Information--amatuer draft MLB10--bug?

[Knight165]

Okay...
I have spent the last 2 days simming....checking and simming and checking.
I have done 5 progressive years.....10 separate times.
I'll post my numbers when I get a chance.
They seem to be very different than what others are reporting.
But before I go any further....
I'm very curious.....
1. How many years did you guys sim?...
2. How many different times did you sim those years?
3. How did you check
-A. Who is available in the draft?
-B. Who was actually drafted by the teams?
4.Did you check the statistics in these years?
5.How did you check the available funds for
-A.The FA off season
-B. The funds available for FA during a season(off the FA list)

Thanks.

M.K.

I'm curious if you have any documentation of this. I have a franchise going right now where I've just simmed through every year simply to watch if potentials will change and I haven't seen a single one of the guys that I'm keeping tabs on change yet.

I don't think you'll see a player change a letter grade from year to year. You will see, however that the potential grade within the letter grade will change. A player might change from a High A to a Low A, but they probably won't fall to a B in 1 year's time.

I have been thinking about this and just wanted to say it shocks me that someone would even play 7-10 years into a dynasty. I can see 5 or 6 at most if you play roughly 50 games a season. Do you guys really have that much time on your hands to play 10 years of a dynasty? If so please tell me how you pay your bills, satisfy your wife, and play all day long. I would love to hear some tips.

Simming

Another way to stop this is to edit the ratings each year at the beginning of your season and make sure only a few really turn out to be studs. I'm just tired of all the complaining and laziness. There's a way to fix everything in video games, it just takes time and effort on the owners part instead of telling scea they put out a bad game or wait for knight and company to tell you of a workaround. This game is amazing. By the way, what is the fun of sitting in front of your tv screen, simming 20 years, and then going to bed? Wouldn't you rather play games and actually have a part in your team doing well? Yes, laziness.

I just drafted 1st rd of year 1 using the suggestion feature.

Post Draft I looked at the highest rated player for each team drafted and counted 5 A Position and 4 A Pitchers.
