Markus makes changes to the development curves to better reflect the fact that minor league statistics should play a bigger role in development.

Development is defined 1st as "talent ratings" (which will now react more favorably to statistical results) and then actual "ratings" which are driven by talent.

Are these changes to the development curves confirmed as true for this latest patch or is this your opinion Henry ? If this is true, I think this is an awesome improvement because the old system was frustrating and a bit unrealistic.

Old system: I thought Talent development has always been totally random (IE Talent Increases occur randomly- Player A w/ good stats has same chance of a Talent Increase as Player B who has horrendous stats).

This was my initial reaction too when I read the readme.txt for the new patch.
