin somethin different by puttin in training camps, but it doesn't even do much.

Also, when you gain points during the season and you can either do a team workout or individual workout, the results suck there too.

I hear you but I would rather it be like that because if a player that's not a rookie gains like 5 points in one attribute it would make everything messed up. One or two points gained is the right amount for me. But yea, training camp is pretty pointless.

I've stopped doing training camps at all. I find that they just make my player's worse...and why would I spend my dynasty points to do that...

I traded Lebron and Carmelo on my team, but is the training camp the only way to improve them? How do I develop the players? I don't like the training camps bc, yeah, I do lose more points than I add (usually) and the Dynasty Extras show the improvement in one category (i.e. 3PT), but it does not effect my OVRL bc it is temporary (?). Anyway, HOW DO I DEVELOP PLAYERS? Does it happen automatically or do I have to do something? (I've yet to finish my 82-game season).
