Association Playoffs restarting themselves

TerrenceJesus08 · 05-05-2017, 09:43 AM

This may be one of the nastiest bugs I have seen in this game. For both of my leagues I am playing, the association playoffs restart after a quit the game.

For example, I play one round and advance to the next round. When I quit and restart the game, the association playoffs revert and think it is in the first round again, the reschedule the games as if they didnt happen. The association playoff screen also clears. So teams end up with their first round games rescheduled plus the 2nd round games that were originally scheduled.

I would have thought somebody had reported this by now, at least for me it basically killed my game.

Hope you guys can fix it

I did report it already. I hate it. It happens when you have double elmination or round robin formats. And it's not just when you quit the game. I sim through my games and it happens. Sometimes they even schedule double headers!

The work around is to stick to single elimination format until hopefully it's fixed. Regular playoffs are unaffected.

The association playoffs don't work for me either. Everything reverts back to some default that I can't change. Example, I have 3 leagues associated with each other. I've setup the playoffs to have League A play League B with the winner moving on to play League C. But OOTP keeps reverting back to B playing C first. It basically kills my game too.

Alright, found the issue with this. Yes, it looks like if you leave and return during an association playoffs, they may get confused and reset. The fix should be in the next patch.
