Not getting scouting reports?

Mattymo · 04-18-2010, 10:21 PM

Are people seeing a over a week going by before getting a scouting report? I ordered a report on an opposing player on 4/30. It's now 5/6 and I've still received nothing. I ordered another report on 5/3 of the same guy and on 5/5 of a different player that's a Free Agent.

Can the scout be over worked? I just don't know if I should try again or just give it more time.

EDIT: and before anyone asks, yes scouting is on

. I've gotten reports on players previously and I always get my scouting report for upcoming series.

Were the players nearby?

No. The player is in Tampa and I'm in Kansas City. Of course the previous scouting report came in one day and that player was in Texas.

Didn't realize that would come into play. I'll give it more time I guess.

Edit: I actually was playing Tampa when I ordered the report the first time.

I'll confess, I don't know for sure anymore if has impact. It may have imagined it, but I thought last year, I waited longer for both international requests and those across the country. Could have been the Sailor Jerry's, too.

Keep us posted!

Just figured I'd give you guys an update.

The original player was Desmond Jennings...after a little over a week went by, I ordered a scouting report for Khalil Greene. I got that report after about 3 days. Then I ordered another Desmond Jennings report and got it two days later. Not sure what the issue was/is.

In a future release it'd be great if there was a screen where we could see pending scouting reports, and an ETA.

I dont know if it is the same for 11 as it was for 10, but in OOTPX I found that if I asked for more than one scouting report at a time, I only received the last requested report.
