Historical league draft- bug still exist

bigsmooth · 08-07-2016, 08:05 PM

I reported a known bug about 4 weeks ago; with minimal response. I waited until the new patch came out; tried it today - and still the problem has not been addressed nor fixed. Historical leagues during the Reserve Clause - are seeing players drafted, signing minor league contracts - and then signing with another team the very next year. This is not realistic, and gives the teams that need to rebuild no change to compete. Example - Ron Guidry was drafted in Round 1, 8th overall pick by the Cincinatti Reds, signed a minor league contract - the end of the season, he is no longer on the Reds - he was not released, nor traded ---- can I get some sort of answer on what is going on, or if I need to change a setting to fix this problem.

Thanks!

This is fixed in the latest patch. However, the minor league release bug that got introduced (hotfix coming Tuesday) is probably what you are seeing now.

I am glad this is finally addressed - it is so frustrating trying to build as realistic league as possible, and players are drafted by teams that need to rebuild, only to have them leave after one season. I brought this up at least 4 weeks ago, glad it is getting looked into. Hopefully it will get fixed.
