Taj, I don't know why that file you're looking at says a bonus of 500 and 1,000, but that's not what it says in game (and that's a ********ly huge bonus as a great visit without the skill is 1,000 points so that'd double a visit). RT gives a bonus of 100/200/400 for the different levels (and that 400 point bonus is huge as is). It's easy to verify this in game.

• Start a new dynasty with a lvl 20 coach but don't spend points.
• Sim until you have guys ready for a visit.
• Click on the "visit" to see how many base points you'll get, but don't set up the visit.
• Back out and buy RT1.
• Go back to the recruit and see that your base visit is 100 points more.
• Rinse and repeat with RT2 and RT3 if you feel it's necessary.

The difference between a normal visit and a RT3 visit is very big and can be the difference between a good visit that nearly locks out your opponent before he can have a visit (but still allowing that visit) and signing that recruit before he can visit anyone else.

In the description of RT, it states "you will receive a bonus of +XYZ points the week a recruit visits your school". You can even see this straight from EA's website where it has level 1 at 250:

The XYZ points are 250/500/1,000, so according to the description that we read in the game, it's telling us that we get that bonus each week a recruit visits.

But like you said, when you look at a recruit's bonus, it's only going up 100/200/400. I agree that 1,000 is overkill (but obviously when every team has it, the point total is a moot point), but even if it's 1,000 total for the week divided among the players coming, that's not happening either.

EA's website has 250, and in game the description says 250/500/1,000, but the totals just do not add up.

You are misunderstanding. 250/500/1000 means the extra you get each week to spend on all recruits. So say you have 5000 recruiting points. That would indicate 250=5250/500=5500/1000=6000.

That comes from the Opener & Closer skill point. They offer you more points per week on a consistent basis without an on campus visit.

Royal Treatment specifically says bonus points (the automatic numbers you receive per recruit each week for their top 3 pitches). It's not the total accumulative amount of points you receive per visiting week.

Even then, if it did... it's still not happening. The game isn't offering the 1,000 point Royal Treatment points anywhere to visiting recruits.

Could this just mean overall points for a week a recruit visits? Meaning if I have 5000 recruiting points and week 6 I have a recruit visiting I get 5250. Week 7 I have no recruits so I go back to having 5000 recruiting points?

is it worth it to go after a recruit when you are in that -90ish zone but still not cutoff? I always have a hard time wanting to keep 500 in a guy where you are behind, and have to put it all on a visit.
