VGF Hockey Idea (Perhaps Lame)

No matter what you added the points to, when you added 75 total points you could not boost up any more stats. It made your players overall rating lower, and depended on their stats throughout the season to advance.

Yea, I understand, and I think that would be the best thing to do.

I haven't looked at the screen shots yet, I'll probably just pop '07 into my PS2 and see for myself. I thought you were only allowed a certain amount of points to add. When I made a few players, I would have made everything 99, but I didn't (I'm assuming it was because I couldn't).

If you can create a player with maximum points, there should be a cap. If not, a cap should not exist. Irish, if you wouldn't mind doing the actual recording and creating, that would be perfect, as I don't have a capture card. I could organize everyone and what they want, along with the list of names and which team and send it to you.

I didn't expect people to be interested in this, but if you are, make it clear and I'll start editing my first post with a list to see who we have. From there, we can determine if more than one team is to be made and we can start picking players and all that good stuff.

I wouldn't mind participating in this, but I only have Gretzky '06, Faceoff '03, and NHL 2K7. Plus I have no money and I'm trying to save for a lift kit on my truck (which costs about $1500).

What happens when we don't have enough players to make up an entire team?

[Scuba Steve]

Mag, you wouldn't need a game. Irish would set the teams once they have been decided and he would record and upload them.

If we don't have enough people to make up one team, I figured we could make random create random players to fill in the empty spots, depending on what positions are left.

So your saying, make a team up of VGF members and see how we do?

[Scuba Steve]

In a nutshell, yes. Irish would create the team(s) after I have compiled a list of everything needed, then he would record and upload the videos of the team(s) as they progress. The games would be PS2 controlled.

I would be interested only if there is a cap, if there is no cap, everyone would be 99 and it would be pointless.

[Scuba Steve]

When is the last time you played NHL '07? I already stated when creating a player you are only allowed a certain amount of points to add to your player. If you can add as many points as possible, for some reason, there will be a cap.

[dansdarkside]

A while ago. And even so I never created a player, I just play the game with my little brother or just played the franchise mode.

And I was going off of this post
