@Tyrants_RBA Nice.

@RCFAeagles @RBULH2H GG! 💔

@RCFAeagles @RBULH2H They don't call me Mr. 1 Point for nothing.

Thunderbears by 1.

I had no idea this was a thing to do.

Listen up, Retro Bowl Coaches, I'm looking for anonymous honesty!

The game is set to display lower star free agents based on the difficulty level. I just tested it again, and going from Extreme to a refresh in Easy showed 10 of the 18 free agents higher and 8 being the same.

New Beta is out, and several fixes are fortunately included.

Appreciate Simon's editorial use of "unnecessary" about the hit to energy in Extreme mode 😂. I would have used "Brutal" or "Bewildering" - and I'm glad he heard all of us!

Bye-bye to the 5th down CPU plays too!

@RBCoachHotRoute @IF_retrobowl @retro_bowl What was that at the 44 yd line?! 🤯

[Retro Bowl QB1 @RetroBowlQB1]

@RBCoachHotRoute @IF_retrobowl @retro_bowl Haha I was wondering how come I wasn't able to do that!

[Retro Bowl QB1 @RetroBowlQB1]

@RBCoachHotRoute @IF_retrobowl @retro_bowl That quick left-right juke move at :04 is something else! 🤩

[Retro Bowl QB1 @RetroBowlQB1]

I find the wide range AI gameplay based on difficulty to be super frustrating. With this, at least you can expect the same everytime.

[Retro Bowl QB1 @RetroBowlQB1]

What if instead of AI playing differently based on difficulty level...

Easy: Player traits can be maxed to 10/10.
Medium: Player traits capped to 8/10.
Hard: Player traits capped to 6/10.
Extreme: Player traits capped to 4/10.

For your team only. Doesn't apply to opponents.

[Retro Bowl QB1 @RetroBowlQB1]

I don't like feeling like the work I've put in leveling players is not being rewarded.

Granted, I'm playing on Extreme

Tough to find balance between the two (player feeling powerful/rewarded and playing on max difficulty).

[Retro Bowl QB1 @RetroBowlQB1]

Just played a few games on the new Beta, on Extreme.

I agree with this. My players catch and are immediately tackled without the opportunity to swipe (a skill). Rarely is a tackle broken.

[The Retro Coach (𝘞𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘛𝘩𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘴𝘰𝘯) @TheRetroCoach]

@rutgersrb @retro_bowl The gameplay feels different, my players couldn't get away like before.

Anyone else want to respond?

[Retro Bowl QB1 @RetroBowlQB1]

I did find limited success by "double juking" in the same direction to dodge some tackles.

The ability for defenders to tackle you is much greater. Feels like they have a longer "reach" and you have less time to react.

@rutgersrb @retro_bowl Even if your player is moving up or down in a juke, the diving defender will stop him in his tracks. Not many ball carriers will make it out of bounds as easily as before.

On these two plays, first dive tackle missed but slowed my player down. Second play, dive stopped him cold.

[Retro Bowl QB1 @RetroBowlQB1]

The new ball is my favorite and should be the default, imo!

[Retro Bowl @retro_bowl]

Incoming update v1.4.49...

[Retro Bowl QB1 @RetroBowlQB1]

@RBRoughnecks You need to see it thrown, but here it is.

[Retro Bowl QB1 @RetroBowlQB1]

@SpringbokRetro Probably a bug.

These "tackles" are likely just randomly generated numbers anyways. The game is not simulating every play and tracking all stats.
