OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - I'll tell you what's not working recently: Rule 5 Draft

Ok my rule 5 draft is back to normal BUT after I started clicking the "Apply Changes Now" button in the AI settings menu which updates the ratings if you are using AI Evaluation. I made sure I clicked the button before december 1st which is when teams set their 40 man roster to protect players and also on the day of the rule 5 draft.

In fact last season there were 35 picks in the draft (overkill) with 3-4 teams selecting selecting 5-6 players each...Maybe I hit that button once too often.

So it does seem as if the recent AI changes in the patches made the AI smarter (or not) in this area of the game.

I think the problem is that the OVR doesn't get updated as much as it should which may also relate to the problem that people have with the OVR in the scouting not matching what it says on the profile page.

Aslo before last season, I only hit the change now button once which was on rule 5 draft day which resulted in my usual 7-15 players picked in the draft like It did earlier this year.
