Crazy Free Agent Demands

sigma804 · 04-19-2015, 06:02 PM

So I started a new fictional league in 1920. I just finished the first season and am in November of the off-season. Free agents just declared.

Some are demanding salaries in line with the times (i.e. 5k per year) but some free agents are asking 25 mil a year, totally out of whack for 1920. Do i have something set wrong or is this disparity to due a bug? (I'm running patch 3)

Thanks!

You don't have the finances for 1920 in place, sounds like you are usiang modern. Go to league settings - Financials and select 1920 and make sure FA's are asking for 1920 type contracts, should be a refresh thing on the right side.

Weird, I've been playing since OOTP 5 and I've never had to manually change it to a particular year like that, it's always just progressed with the era.

Anyway, thanks for the thought and the suggestion - I tried but that didn't change anything. I selected 1920, it said "Operation Complete" and then I clicked on Refresh.

Went to the first free agent (sorted by rating) and he asked for 14.7 million per year for 7 years. Ugh.
