Ignore this.

Statsman1 · 03-04-2013, 08:35 PM

The text, if you resign from your team, reads:

Do you want to resign drom your current team

This should be:

Do you want to resign from your current team?

Strength spelled wrong on the scouting report.

JeffR · 03-04-2013, 11:30 PM

We'll get Gary, our text guy, pointed at a lot of these; he'd probably be happy to get some extra help broadening the selection of text, too.

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned the name of the "Greenhorn" level of experience yet. That was...not really a favourite during testing.

New item of a trade going through looks like this it seems...

OpusTheFowl · 03-05-2013, 01:40 AM

League Menu
League Stats
Team Stats

When sorting the columns, the row labeled "Total" is not locked as gets sorted too as opposed to being locked in place.

Sorry I didn't see this thread when I posted mine:

I sent one of my scouts to look at a player and he mentioned another player on the team

"While scouting B.Carson his teammate J. MacDonald made a vary positive impression"

that's some very bad spelling haha

Teloch · 03-05-2013, 06:46 AM

Front office - personnel - tactics : I'm guessing "standart" should be "standard"?
Roster - offensive ratings : SRA tooltip currently says "shhoting range".
Roster - skater stats 1 : GA tooltip says "goals against" instead of "giveaways".

As for wording, I'd rather see...
Front office menus : "Upcoming free agents" instead of "possible".
Front office menus : Just "contracts" instead of "salary obligations".
Injury reports : "He will be sidelined for" instead of "he will miss".

And yeah, that "greenhorn" as experience level does sound a bit off.

Rather strange news item: If there was indeed a "blockbuster trade" I'd like to read the details.

Noticed this one.

In my game it had "The Penguins trade Evgeni Malkin to New York R for Ric...." that's all it had. I managed to go around to the league menu to see as far as "....for Richar". If there's a big trade it should be a big message outlining all aspects of the trade, not just a brief mention of the players in the title of the message.

Stuff like news items are still a work in progress and there's much missing completely, still.

Yep I am watching this thread and will look for volunteer writers as well. If anyone is interested, PM me.

Please include the debug number when reporting news errors which will look like example [12-234]

herzkine · 03-05-2013, 08:10 AM

Spelling error: "While scouting player x , player y made a VARY positive impression."

scuffleball · 03-05-2013, 09:02 AM

Team > Personnel > Staff Finances

It reads "Money Spare". A better wording would be "Remaining"

JDevil · 03-05-2013, 09:20 AM

I am in the trade screen, and it has Dallas listed as Dallass. I assume it's trying to show Dallas's?

Saapas · 03-05-2013, 09:44 AM

When you view a profile of either Islanders or Rangers players it only says: "Team: New York"

sizzlingpopcorn · 03-05-2013, 10:09 AM

When simming the NHL as the Sens, the W-L-T at the top by the date is correct however on the simming page, the standings do not have the correct Win numbers.

-------------------------------------------------------

When resigning guys on April 22/13, it says 2014/2015 for first year of the new contract when it should say 2013/2014.

---------------------------------------------------------

Ottawa Senators Season Update

"You will get a season budget of $58,070,000 to achive..."

Should be achieve.

----------------------------------------------------------

At the start of the 2013/14 preseason, it says in my Manager Home "Your owner (music symbol) at the moment. His season expectations: Play .500-Ball."

Should be a mood face rather than music symbol.

Play .500-Ball comes from OOTP, should be changed to reflect hockey.

Teloch · 03-05-2013, 10:48 AM

Front office menus say "Transacton report" instead of "transaction".

Daletiel · 03-05-2013, 11:43 AM

In individual scouting reports, the following tweaks might make things read a bit better:

Quote:

[88-308] Jake Gardiner is a first liner

Jake Gardiner is a defenseman, so "first liner" doesn't make as much sense as "first-pair defenseman" or "first-pair d-man".

Quote:

[187-396] Gardiner has a very high stamina

Would read better as "Gardiner has a very high stamina level."

Quote:

[77-301] Gardiner has a good vision

Would read better as "Gardiner has good vision."

Additionally, [187-396], [184-390], [77-301], [88-308], [102-272], [141-350] and [131-339] all are missing periods at the end of their blurbs.
