True, the tactics heavily influence the team ratings. But I was asking how the GE uses the team ratings after they have been calculated (with the tactics and everything). So, they have been calculated, we have all 6 values.

Lets take two cases:
- offensive flow is calculated at strong (8 - high)
- offensive flow is calculated at inept (4 - low)

Now, we have a play:
A Center with mediocre (5.00) passing finds a teammate who then takes a shot. The passing of the C is exactly 5.00 (sub-level included)
If everything was the same:

- The quality of the shot will be higher in the first case.
- The quality of the shot is equal in both cases.

The Game manual suggests that we should have a higher shot quality in the first case.
That might be implying that the offensive flow value is used as a coefficient to adjust for that mediocre (5.00) passing skill of the C? So that passing skill is adjusted at mediocre 5.41 (I'm just throwing random higher number for the sake of the argument).

And is this how it works for rebounding as well (my earlier post).

My thinking was that the TR value are given by the player's skills with tactics and are part of the initial calculations of coefficients (the intial calculations would also include also the venue, PR specialty, enthusiasm, the attitude, GPD...). Then those coefficients are used in the GE for the subsequent calculations - basically the player's skills matchups in the events we see in the play-by-play. You are saying that TR are only a statistical category you see after the game in the box score, did I understand you correctly?

My opponent played outside isolation and I prepared for outside focused.
So why I got the red x next to outside focus?

From the Game Manual:

Isolation offenses: The team will try to find their best offensive player and clear out an area for him to create his own shot. There are two types of isolation offenses (both are considered as having a balanced focus by the GDP):

Question regarding supporter. My supporter is running out here in a month and I wasn’t planning on reuping just the second team option.

My question is what happens to things like HoF where have I spent time to enter historic highlights to players and such. Does all that come back once I would reup the supporter down the road? Same for example the bookmarks?

Got it :)

Questions about the Merchandise revenue:
1. Team Sales. It is affected by the current League standings, isn't it? Would winning a TV game or a win vs the rival in the previous week show a bump in the Team sales section in the next week or this is reserved for the Attendance formula only?
2. Homegrown & Locals. It is calculated from the proportion of the total salary of local (and drafted) players to overall team salary, isn't it? If you don't make any roster changes, would this revenue stay fixed during the season?
3. Player Jersey Sales. It is based on individual performances for qualified players (pts/game, rebs/game, ast/game and all other statistical categories to a lesser degree for players that had appeared in at least 50% of the league games). Is this correct? Also, the averages in Cup games are irrelevant?
4. In the League main page, we can see the top 10 players in each major statistical category, but that doesn't mean a player ranked 11th in scoring will sale as many jerseys as a player ranked 30, does it?
5. Does the player salary mater for the jersey sales? If a player with 5k salary is leading the league in points per game, would they sell as many jerseys as a scoring leader with 200k salary?
6. A newly aquired player who was qualified for the jersey sales in his previous team will carry its (qualified) status in the new team?
7. The level of your PR is irrelevant for the Merchandise revenue?
