    WR1 and WR2 starters haven't played last 2 4th quarters?

    I am doing an offline CF and all of a sudden in week 12 and 13 I have had some issues with subbing/depth charts. In the last 2 games I have played, one of which was an awesome back and forth game in which I came back to win, my starting WR1 and WR2 haven't been available. They weren't injured but I couldn't sub them back in the game in any way whatsoever. I have Desean Jackson and Alshon Jeffrey as my 1 and 2 and they sat the entire 4th quarters of the last 2 games and I couldn't do anything about it. Is this a known problem or do I have some weird setting that I am not figuring out. I do set my Auto Subs at 90/95 but even so, both of those receivers should have come back in at SOME point, especially in the close game.

    Any thoughts here? I searched a bit but didn't see it so I created a new thread.

    Thanks in advance

    I believe it is a glitch, it had also happened to me in multiple occasions. Only with WRs though.

      You might adjust for sub in sub out settings. Fatigue may be a little different after the patch. Are you using 50 for the fatigue setting?

        ya fatigue is at 50...I didn't touch anything recently and this just started happening the last 2 games so it might be a post patch thing? I don't know but it's getting annoying

                  I was having this same problem. Then I read somewhere, in the sliders forum I think, that this year they changed fatigue so that players do not recover fully in the later stages of the game.

                  So I don't think players are disappearing. I just think they're too tired to return.

                  I think gamers who are accustomed to using high "in/out" settings, especially if you have the "in" setting at 95, are the ones who are seeing guys disappear in the 4th quarter. I think it's because your player cannot recover to 95 fatigue so he just sits out.

                  I've even seen my DT's and DE's disappear by the 4th with "in" at 80! It's annoying...

                  I get good results using these;

                  In/Out

                    I haven't had any issues only time I did was when I changed my subs because somebody said players would sub out better but what happen was my Rb didn't return after halftime..so my backup's played the whole second half.

                    I changed it back to default my Rb played the whole game.

                    I've yet to see fatigue kick in like ea stated about players get tired so won't be able able throw to same player over and over.

                      didn't change all of these but I did change the WR settings and it just happened again. I was in a GREAT game that wound up going to OT and for the 4th qtr and OT my top 3 WR didn't play a down, even with the the break for OT. This is really starting to get annoying. I guess I will try either setting everything to default like the other suggestion or try turning off fatigue? This is becoming a game ender for me.

                          Did you have fatigue at 50?

                          I've never had my WR dissappear with these, let alone all 3 of my top WR's....

                          I do still see my DE's and DT's dissappear if I'm out there a lot. But for the most part these have been workin for me.

                          Also I still tend to do my RB subs manually.

                            All my settings all default and as I said earlier it happens randomly. Pretty sure there isn't a fix, unless you turn fatigue off. Pretty annoying.

                              So far that seems to be the case. Random when it happens. I have tried a bunch of different settings and once again, WR1 and WR2 keep subbing out on their own for several quarters. I guess I will be turning fatigue off :/
