Re: Bring Back Hidden Bars in LEAGUE MODE
Thanks John for this. I had no idea you could do this. I have messaged Mark about forcing the patch. Waiting for a reply

Now 4 and 5yos will be as good if not better than the older horses even if they don't have full potential. All my cruising burst are 5/ 51/2, and that's in combined

Re: Bring Back Hidden Bars in LEAGUE MODE
so both the flat and combined are on an even playing field is that correct?

Re: Bring Back Hidden Bars in LEAGUE MODE
It's the whole game itself. It gives horses bred for 1m 5f and up (especially jumpers) high cruising burst numbers much more often than shorter bred horses. The higher the distance the more likely a high cruising burst bar. Cruising burst seems way too powerful compared to the other bars.
Non UK games and are at an extreme disadvantage against horses from a combined game save.

My 3yos and this 4yos were inferior to flat training stable 3 and 4yos so the flat game should be on a level playing field with combined. SiriusChill wrote: It's the whole game itself.

Non UK games and are at an extreme disadvantage against horses from a combined game save. I have very good staying chasers and staying hurdlers. The highest crusing burst I have is 51/2 and its a sprinter. I have a lot of 90 and some 95% extra speed bars. Hold up horses perform way better in SO7 than SO6 and even better now that the race running has been improved so not sure cruising burst will be all powerful as it was in SO6

Re: Bring Back Hidden Bars in LEAGUE MODE
I started a new game( just playing for fun) last weekend with my US-OZ schedule and after 3 seasons i breed this horse , the mare was mine and the stallion is a computer horse, not bad speed or cruise . It shows it can be done with a non uk game and combined game.

Re: Bring Back Hidden Bars in LEAGUE MODE
The highest cruising burst I have in my NH stable is 40%. The highest extra speed is 65%. Most of my best NH horses look utterly dreadful, hardly a high bar anywhere to be seen. Indeed if I was culling on bars right now I would be binning horses who have league wins at G1. Anyone wants pictures of some let me know.
My Aussie flat team who I thought would be high are at around the 45% mark, the best has 55%, speed it better and gets to 90%. My US flat game is about the same average is around 45%, highest is 50%. Speed in the 80% range.
My new six season old Irish combined game already has cruising at 65%, speed is lower. Far too early to be making any judgements right now. And I have not yet decided if I am going to abandon successful lines for a while in a effort to improve the bars. But for me the league is wide open again now people are no longer trying to find a needle in a haystack whilst blindfolded.

Re: Bring Back Hidden Bars in LEAGUE MODE
I can't be bothered to start again so if I do worse next season after slowly improving then I'm out. So far I have only played up to 35 seasons in 4 games so I figured I was doing well. The league is an added bonus that keeps me playing once I have dominated the AI. Not interested in playing the stats to play an online league. I don't find the idea of playing hundreds of seasons blindly trying to raise 'bars' appealing, that's for the RPG player, I just like to play the game. Each to his own!
Maybe it will be settled somehow by/or in SO8 if it happens.

They are a just a tool to pass from one game to another when the Real problem was knowing the Bars , thats how u get Super Great horses . Its kind of been proven now with opening the bars up after all this time, they were average horses that looked a lot better. We all got kind of believing that our horses had far better Sprint/Cruise bars than they had and probably stop breeding to computer horses I know i did.
