Association enhancements?

[spartacus007]

I know the reveal video with the Franchise Deep Dive is only a few hours away, but I'm excited to see what there is.

Associations were introduced to help get around the two-league limit, but they've fallen by the wayside. Will there be any improvements there?

Specifically, will the game stop splitting association playoff statlines by the home team's league?

Unfortunately I've come to believe that's never happening. I've posted the same, as have a few others, for several iterations of the game; it just doesn't seem like enough players use the feature for it to be addressed in a meaningful way.

problem is its a self defeating situation. it doesn't get updated because people don't use it which causes less people to use it

Just in case a dev comes across this thread, here are some specific requests:
- As OP said, combined playoff stats between leagues
- In addition, combined career/historic stats between leagues - currently only works for active players
- Combined Hall of Fame
- Association-level awards

I'm sure there's more, but these would be an amazing start for my pro/rel leagues.

Those are great examples

There's this universe I want to play with, but I've been forever delaying it cause there's simply not enough core features yet in associations

Me too. I've also given up hope though. I move the universe to each new game, waiting.

I've long given up the hope that they will do anything with Associations. We've been asking for years and they just ignore us.
Don't even both to respond anymore so it's never going to happen

No nothing planned here for this year.

Welp, I'm sticking to OOTP 22 for yet another year then

Why do they keep ignoring this feature? So frustrating

[Redge]

Probably like snarls200 said: because not enough players use Associations, but players don't use Associations because it's an incomplete feature.

It's a circular problem
