Players included in trade offers

VictorAMR · 03-21-2023, 07:55 AM

I noticed that I only got offered by AI teams player/pick (or even player+pick) for player. Maybe I don't have that many hours of playing, but I have not seen any trades involving more pieces.

I saw a few AI trades involving 2 players each way, but no more than that.

Has anybody got offered or seen trades with more assets? Are 3-way trades a thing in this game?

No three way trades and yeah the trade logic in general could use some work, which seems to be common in sports games.

Yeah, the offers you get are always 1 player + pick. I have seen just a pick on rare occasion. It's always garbage though.

The "make this work" feature is a little better and a few times was able to generate a trade. That is always one player (never saw picks).
The other problem with "make this work" is that it will only ask for a player on your main roster. It never picks a top prospect on your AHL team or unsigned prospects.

The highest ranked player I have seen traded was 3.5 potential, and for an older but presently better player of 2.5 or something. It's not that unrealistic, I do see the odd deal I could never get though, like a 1.5 star for a 3rd round pick.

I just dump the negotiating stat, I can't see any relevance anywhere in the game, I have played with it as high as possible for Elias Pettersson's next contract, and at 0, makes very little difference, same for trading for Luke Hughes or William Nylander, I have not seen a big change in the price.

It annoys me that the AI allows teams to make trades that would not be accepted if a human GM were offering them. The same rules should apply for both.
