MY BAL
For my BAL I chose the speed demon option, lining it with power to create a fast accurate striker, it worked out for the most part in my first years but has encountered some issues as my years progress.
The game play is fun ( minus some less than stellar decision making from teammates) and the extra perks and scenarios in BAL really make you feel like a part of the experience.
The only issue I seem to have is the growth system, which seems to peak far too early and is relatively useless.
I have made 3 BAL characters and all have peaked early, i average a rating of 7.5 a game and have become a leading character in my teams attacking plays. I single handedly gave my country the copa america scoring 7 goals in 4 games and I have played trained to play both CF as well as winger.
Despite all this I seem to be getting no offers, my overall rating has merely risen 4 points in 3 seasons, and the six training points I have allocated to my speed have given me 0 growth in speed, top speed, dribble speed or acceleration in 3 seasons. I have become the leading goalscorer for my current team so my manager has decided to start playing me as an attacking midfielder where I get a overall rating of 28 in the position.
suffice to say the game is fun, but its being ruined by the details, I am even contemplating possibly lowering the difficulty to regular to see if better displays gain me more positives.
