LifeTheLife - Simming Penalty (on/off)?

[clarkkent70]

There is a bug that the developers are looking into. There are more specific factors that affect whether you get sent down or not, but they are not working 100 percent and even though you meet the requirements some are getting sent down.

First, your Live the Life popularity must be positive. Two, you must be doing well for what your player is. In other words goals doesn't matter if you have 1 assist and you are a playmaker. If you are a defensive defenceman then blocked shots, interceptions, poke checks must be successful, and hits, clearing the zone on PK's. You see?

It used to be if you got a whack of points or goals you stayed up. Now it's more intuitive. Also in general, don't take tons of penalties unless you are enforcer, don't take offsides, don't ice the puck. Those things give a good team play rating. All these factors now affect whether you stay up or not in the NHL.

But again, if you do all the things that are important for your type of player that you selected, and can get some goals or assists too, do other things, and you get sent down, it's might be the bug so try again.

That all being said, keep simming penalty off, the devs are working on this, and if it gets fixed, the simming thing may penalize you if you leave it on.
