Shop Player - no mood impact?

dodgerblue88 · 07-25-2024, 01:46 PM

In previous versions, if I would shop a player their mood for Transactions would take a hit. In 25, I have been able to shop players without seeing any change to their mood. I think this might be a bug, can anyone else confirm if they're seeing the same?

I noticed it too awhile back but I kind of like it honestly. It does a better job of simulating that maybe not every player knows exactly what's going on. It might work best if it had a random effect to simulate press leakage or something along those lines. Maybe sometimes it would get out and a player would get pissed, sometimes not.

My first thought when reading the OP was I hope it's a design decision for the reason you have given here. I didn't really like the player knowing straight away that he had been shopped, but I took it as the way the game dealt with the issue in an abstract way. If it is by design then a random leak with the player emailing you with a "I heard you're shopping me around, is that true?" message would be a nice touch.

Yeah for sure. I'd love more interaction (as GM) with players/coaches/owner via messaging that affects the game somehow. I don't know what exactly in total but some "more stuff" lol would be neat. Also for sure making the Winter Meetings "a thing" like it is IRL (again I wish I knew what exactly so I could provide better ideas but alas...) would be really cool but I'll take that over to the wish list thread lol.

I'm also noticing that player mood is less sensitive to demotions as well. I wonder if the whole personality system is bugged at the moment?
