This thread is specifically for discussing the official Rugby 08 MegaUpdatePatch roster and it's development.
I am currently researching the data needed to authenticate the accuracy of the MUP roster but it is a long development and i figured that although i am the senior roster editor, it would be good to have some input from others about what you think should be included in the roster. This is not an FAQ, but more of a suggestions box.
Here are the 3 key points of what this roster will achieve:
1. Accurate team and player stats/ratings where possible and a very high degree of player likeness/appearance.
2. Accurate team and player bios/profiles where possible to ensure a high degree of player likeness. This includes Date of Birth, Positions, Weight, Height and other features.
3. Accurate squads and line-ups that will be accurate to who is actually playing in the team currently.
I am making progress quickly in all three areas and this will be realised in the next version of the MUP roster (European Clubs only version).
I will provide regular updates and progress reports in this thread to show where i am and what stage i am at regarding the roster editing.
Your suggestions are very welcome. Please post them here.
The things i'd like to see ideally are players being suggested to be rated higher, as they are becoming good players and deserve recognition in the roster. This would include players like Andrea Marcato, Danny Cipriani, Francois Trinh Duc and up-and-coming players and if you could include a ratings guide, this would help greatly.
The best way for me to read this data is the following:
Name: A Player
Position(s): Scrum-Half
DOB: 17 7 83
Best Skills: (i.e goalkicking, hooking, line-out etc)
Rating: 85
Ideally, i'd rate no higher than 92 and no lower than 68. Otherwise the gap in skills in the actual game is very bad if they meet in a situation, like a 1-on-1. Please be sensible with this, but i will edit the stats accordingly.
Here is a quick guide to what the ratings levels i use and an example of typical players in that category: the ratings are based on current form and actual ability.
1st Tier - 88-92% - example, Fourie Du Preez - 90
2nd Tier - 81-87% - example, Alesana Tuilagi - 85
3rd Tier - 65-80% - example, Fosi Pala'amo - 79
Also, i'd like to have a star player for each team, even poor teams, like Namibia. I will welcome suggestions for star players, but only a maximum of 2 per team, one for the forwards and one for the backs. I will post a definitive team list soon so that we can start researching who would be the best players to pick will be.
Thankyou for your time, with your help we can get this roster finished quicker.
Please post any suggestions or queries here.. apart from the obvious question.. when is it going to be ready.. i can't determine that now, but hopefully in about 2-3 weeks time.
