Stat Tracking

[Monkeypox]

Haven't been able to see this one answered around, so I thought I'd ask. Does anyone know if there's a good way to track stat changes in WMMA? The spreadsheet system in TEW was awfully hard on the eyes (that white on black grid sometimes gave me a headache), but I can't tell if my workers are improving or declining or, if so, how. It just says "so and so is a mediocre stand-up fighter", leaving it to me to remember if so and so was a mediocre stand-up fighter LAST month, too. Same issues with name recognition and everything else. Is there any equivalent to the TEW system? Is it hiding?

No, there is no equivalent. I don't think WMMA really warrants a stat tracker, as the entire game intentionally shies away from giving exact stats anyway.

I'm thinking that the Blurcat profiles aren't always up to date until that fighter gets a few more fights. Then they'd be able to like, "Oh they aren't just a weak fighter."

Well all the physical stats have a 1-10 rating (effectively) running as follows: Excellent (Best) Fantastic Great Good Decent Mediocre Weak Poor Very Poor Awful (Worst) I've just entered everyone into an Excel Spreadsheet, so at least I've got an easy comparison eg: James Foster is 7,9,7 (+ very exciting) in my stats (ie good standing strikes, fantastic ground and pound, good submissions) and Lefter Oktay is 7,10,6 and quite exciting, therefore it should be a good even match between them. Whereas Tony McCall is 6,6, (nothing mentioned about submissions), so Foster should beat him most of the time.

Now that's interesting, Rob. Would it be possible to get a look at the spreadsheet - even a screenie or something? My own Excel efforts for TEW have evolved over more than 5 years - I'd rather not wait so long to get a good one for WMMA :D

Its not exactly advanced use of excel - but here's a screenshot [IMG]http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd66/rob4590/WMMA.jpg[/IMG] If anyone really wants it - then just pm me and I'll email it to you.

Spredsheet Looks great! - WMMA looks really good - I still have some quesitons about the "fight engine" itself......Does it "sim" accurately.......Haven't done enough play testing to have an opinion on that yet.... I think this spredsheet is very useful. Easily being able to see and get a feel (overview) of each of the fighters within your organization....is somewhat cumbersome right now (IMO). This could definitely help...

It's definitely a huge hastle to look through your fighters to see whose exciting to watch and stuff, because it's just jumbled in his profile and not even in the same place with all fighters.

I am sure most are aware, but for those who aren't and want full profiles... If you go into the view profile of a fighter, then hit Scout, then hit toggle view you get a full narrative breakdown addressing all criteria, as opposed to the front page that only hits on the key points. btw, great game Adam, this is a LONG week waiting...

[James Casey]

I didn't notice that :eek: Will have to take a more comprehensive look at the game with a proper demo - maybe WEFF? Just blitzed through three shows in my game to get a feel for it.
