Idea/is this possible? - FIFA-like OVR rating

[eplekrar]

Just had a crazy idea... Is it possible to implement a simple overall rating in FM? Similar to the one the have in FIFA, going from 1-100?

What about using the Current Ability rating, and making each ability point count twice?

Let me illustrate:

CA = Current ability, a hidden stat currently in FM

OVR = proposed overall rating

CA - OVR

1 - 1

2 - 1

3 - 2

4 - 2

5 - 3

6 - 3

7 - 4

8 - 4

9 - 5

10 - 5

49 - 25

50 - 25

51 - 26

52 - 26

99 - 50

100 - 50

117 - 59

118 - 59

119 - 60

120 - 60

199 - 100

200 - 100

hope you get the idea...

Cheating? Probably, but so what?

If you want to cheat, use the available tools to do so. Why would you want that in the normal game?

It's a good idea and easily inplemented but not something I want! Real life manager doesn't even have attributes like we do. They go on reports and watching players perform..

I'm even a littlebit uncertain about the star rating but it's not gamebreaking so I'm ok with it..

Already had one discussion today on a simple rating UI that received universal disapproval, as Raniel3 has mentioned if you want to see the true CA/PA values there are tools available to do so but such accuracy doesn't have a place in FM.

It would also fail to account for weightless attributes.

Thought I closed this one, no need for two threads about what is essential the same idea.
