OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Ratings exceeding 80 in 20-80 scale

That's never been the way that OOTP has worked. There have always been ratings that can go beyond the main scale.

The "average" player in the league is what sets the scale, not the outliers. So, the players get rated essentially by how much better/worse they are than the average.

Otherwise, when you get a Babe Ruth or Barry Bonds you are going to get the rest of the league pushed downwards to where hardly anyone looks to be above average.
