Player Progression in Be a GM

[Ether092887]

Is there player progression/player training in Be a GM this year? I looked everywhere in the menus and couldn't find it.

I guess the real question is whether (and how) players progress. Has anyone simmed a few seasons to test it out?

Simmed a few just to check it out. It seems the 4.5 star and up players tend to take 2 years at most to be NHL ready, about one more to be a good player and they progress slowly from there based on performance(I think).

Of course this is given that they perform well and get experience at their current level. I simmed and forgot that I had Jaden Schwartz scratched at the AHL level and he barely progressed at all.

It seems most players take a similar path, the difference maker being their performance at the current level.

Well that's good to hear! They should progress faster/slower based on how the perform

Progression this year is awesome! I drafted a 5 star potential player, he came in as a 55. I put him on my AHL roster, and with decent stats and playing time he progressed pretty well.

Great news! With apologies for thread-jacking, can you tell me if you can finally see each player's entire career stats, year by year? Thanks!

I was wondering this last night when I was playing. So, there really is nowhere you can go to actually look at progression this year? To see what ratings increased, and in what area's the player got better? Last year you could select a training area for them too coudlnt you? Like offensive, athletics, or defensive? Or something like that, to focus their progression on certain sets of attributes? Maybe I just can't find it.

I guess as long as players still actually progress, that's good. I was wondering. I'm sure they did, just don't know where to look to see it.

IG: Into the nitty gritty of franchise mode… I’m a New York Rangers fan and have a certain pride for how Henrik Lundqvist has managed to turn himself into one of the league’s finest goalies after being drafted so low. How do you go about incorporating that kind of surprise progression into the game and its draft system?

Gurn Sumal: Player Progression has been completely re-written this year for NHL 13. The new system allows players to have a target they grow to but not every player grows at the same pace. You can have late bloomers, early growers and players that grow at a constant pace. Players can also surpass their targets so that a late draft pick can really become that diamond in the rough just like Henrik Lundqvist is.

We have also added a feature that was requested by a lot of fans. Statistic based growth will be in NHL 13. This allows players to grow based how they performed in the previous season and gives them an added attribute boost for the next year. With our New player growth and the all-new GM Brain we are providing one the best Franchise modes around.

This is from an article from inc gamers, I can't post the link cause I this account has less then 5 posts.

Hope this helps!

I'm pretty disappointed that midseason progression was removed. That's a real shame.
