    Re: Franchise Mode 2021 Edition

    The playoff eligibility rule is now corrected. As long as the player is on the 40 man by Sept 1 he is eligible for the playoff roster. No longer does the player have to be on the active roster.

    Injured players prior to Sept. 1 and return after are now eligible, as they should be! Great news!

      I always run one franchise in gm mode. Sim and make moves. I play it like OOTP and play the playoffs. That is why I test so much so I can find workarounds and solutions and know how to setup my franchise the most realistic way.

      I have another I play every game.

        CPU controlled teams signing FA during season and now this...

        Nice to see that some more foundational changes were made to start building on this mode. Been a long time coming.
        I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

          Just found bug though where if a player comes off dl in playoffs, it won't allow them to be removed or added. They kind of disappear and you play short handed. Shows they are on the roster. I'll forward it on to the devs.

                Does the roster issue of not filling the 26 man after injuries happen even if 40 man rosters are full?

                  What are some of the contracts being handed out? I’m concerned because I saw a video where Lindor got 6/122, which, uh, is nowhere close to his actual deal.

                    So i think for some reason there was a max of 31 million per year that a player can get. That being said, i saw like 6 or 7 ppl get the max during the first offseason. Story, correa, freeman, and multiple others. Another cool thing i saw was player and team options.

                    Question for you TA, how would you propose working that budget issue where every team has like 90 mil in the first offseason? And what prompted you to say there is a fix on the way?

                    Thanks for your work buddy.

                        Yes after injuries they don't seem to replace the injured player.

                          On the first post you can see Correa with a 6 year/ $186 deal. I've seen Judge and others sign for $275 mil. Pitchers contracts are much better balanced, for whatever reason SS are hit or miss. They actually seem to get bigger deals as they approach 30 which doesn't make much sense. It could certainly be tweaked a little, but is a HUGE improvement. The AAV of the deals appear to be 31 mil per year.

                          The additional money fluxuates as the years go by, I've seen teams in the hole a few years down the road. I think it is necessary to compensate for arbitration and free agency. It also allows for IN season trades. I'm not concerned with that.


                          And what prompted you to say there is a fix on the way?
                          The fix is in regards to the not filling the active roster. And :wink:

                            Wow, I’m thinking about a purchase soon. This is encouraging.

                            Are all of these changes for both current- and next-gen?

                              Logic changes are across platforms. The mode has not received the "Love" I would like, but these are big changes to people that play the mode. The devs are committed to fixing and improving the "core."

                              There are alot of quality of life improvements, I am happy so far! I will be even happier after a few of these issues are fixed.

                              I bought a X-Box X yesterday so now I can move my franchise from basement PS5 to living room XBox to bedroom PS4 pro.

                                I ran into an issue in a sim where a player who had been injured entering the postseason had healed up during the opening series. He should have been eligible to come off the IL and join the playoff roster before the next series, but he was just gone from the IL. On the roster menu, he couldn't be added to the playoff roster. So he was not able to be added back at any point.

                                Similar issue was happening last year.

                                EDIT--- saw your follow-up post. Nice.
