    Seems a little better but could be wayyyyyy better. The sixes won the championship in year 2. I have seen some good records though. Thunder went 63 and 18. Heat went 64 and 17. Spurs barely make the playoffs in a few seasons. Kinda the same. I wish they could improve this.

      I am also curious about 30 team control in free agency. The fact that you had to advance days when switching teams was brutal. Basically had to conduct free agency offline then edit teams and contracts.

        Rotations still dictated by overall.

        All players average minutes. Same as every year.

        Most starters average more minutes now. Thank God

        Yes Ginobili and Harden start.


        Attributes and tendencies changes need to get back to you.

        Well Kobe lasted till 39 and had the same sig skills. So probably no changes. I will check more if sig skills are added and lost.

        Players rated in the mid low 70s usually sit in the free agent pool.

        Have not seen many stars being traded overall.

        Trades and signings in November have to check.

        Have not encountered any bugs yet. Just the 30 team rotation reset. There could be many but I just simmed to compare to last year.

        GM logic. Didn't really pay attention but I paid attention to the rosters. In year 6 a lot of the teams were kinda the same. There was some movement but not drastic. IDK if that's lack of trades (which I need to check) or a smarter GM. I haven't seen no blown teams rebuilding or a team trying to load superstars for a championship run. Not to say its not in there though.

        Same coaching. No promoting. Exactly the same.

        The sliders I have to check.
        Damn, looks like they didn't fix those 3 Association Bugs from the previous Installment, looks like I'll have to micro-manage all 30 teams again...

          NOOOOOO! Its sad they have not fixed sim stats correctly. You can fix sim stats but cant fix something that embedded in the game. Every year they ignore it. I wasn't screaming at you lol

            Good to hear the overalls at seasons end are a little better.

            Thanks man hopefully they really fix this next year. With all the improvements and good things i'll live, but nothing sucks more than taking the time to play through Association (even if it is set to 58 games ) and then in the playoffs beating teams like the Bobcats and Raptors on my way to the Finals. Does not feel as satisfying lol

                  That's what I did. Their fixed. I played then simmed and check team stats. No stat bugs encountered YET. I simmed, played games and simmed through games. I saved a game and started it again. No stat bugs yet.

                    Re: Association Q and A

                    Thanks for doing this !

                    Can you post various screens of team stats screens and players stats screens of season 1.

                    Are there any new ratings/tendencies or new editability options for players and teams ?

                    Also, do generated players or created players get shown with their cyber faces/bodies along with actual players when "in game" and also when viewing the players card, instead of the black sylhouttes ?

                    Finally, can you please go to this thread http://www.operationsports.com/forum...rt-thread.html and check the things cited there ... some may be answered but some may not ...

                      Re: Association Q and A

                      Appreciate this insight.

                      Has the pre draft scouting seen any improvement?

                      Has the Draft Combine been added?

                      Has summer league been added?

                      Is the d league improved?

                      Does live practice matter?

                      Thanks

                        Please get back to us thanks.
                        Cold spots I think are fixed. I went into practice with generated rookies and they had a few hot spots and mostly grayed area with a few cold spots..Total stats fixed. Trade logic 3rd year and on. Didn't encounter a lot of trades. Whats the contract issue? They seem the same.

                          I got a funny feeling my guess on the Lebron trade was right, and I think I came up with a way to tell:

                          If you get the chance, at the start or beginning of a season, check upcoming FAs. Go to the team with an upcoming FA, and lower his morale by dropping his player role.

                          In past seasons, this player would just go to FA. MAYBE they made it more realistic so unhappy/unwilling to resign players get traded.

                            Can you do a 30 year Assc and check to see if switching teams in Free Agency requires you to advance a day. If this is fixed then the 30 year assc will be a true workaround for all the issues that we may have with trade logic and rotations.

                            Will be able to create our own trade scenarios and tema building ala God Mode so to speak.

                              Those stats actually look somewhat promising aside from blocks.

                                Can we edit D-League players? Most importantly name, and age?

                                and thanks for taking the time. We all appreciate it.
