Player's overall rating ?

Post by Oil Country »

Is there any other way to see player's total value but calculate them? I mean that same system EA Sports NHL-games have, each player have some number that evaluates skills in the game ( perfect players have 99 etc.). It would make playing faster if I don't need to calculate every players skills to compare them.

If you're playing 2007, there is an alternative rating system in the options.

No, EHM, and most other management sims, don't use overall ratings. You'll have to evaluate players skill-by-skill.

That's kind of the thing about these games. The skills might go up and down. You are supposed to try and find stars and bargains.

I usually go after good overall players with pace.

I agree. Breaking players down to just one all-encompassing number goes a bit against the spirit of management sims.
