Version 0.9.69 Game Update Now Available (PC and Mac) - Page 3

Seems to be a trade deadline issue, as every trade I try and make, even if it makes monetary sense, it says it will accept, and then you offer trade, and it continuously comes back as we can't take that much money. Trades before deadline worked fine.

The problem with 9-2 happens with Blues over Salary Cap because of to many type All-Star Players that will be solved when we can add Extra Teams and then my Roster will just be he Active Players with a Website or the Assistant before that Date Trade most of the Goalies and others or Players as Unsigned Prospects that Rights were moved to Blues. It shouldn't happen with Salary Cap highest can be.
No problem with Blackhawks only Opening Day signing Free Agents meaning some Players picked off Waivers who could have been Trade and also Trade Niemi when they signed Rick DiPerto and could have sent down Marc Carruth. Already Trade Carl C. For like T.G. Oshie that was claimed on Opening and also Trade Rannta. Also could had just called back up Emery.

When you play 1 season, the playoffs will happen but I doubt you will get too far, I tried and just crashed like crazy. Not getting down on the game or anything but it's what's happening right now.

I'm also curious on why you chose to play 19 minute periods. lol, seems like such a random number

landru22 · 08-29-2013, 11:20 PM

I ran a test using a custom league. One of the things I noticed that was at the amateur draft, players were coming from the same league I had just created. It would be equivalent to NHL teams drafting players from other NHL teams instead of from the amateur ranks. Is this because there are no amateur leagues in a custom league?

BTW, I also noticed the no playoffs thing that others have seen, I'm not sure if it was because I eliminated the round of 16 and that somehow caused the playoffs not to happen. On my second attempt (the first attempt eventually crashed and I was right back to Sept 1 again when I reloaded the game) I brought back the round of 16 and the playoffs did occur (though I'm not sure the matchups were correct, but I won't get into that here).

Thanks for all of your hard work, guys. This will be AWESOME when all the little problems get ironed out.

It's a bug that in the first year, for some reason, it skips the playoffs

Same here, just can't start the game since installing that patch

anyone can help?

The game seems nice, but I have a few questions:

Since potential is visible, why would I need to use scouting? Also, why would I draft/sign/trade for players with a low potential rating?

The historical game seems nice. However I started a few 1992 games and the players are always getting different potential. How come? For an example I had Lindros given everything from 7,5 to 9, when he should be near the absolute max.

The rating is biased/imprecise at the newly generated players. Your scouts help to lower the level of error there.

ricosuave · 08-30-2013, 05:20 PM

whenever i try and start a historical game, it loads up to 2% and then just hangs there forever

has anyone else experienced it?

specifically, i was trying to play the 1990 calgary flames.

I've got to Feb. 14 of the first year before it continues to crash. Anyone know how to fix? Thanks!

I always took it that your scouting team is rating the players potential so it flucuates and just because you have him as a 9 doesn't make it so.

Just out of curiosity... what leagues do you have turned on?

mgom27 · 08-30-2013, 08:20 PM

Another is if your over the Salary Cap on Opening Day and have Assistant sign Players for you can't sim past only if you resign will it keep going on so if you want to do Active Players who have played for Blackhawks be on Blackhawks to better resign before Opening Day or you be over Salary Cap but if just add the Active Players who are not with Blackhawks anymore who were on either Stanley Cup Team you will go past.

It we could expand Team budget then Teams might not be over cap?

Macca · 08-31-2013, 05:22 AM

can not the game to start a new game
everytime i do it gets to 100% and stops responding and then closes

ChrisLee · 08-31-2013, 12:13 PM

I have noticed that some players have the wrong caphit.
For example, Letangs new 8 year $7,25m/year deal will not be in effect until the 2014-2015 season. His caphit for this season is $3,5m.
The same goes with Malkin, $8,7m this season and $9,5 2014-2015.

dejaqwho · 08-31-2013, 05:37 PM

If only the developer didn't spend time working on Historical leagues/Custom leagues, just concentrated on the NHL we might have a decent game on release. Now the AI is going to be awful on release day, and even some contract/trading issues as well.

dave1927p · 08-31-2013, 09:26 PM

Just an observation, but what is this obsession of OOTP in putting the East on the left hand side. WE . West should be on the left and East on the right. OOTP needs to change that default as well.

I tend to agree. I think the Historical aspects should have waited until the engine/interface was in better shape, but there must be reasons for dong it this way.

I agree, I'm sure things like historical league/custom leagues are interesting to some, but I will never touch either. I think it would have been better to get a solid working foundation of a current day NHL sim and then add in the other stuff. As it is now it seems like we have 3 broken modes instead of one working mode. Most of us cannot get through more than a season or 2 in any of these modes.
