Historical Expansion Teams Fan Interest/Loyalty

Trav876 · 06-02-2024, 01:18 PM

So, I've noticed when you enter a year PRIOR to the expansion year of a team (e.g., let's say 1992, since Rockies & Marlins inaugural year is 1993), the game realistically has "fan interest" very high for those teams- and usually loyalty somewhat high (but definitely the fan interest).

However, the discrepancy is when you ENTER into say 1993 (or any year of an expansion team), and these things are now totally different.

I'm not sure if there is a random element involved, but for example, the Rockies and Marlins have "low" fan interest, basically anytime I enter into 1993, their inaugural year, versus entering in 1992, and then having the game automatically expand the teams into 1993, with huge fan interest.

Makes no sense. I would (as Commissioner) edit the 1993 figures to the 1992 values. And I would report this as a bug.
