Today, I wanted to mess around with the depth chart in Liberty, just to see what it was all about. I’ve seen it mentioned here and there, but never really dug into it myself.
First, I fired up the game and navigated to the roster section. You know, where all the players are listed. From there, I found the depth chart option. It wasn’t too hard to spot, to be honest.
My First Impression
- It’s basically a list of players for each position, ranked from starter to backup. Pretty straightforward, right?
- I noticed that you can manually change the order, meaning you can put any player in any position on the chart.
So, I started experimenting. I moved some lower-rated players to starting positions, just to see what would happen. I wanted to see if it really impacted their playing time during games. I simulated a few games and, sure enough, the guys I moved up were getting more snaps.
Then, I tried something a bit wilder. I swapped a running back to a wide receiver spot and even put a lineman as a tight end. It was kind of funny, to be honest. The game actually let me do it, which I wasn’t really expecting.
Some Weird Stuff
- In the games I simulated, these out-of-position players didn’t perform too well, which makes sense.
- But it was interesting to see that the game mechanics actually adjusted to these changes.
After messing around for a while, I reset everything back to the default settings. I’m not sure how often I’ll actually use this feature in my regular gameplay, but it was cool to see what’s possible. It definitely adds another layer to the game if you’re into that sort of detailed management.
All in all, it was a fun little experiment. The depth chart in Liberty is more flexible than I thought it would be. If you haven’t played around with it yet, give it a shot. You might discover some interesting things like I did!
