4.5 or 4.6

I think we can stay on 4.5 if I ask JDB.

Yes we can stay at 4.5 if you message JDB at end of season. Please everyone, let’s do the right thing and stay at 4.5, after all the hard work and time spent on finally figuring out this code! Lol :)

Do we have like a 'patch notes' or run-down of what all changed in 4.6 to make a more informed decision?

The short version is this:

Speed has been tinkered with to make slower players more viable, but other issues have arisen making passing offense virtually non-existent. The punt block exploit, along with other speed-related issues that we've made rules against in this league, has been allegedly solved.

So you will only be able to effectively run the ball or throw short passes on offense in the new patch. Longer passes result in sacks or interceptions at a ridiculous and unplayable rate.

I am incredibly biased against this patch because in the current form you can both run and pass effectively, and while there are some game-breaking code exploits that get used, as soon as setherick and infinityontrial figure out the new ones we will be right back to where we are today with no passing.

Its almost worth running this poll again BUT WITH bgedgerly's blurb above, attached to it. Knowledge is good. Some players may not see what we're getting in to with 4.6.

The following is supposition: If we even go one spin into this new season under 4.6, and change our minds - i.e., decide that we want to go back. We can't. We would have to wait until season's end. Once one spin happens, we are locked in.

Another point to be made is this:

There are going to be a LOT of owners who don't want to play 4.6, and if we stay 4.5 we might be able to grab a few of them to fill the league back up.

Great point!! This might sell it for me to stay on 4.5.

I will request JDB to stay on 4.5.

My game version says I’m on 4.6 now. So obviously JDB hasn’t rolled back this league to 4.5 yet. Is there a limit to when this takes place or a point of no return?

I really hope it can get rolled back.

I might be wrong, but I think JDB had to wait until the previous season's FINAL SPIN (to happen) before he can roll it back. Pretty sure all the files from the season have to be "sewn up", so the roll-back doesn't happen simultaneously with that spin.
