Mr U Rosler Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Hi, I'm doing an Academy Challenge and like to accurately track my players progress. Just had a player go from 115 PA to 59 PA. He did have an injury for 3 or 4 months but never noticed this before and didn't know it was possible. An injury stricken play might not GET TO his PA but I didn't think it actually changed?

herne79 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 In very rare instances PA can drop following a bad injury. Looks like you've just been incredibly unlucky . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 That does seem like to massive drop for such a short time out. Out of interest what was the injury? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrazT Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I have never known a PA drop like this except where there has been a major career ending injury Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I suppose a foot could be smashed enough to all but end a career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
b28937 Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Curious as to how one gets those PA 115 to 59 numbers, is it with an editor or something? No offense but it seems like a cheat, though idk maybe that's encouraged in an "academy challenge" whatever that is (though doesn't seem like much of a challenge if you can hack the database to get hidden numbers).

It is "cheating" by most people's definitions, but can be done either with the official in-game editor or a variety of third party skins and utilities.

FrazT Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Please stop commenting again on cheating- its not relevant to the OP's question and it is up to him how he gets that info.. Stick to the topic please. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vad Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Do you actually mean Potential Ability and not Current Ability? I thought PA was supposed to be static. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe there's an issue with a couple of the third-party tools you can use to view PA which result in it being reported inaccurately. SI have repeatedly stated that PA never goes up, and can only go down due to serious injuries, and this is supported by what the in-game editor shows.

Guest Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 As for PA increases: I'm sure you've all seen your assistant comment on a youngster, saying something along the lines of "Previously I thought he was only going to be a Division I player, but now I think he has the potential to be a top class player for our team". I suppose this is *not* the PA actually increasing, it's only the assistant getting a more accurate reading of what his PA actually is. Right?

HUNT3R Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 It's all the assistant's opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Can also be an overestimation based on recent above par performances or a rapid increase in CA. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpwfos Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Pa and ca of this player was viewed using the editor and I raised it in manually as the reccomended ability rose automatically now all 3 have peaked at 200 kind of wish now I'd kept hold of the player, 200 ca at 19 is crazy he's at Liverpool now they bought him for 36mil with a chance of rising another 7 mil after league appearances of which he has now less than ten to complete for my next pay out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
