Trade Logic In Franchise Mode

[Gosens6]

Alright, I know the devs touted much improved trade and free agent logic, and for the most part, things are looking decent.

But we're still getting things like this happening..



Then the next day...



This should not be happening. Is anyone else simming in franchise to check out the new logic in action? This is one instance so far where I saw something that just wasn't right.

We DO have a trade frequency slider this year, but I don't know if it will stop things like this from happening. For my franchise guys, what are you seeing when you sim? Similar results or complete opposite?

Salary dumps happen. My biggest issue is trading Cain away again right after.

That is my ONLY issue with this. I love seeing big trades that make sense; But what they did the VERY next day killed it for me. This shouldn't happen.

Isn't there a new trade sliders this year to help with this? I haven't got the game yet, so could be wrong!

There's a trade frequency slider. Nothing that effects the logic unfortunately.

Like I said, this is probably the best year iv'e seen for FA and Trade Logic, but things like this can't happen. This was only after 1 off-season, I'm gonna keep doing some testing to make sure this is a rarity.

Side note: The progression/regression system is AWESOME

As long as it doesn't keep happening I could see it being like a 3 way trade. Hopefully it isn't a norm thing.

Re: Trade Logic In Franchise Mode

yes there is a trade frequency slider. unfortunately there is not a trade stupidity slider. lol

I wonder though how the game would know that that was the guy they just traded away. They probably dont.

In mlb 13 they tagged mlb players that were traded and would not allow them to be traded multiple times in one season. I would like to see that again.

Re: Trade Logic In Franchise Mode

I'm going to get the game regardless, but I'd definitely appreciate an update on this. Thanks for the OP!

I've generally "controlled all 30 teams" in the past, but let basically all of them run on auto-pilot, and then I'd check every few days to see if anyone made trade offers and accept/reject them myself.

But it would be nice to be able to just focus on the one or two teams that I want to control.

They need to do this again. Simple fix to an annoying problem.

Re: Trade Logic In Franchise Mode

One thing that might help to prevent this from happening is to save the franchise after every trade happens then if the next day the same player gets traded again don't save it and just load the saved franchise

Re: Trade Logic In Franchise Mode

Don't know if any of you guys play NBA 2K16, but in myleague there is an option for the commish to approve trades. I will review each trade on a case by case basis and approve them if it makes sense. MLB the Show needs this function. I absolutely hate how team X will trade a player and then re-acquire him a few days later. Seemed to happen quite a bit last year. That being said, this has no bearing on my desire to get the game. I'm taking a half day off today and picking it up. I am 32 years old, so it's debatable as to how lame it is of me to use my vacation time on a video game. My gf would not approve which is why I haven't told her, ha.

Re: Trade Logic In Franchise Mode

Hey guys, about to sim the 2nd off-season now. Will report if this type of stuff occurs every off-season, or if it's rare.

Like I said though, everything else seems to be working golden and as intended within franchise mode.

Re: Trade Logic In Franchise Mode

Been playing the Show now for 3 years straight (plus 2011) and I can honestly say I have never seen a trade that wonky. On the flip side though Zimmerman/Maybin for Perez isn't the worst trade in the world as the Royals are in win now mode and Zimmerman is a decent upgrade over a Volquez or even Ventura in my opinion. My guess is the cpu forgot that it just traded him away AND acquired a CF in return which does kind of worry me that this can happen in the future. I'll sim a few seasons when I get the game tonight but still there is always 30 team control if its a recurring issue!
