While GM Connected is first of all a GM league, I assume most people want to actually play the games against people.

Its not just one person.
I feel 4g a game on All-Star is easy for me as well and I would bet there is at least 4-5 others who would agree.

Remember how hard it was to score in NHL 12 when it first came out? Or how hard ANY game in general was the first week you played it? Yes some people might struggle the first few weeks but then once they get the hang of it...open season on the AI. Its best to start high and get better versus starting low losing a few then tuning the AI for the rest of the month. How can anyone ever expect to get better when they don't challenge themselves?

HUT was designed for playing games against people, as was versus and EASHL. GM Connected was designed just like its FIFA counter part to be a management mode with the option to play. I have no problem with people playing but if the game is on easy mode I am not interested. I don't take time building a team and strategies to have a guy use the drag wrister short side move 15 times a game with a 3rd liner.(and yes it does still work).

I know its not possible to make everyone happy but there has to be a point where we meet in the middle. At least 6-10 people in this thread don't want people playing and want a Sim only league yet we conformed to having people be able to play. Now the people who want to play the games want the game on easy mode so they can trash the people who want to manage and sim? Seems like a pretty one way street there.
