For a while it seemed that my star players were never in the game in the last few minutes. For example if playing the Lakers, up by two with only 2 minutes remaining, Bryant would sit with 4 fouls.
That's only part of the issue. The main issue is auto subs don't work once I jump into a simmed game. Today I played the last 7 minutes of the 4th, my entire bench in the game. There wasn't a single sub. If I tried to sub in my starters, they'd be instantly subbed back out to preserve the lineup as it was when I first entered the game.
So basically that means playing a season or Dynasty, simming most games, intervening at the end of close games, really can't work. If the starters, and particularly any superstars, aren't in the game when the player (me) first jumps into the game, they don't come into the game. Even a close game down the stretch, starters won't be brought back in the game.
Turn off auto subs? Then the computer team still won't sub.
Anyone else experience this?
The initial problem that brought this to my attention is still there. Seems during a sim at least that guys with four fouls are held out the last few minutes of a game, regardless of the score. So when intervening in that game, if your star player has a few fouls, they won't play down the stretch.
