2023 2nd Round Pick Signs... then is released

[WarningTrakPower]

Is this normal in FHM9?



Sabres only have 49/50 contract which is odd...

It's common in sports. All teams get rid of top draft picks at some point.

It is not common in any sport to draft someone, sign them two weeks after the draft, and then release them two days after that.

Buyers remorse I guess. Honestly, I don't pay much attention to what the AI does, because if there's one thing that will make me stop playing sports sims in general it's tracking what the AI does. It's far from perfect and it likely won't be anything close to perfect anytime soon, if ever.

This is a preposterous response given the context provided by the screenshot in the original post. Honestly, if you are genuinely trying to help then give the question an honest effort. If you have some alternative agenda, spare everyone the dishonest reply- it only succeeds in marking you as someone to be ignored.

I am not trying to troll or flame or whatever. I just find this type of non-contribution to be so objectionable- and, to be frank, I have noticed before that, whatever your motivation, your comments show a definite tendency to be dismissive towards the concerns and expectations of others.

Granted when it comes to AI behavior I'm one who has personally given up hoping that it comes anywhere close to simulating real life. I just don't believe its possible in sports games. I believe you can get stats and results to come close, which I feel FHM does, but getting AI to behave as a human in terms of running a team doesn't seem likely.

Been playing sports games most of my life and have yet to find one that even comes close. Those expecting it will likely always be disappointed. Therefore, I've taken to caring more about the results more than how the AI manages its teams. That doesn't mean others can't or shouldn't want it, but I feel if it were so easy for developers to remedy we'd already have it after so many years of sports gaming.
