Scouting Issues
Not sure where to post this, but the scouting is very confusing/limiting.
If I want to assign my scout to a country, I can only assign him to Canada, USA, Sweden, Russia, England, Germany. I realize that these are all the playable leagues, but how do you scout players from Finland, Slovakia, Czech, etc. I'm guessing this is something that is coming later when those leagues are included in? Also, when going to scout Russia, my options are Kontinental Hockey League, Russian High League, Russian Hockey League, Russian Junior League, Youth Hockey League, Youth Hockey League 2. What? Should be listed as KHL, VHL, MHL, MHL-2, etc I have no idea what these leagues are as they are listed. Very annoying a bunch of unknown but useful players in UFA at the start of the game with no ratings and no way to scout them really. Takes a while to scout them individually. Particularly due to the nature of the next problem... No way to scout or check the shortlist? At least none that I've found. I know the solutions are coming, not critizing just trying to point out things. Thanks. |

After assigning a job I can't seem to easily go back and check what the job is.
e.g. Set a scout to scout the NHL Draft and in the main scouting screen list it just says Seth Jones or whatever player I presume is being scouted? (should it not say NHL Draft?). Now if I click on that scout it gives a list of players but theres no way to tell what the job really is unless I click on one of the players names. I'd rather have the main screen tell me the scout is scouting the draft and clicking on a player would give me the player profile.

Yeah, scouting is pretty rudimentary at the moment, it hasn't gotten a lot of attention yet. As you're seeing, scouting for non-draft purposes is a real pain. Once the scouts have had a bit more editing attention (specifically, giving them an accurate home region and getting scouts for all playable leagues), I'd like to get that screen, the assignment methods, and the feedback from scouts all overhauled.
One thing we can fix soon: scouts are getting minimum, instead of average, default ratings. That shouldn't be happening, but it's an easy fix. |

Can there/will there be a way to disable scouting report messages? I have 9 scouts working draft-eligible players, and my inbox gets flooded with reports. Not big, but just something that is a little annoying while playing.

Havent tried yet but maybe disable "news for shortlisted players" and see if it works.

6'4 260 lbs
Almost every 14-16 year old player that I have scouted seems to be over 6 feet and weighing around 260 lbs, seems to be a big 14 year old haha. Anyone else having this happen?

Is there a checkbox for scouting reports at the bottom?

The scouting works? I dont get any reports ever, but I have assigned scouts to work (scout for leagues and specific players). Doing something wrong or missing something?

Edit: I have my scouts in the SPHL, CHL, and FHL in the US and those leagues are not generating games played or stats...
