Pi

[bucfanstamp]

someone said how to go to the performance institute more than once in a week but i forget how to do this. i only want it for training camp so i can up my MLB strength before the season starts. i know the stamina of your player goes down but i can get that back up easy. anyone remember how to do this?

I think you go to the PI, then go to your calender (you may have to click on that days event but not start it), then you can go back to the PI

[bucfanstamp]

yeah i tried that but it didn't work. does it not work for training camp or am i doing something wrong.

The only way I know is to go to the PI on game day. When your done with your PI session you go to your map and select the practice field, then go back to your map select the PI and you should be able to us it again.
I have a quiestion for you. How do you plan on building your stanima back up? When you do this it really knocks your stanima way down. It knock my RB's stanima down like 20 points.

[bucfanstamp]

this is how i'm going to do it...or at least how i think i can do it. just a theory.


if you go to the performance institute it knocks your stamina down by 5. if you go to the PI twice in one week it will go down 10 right? BUT when you practice your stamina goes up by 4. what i propose to do is to go to the PI only twice in one week, then the next week don't go at all and just do the practices. this way your net drop in stamina for 2 weeks is only 2. so if you start out with 99 stamina because you haven't gone to the PI in a while, theoretically at the end of your 16 games, you should have a stamina of about 83. this i'm comfortable with, because i only want to do this for one season. after the season is over, your pick up alot of stamina in training camp and throughout the next year so it will all come back.


for all this to work i'm banking on my guess that having more added points for one game is better. Ex: if you do well in the game you prepare for, the more points that you have from the PI the more points that will stay on your player from week to week.


what do you all think about this concept? stupid? good idea to try out? any input is welcomed...

[johnnyhonda]

I tryed the same thing with my RB. It was great for on game but that was it. See the points you get from the PI don't stay with you character for long. Mine only stayed for a week. After the week is up I went right back to where my abilities were.


The whole stamina thing, before I tryed it my stanima was at 86, after I tryed going to the PI twice in one week it dropped to 55. It realy sucks the life out of your player. But if you think it will work for you try it. All I know is that I'll never go to the PI twice in one week again.

[bucfanstamp]

yeah i see your point,.,,but after going twice how did it drop 31 points? mine only drops by 5 each time.

[johnnyhonda]

Maybe it was a glitch in the game or something. I swear man it happened. It really sucked to it took me the rest of the season to build my stanima back up. It could be that I used him alot in my games too. I would give him the ball 20 to 25 times a game for an average of 260 yrds. Plus I'd give him 5 rec for and average of 145 yrds. I'd only take him out for like 5 or 6 plays a game.

I don't have this character any more my memory card got sick or something and scwered up the file some how. So, I started a new sstar as a QB. I didn't like it at first, but I'm stating to get use to being a QB.

[bucfanstamp]

that will be my next sstar. i'm going to retire my MLB, and HB in their 10 years probably. then i'll go with either a QB or DE.

[johnnyhonda]

The next player that I create is going to be a HB. Only this time I'm going to start in NCAA 06, so that I have more control over what he looks like and hopefully get picked higher in the draft.
