How many ABL games do you play?

krildog · 08-13-2009, 10:03 AM

I know that playing ABL games is important both in terms of scouting players and acquiring extra points, but how many games is a realistic number to play? Right now, I'm trying to play the games that feature players on my target list and that's it (I'm just going with the default schedule it gives you). I figure if I see each player at least once, that should be enough. Am I wrong?

I never play ABL games, it's simply too much for me because I always go for realistic stats (which means longer halves, unless you want cpu to rush his shots).

Recruiting gets easier in a few years anyway, some 4 star guys are simply ignored by bigger schools.(75+, mostly juco). Basically you can get these guys even with terrible schools.

I rarely play the entire game.
But I play at least 3 games for each player on my target list.

I can get a pretty good feeling for how players play by looking at things like their height / weight & scouted attributes.

I play them all with 1 min quarters so I can get all the extra recruiting points which works out to a lot. Also it gives you free scouting of all your targets so you know who to keep on your list and who to get rid of. Does anyone know if the recruit attributes' accuracy you unlock after the ABL games are influenced by your scouting rating?

I used to do the 1-minute quarter trick, but then during the long discussion of what caused the season stat glitch, someone mentioned this might be it, so I've stopped doing the ABL (and 2 other things) and so far I haven't gotten the glitch.

Just something to note.

what's the season stat glitch?

I play 2-3 full games(6 minute halves) with each of my main targets. I would hate to get a target I can't play with. I like to go after guys who play to my style, not for best overall. (I play every season game).
