Ok as much fun as I have had/am having with OOTP, and im trying to make my point without being an ass here, but this answer makes no sense to me what so ever.

So what your saying is that, we have the option to play with Injuries off, so that guys dont get hurt and possibly kill a career, however, the game will gladly take a dump on a few guys and "simulate" and injury to keep the talent levels even? That dump just did kill a carrer as the guy went from 100 contact to a 36. He hits 357. and .350 the first 2 months of the season and then hits in the .100's four out of the next five months after the "simulated" injury... That might not be everyones technical defination of an injury (with the injury button turned off) as he can still technically play and still be put into games, but it sure seems like a career killer to me.

Whats the point of having a no Injury option then? Maybe I am just missing something here? Isnt playing the game with no injuries unrealstic to begin with?

This is just kinda frustrating to me and im just trying to make some kind of sense out of this.


Also as I see the other thread is closed where people were saying that there are still random talent influxes or talent just dying, and the answer seems to be that it doesnt happen anymore in ootp9 or its bad luck or something. How can you on one hand say that it doesnt happen anymore or that it takes a while for it to happen in this version and then come back in this thread and say that it happens and it happens fast for a specifc reason?

Is there a be better way to impliment this, not saying it wouldnt be near impossible, cause I dont and cant code. Maybe having the ratings DIE after the season if people play with the injury button turned off?? I dont know? Like I said just frustrated.......
