Initial Draft / Finances ??'s and OOTP4Demo - 2003 Roster ??'s

kilroy · 01-31-2003, 11:17 PM

Hey guys, I haven't seen these questions on this board, but forgive me if I repeat any.

1) If I have an 'initial draft' (ie: reset - release all - draft) using real rosters, how does the financials work out at the end of the season? For example, I could 'draft' $70 million in players and only have $40 million in revenue. What happens at the end of the season?

2) On a related note, if my team is 'in the red' (ie: budget shortfall), what happens? Am I prevented from signing extensions or free agents?

3) Finally, how do I install 2003 rosters in the OOTP4 Demo? I have the lastest rosters (12/28/02) but when I check out a player, it only shows career stats up to 2001.

Thanks guys!

1. You could, but you'd lose $30,000,000 and you won't be able to sign or resign anyone.

2. yes

3. can't answer for sure.

Related to 1) and 2), what impact does this have for the CPU? Will the computer spontaneously release some of it's free agents at the end of the season?
