ACL surgery - suggested tweak
After tracking a few of my ex-players, I really think the one thing that would help out the AI relative to a human more than just about anything else out there, and would (I think) be easy to do, is to have players with ACL (and possibly a few other) injuries go straight from "Out" to "healthy" - no "Probable" along the way. I lost a very good QB to the Eagles in 2058. He went down with ACL surgery late that season. I've been checking on him since; in the three seasons since, he has undergone three more ACL surgeries and started a total of six games, all because the AI does not seem to understand that certain injuries carry an extremely high risk of recurrence if you do not wait until the player is completely healed.
Jim, if you see this, please consider it... thanks for reading. |

Do you put him on the inactive list, or IR?

He's not on my team any more. The computer-run Eagles look like they put him on IR immediately after one injury, but when it carries over into the next season and he's listed as out for 10 more weeks (or something), they leave him inactive until he gets to Probable, then play him and he re-injures himself. Does it matter for healing purposes whether a player's inactive or on IR? I didn't think it did... |

This sounds like a great idea. And (probably) easy to implement. |

Hm. Well, not quite so sure if it does and all. Is this the case for all AI teams? Or just a special instance? If that particular team is in the playoff hunt...I suppose it'd make a tad bit of sense to make the player active and all... Then again, not quite so sure as to the level of 'urgency' the AI operates at when it comes to these kinds of scenarios.

I agree on this one. I don't like to manage my teams and it pisses me off when my coach plays a player when they come back from a major injury too early and end up ruining the player.
