What's the bug? When a player is placed on the IR, you aren't given cap relief and they continue to count against the cap.

What mode did you experience the glitch/bug in? Be a GM

How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it? Can you recreate it? I have noticed it once but have not had the issue of so many injuries previously.

How often has the bug been reproduced? (Example) twice, so far. I have two players on IR, one with a cap hit of $7mil and another with a cap hit of $6.5mil but only have $1.4mil in cap space (same as before they were injured). Both players are unplayable and out for more than a month.

Do you have video or a picture? No

I concur that Be a GM doesn't seem to be well beta tested. I would gladly volunteer to do it for NHL 17.

I don't think I'm the only one who have this problem, but I cannot find any solutions on the internet so I'll post it here and hope someone can help me.

Platform: Xbox One (happened on Xbox 360 too)

Whats the bug? Goalie and player stats are all at zero when the introduce the goalie or showing stats in a game, it's like I'm playing the first game of the season, everytime. It happens to me since NHL 12 or 13 on Xbox 360 and it's still doing it on Xbox One. I think it's maybe a issue with my profile/gamertag because when my brother plays on his, it doesn't happen to him.

What mode did you experience the glitch/bug in? Be A GM

How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it? Play game in Be A GM

How often has the bug been reproduced? Almost always

Do you have video or a picture? No

Re: NHL 16 (PS4/Xbone) Bugs and Glitches Thread

is this game become unplayable on latest tuner updates? On online versus, the game plays clunky, a.i running into eacher, passes are sloppy, close to zero puck awareness, and gameplay feels too robotic. I haven't played in a while and decided to play like 5-6 games and was immediately turned off. Is it just me?

It's probably just you.

What's the bug? All contracts signed are 1-way even after offering a 2-way with the player accepting that condition

What mode did you experience the glitch/bug in? Be a GM

How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it? Can you recreate it? Every player I've signed on to a 2-way contract in GM Mode suddenly has a 1-way contract after playing their first game in the AHL, so when called up to the NHL and then sent back down, they have to proceed through waivers and get picked up by someone else.
How often has the bug been reproduced? (Example) twice, so far. I've lost 6 players to this bug due to waivers from bugged 2-way contracts.

Do you have video or a picture? No

The more I play GM mode, the more I notice they didn't test it very well at all.

A very similar bug is all newly agreed contract 2-way contracts turning out to be 1-way as soon as they are signed during re-sign phase. Occured after the 2017 draft. Totally destoys that GM Mode career.

Whats the bug?

For some reason, I cannot edit the potential of any of my players. The overalls I can, but not the potential or the accuracy of the potential. Why is this happening?

What mode did you experience the glitch/bug in?

Customize > Rosters > Edit Player

How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it? Can you recreate it?

I cannot. The potential AND the accuracy will often change it to something completely different than what I selected. I will try to set Jacob Josefson to 82-84 overall and a top 9 medium AND and top 6 low. At times he switched to elite medium and other time he's a top 6 medium.

How often has the bug been reproduced? (Example) twice, so far.

Every single time I've tried to edit it. It started recently.

Do you have video or a picture?

No.

A workaround.

Whenever negotiating with a non-rookie and wanting to offer a 2-way contract:

1) First, at the negotiating screen, choose 1-way as contract type;
2) Before actually committing the offer, move the type back to 2-way;
3) Make sure to adjust the contract amount back to the player's desired amount for a 2-way contract;
4) Commit the contact.

Re: NHL 16 (PS4/Xbone) Bugs and Glitches Thread

Not sure if this has been brought up yet but I discovered that if you edit a drafted player who hasn't signed a contract yet, they are automatically signed when you start Be a GM mode and players from your organization are automatically dropped to free agency. This is where the 'Unsigned' option would come in handy when editing players.

Whats the bug? Game crashes to 'desktop'

What mode did you experience the glitch/bug in? Be a Player

How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it? Can you recreate it? I can't say for sure, but I think if a team scores multiple times on a major penalty - or possibly if the number of goals exceed the number of penalties (ie, 4/3 on PP), the game crashes once the power play is over.

How often has the bug been reproduced? (Example) twice, so far. It's happened twice, and I believe that was the factor both times (scored multiple times on a major PP).

Do you have video or a picture? Nope. Again - crashed to desktop.
