*****manager Mode***** - Page 2

Actually I'd like the ability to make as many changes as I'd like in manager mode, as in previous games. This is a serious fault in the game that must be fixed. You don't have to use it if you don't want, but the option to should be there.

I agree Skippy. It should be up to us. If you are tempted to cheat in your own league and you do that would just simply be boring. I know some people might just want to adjust the league to make it interesting to see what happens....No problem whatever the reason.....the option should be there for us to make that decision on our own....Not having the option to modify simply takes away from the game a bit.

I didn't start my career with manager mode, but I *did* turn it on in the first year... I wanted to make sure everything was good to go.

Anyways, with manager mode, I can expand, generate a new schedule, and all that other good stuff..

Can you change the stadiums opponents play in? If so, how exactly did you do this? I started a regular non-manager mode historic sim... set things up... enabled manager mode and wasn't able to further modify things. Have you figured some workaround Shorty?

Steve, Why not unlock the things that you won't make your team better. I understand locking the things where somebody will be able to improve their team. But I don't see why we can't edit peoples names. Just unlock things that will not improve your team. If people want to cheat then let them do it in Sandbox, honestly, Why cheat, how much fun can it be?

No, I cannot set new stadiums for teams.

But still, I added 2 teams 3 years ago and it has worked out great in manager mode.

I WOULD like to be able to edit names, nicknames, and the like.

I did report it ... I used Gforce's roster and improved Trot Nixon and lowered Wakefield's stats and then started a new manager career and Boston wasn't available ... only tried it once with that one team and only in Gforce's roster so it's not tested but that one time it did happen

Problem is in sandbox mode there is no marriage or firings. And I absolutely must edit my league, because there are some serious flaws.

Yea basic name changes should be optioned ( next patch? )
I have a feeling this would not even come close to being a patch issue but anyway here goes.

not sure if I don't see it but there should be a screen that allows stadium modifications ( in manager mode ) that you would HAVE to pay for.

Like it can happen in the off season, example, buying 5,000 more seats. That would take out of my cash etc. Along with CPU teams being able to do this.

Now if this is in and i can't find it lol someone point me to it. If not, then not a bad idea for a mod later on
