No one comes out of retirement anymore? News Feed bad with retirees......

[PMO]

So far I am in year 3 now and have seen absolutely no one come out of retirement, just wondering if maybe that's random or its a fact that no one does anymore?

Also why does the news feed not think big time players are worthy of being told they are retiring, after 2 seasons I thought awesome Peyton is still in the league, get to year 3 and he's in fact gone..........c'mon

That doesn't bother me that much especially with how bad it was last year, a guy would retire and the next year he was back. It does happen IRL (James Harrison, Tony Gonzalez) but it's not nearly as popular as it was last year in Madden.

I was looking for that also. By the way, have your preseason games changed at all? I simulated a couple of seasons and noticed that the preseason schedule never changes.

Hmmm I have not noticed

I still don't understand why they no longer give a list of players that retire. As a coach or owner, I just have to look for players that vanish from my roster. It's absurd.

Although, it just hit me that it may show up in the transactions? Can anyone confirm if retirements are published there? If so, I'm dumb and I apologize EA.

Yea it is there also..........just really annoys me then when someone like Peyton Manning retires it doesn't show up on the main news feed, little strange to me.

You can see who retired by looking at the transactions screen and sort by retirements. It will show you everyone who retired. Its the best way I have found to see all of them.

I encountered a glitch with a player that retired. Trent Cole was on my team, San Diego Chargers. As soon as the offseason hits (I think 3 or for years into my CFM), he retires and in the news it says that he'll be going in the HOF.

During the following season, I look at the league leaders in sacks. Trent Cole is on the Eagles and is 3rd in the league in sacks!! He stayed on the Eagles for 3 or 4 more years, but never aged.
By the time he retired again, he had over 160 sacks.

Has anyone else encountered something similar?
