Live Start not working.

backspace4353 · 01-07-2020, 09:55 AM

I have tried several times, even uninstalled and reinstalled to see if I can find the problem. Live start says it starts on todays date 01-07-20 however every time I set that up it starts on 9-30-19. What up with that? Can someone help me be able to get it to work right. Thanks in advance.

From the game info on the OOTPXX homepage:

Live start doesn't work past 9-30-19. It is only for regular season play from last season. You will have to wait till OOTP 21.

With that said I hope in the future live start will at least run through the playoffs. Honestly doesn't make sense to me that it stops at the end of the regular season.

Yes that's all I really wanted was to get to the offseason with the playoff results the same as r/l. I also think they should change the statement on the set up page that the first day is 01-07-20 and make it 9-30-19. The r/l day you set it up. It waisted several hours of my time trying to fix something that was not broke before coming to this board to find it out. Thanks for all you fast help on this matter.

Yeah I was disappointed as well. There are some rosters sets that are current with trades just not stats.
