A Question About the Potential Rating...

[Epidemik]

I so get it.

It's a Max, granted he has continuous favorable seasons stats wise

[St. Francisco]

Nothing you quote there Aso said that the potential is the highest rating the player can achieve,

Yeah, it actually gives us all the info...saying it's a max rating similar to Head Coach. Which means that the potential rating is the highest OVR rating a player can achieve. I also take this to mean that a player's potential rating will NEVER change.

Although the fact that you won't be able to see the rating of guys not on your team is nice.

[DoubleDeuce]

When we create players, can we edit potential ratings? If so, what if we make their potential a 40 and their overall a 99. What would happen then?

[St. Francisco]

i highly doubt that potential is a prediction of rating

Well then you're fucking retarded.

[Saluki]

Ok, someone lay this out for me.

I've got a guy who is 62 OVR, and let's say his potential rating in 80 OVR. Does that mean that no matter how many great years this guy has, he will NEVER EVER EVER go above 80 OVR? Or does this potential rating change over time?

Also, is the potential rating viewable for all players? If so, isn't that almost like cheating? You can pretty much identify every single bust.

You can only view potential rating for your team in the franchise.

[Golden Taters]

Well then you're fucking retarded.

I think he ment that he doesnt think potential rating is the overall value of the recruit will end up being not what potential effects.

Im excited to see all the potential does anyone know if their coming out with an NFL Head Coach 10'

[Saluki]

I think people need to stop trying to answer a question they don't know anything about, just wait till it comes out and see. If potential is the max rating they can reach, that means Peyton Manning will have a 99 potential rating since thats as high as he can go and he wont get any better, when u think about it, it doesn't make sense that they would change it, so stop jumping to conclusions

A black hole will form and the universe as we know it will cease to exist..
