Much more talented prospect?

Hey guys! I just uploaded my ootp 16 game and noted that there was much more talented prospect than former version of the game! I'm not complaning, that's a good thing!

I just want to know if this is a new system that bump the talent but less prospect reach it? I saw numerous guys in my junior feeder league that were 2* potential a month ago and now 5*!

Like those guys:

Seems like it went back to the old system. Thats a shame but hopefully its improved.

I really don't know. Personnaly, I better like to have great potential guys that don't reach their potential... It makes the draft more interesting. But its really a personal opinion. I see much more guys that goes from 4* potential to 2* within a couple of months too

This. It's much more real-life like now.

With that being said, do you recommend to keep the default talent change randomness? I used to set it higher to have more late round gems and early pick bust

Wonder if we'll have large threads about how their 5* player is now a 2* guy .

It's debatable if its more realistic but I'll hold my judgment until I spend more time with the game. I hope its not the old system again but rather the scouts are just flat out wrong in their assessments this time around while massively overrating and underrating prospects.
