PS4 The Show 14 - Trade Logic Improved?

[Comp625]

The Show is the most realistic and in-depth sports video game franchise that I've ever played. Improved graphics, enhanced audio, and tweaked ball physics are critical ingredients for game sales. Yet, I am disappointed every year about how the CPU Trade Logic (or lack thereof). It is very annoying to self-manage trades for all teams...

Does anyone know if The Show '14 will feature improved CPU trade logic?

Yes according to PSnation podcast, and also Wrong section of forum

Trade logic for the A.I. will always be as flawed as human trade logic is. See the Red Sox giving Jeff Bagwell for Larry Anderson or the Phillies sending Ryne Sandberg AND Larry Bowa for Ivan DeJesus or Toronto dealing Michael Young for Estaban Loaiza or any other of a hundred head scratching trades.

I think every year they tweak trade logic, so my guess is this year they did again. I dont think it will ever be perfect, as I am sure its something that very hard to code into any sport game. Thankfully we have the ability to control all teams, without having to actually control everything with every team. Not sure why a lot of people struggle to understand that by using 30 team control does not mean you have to control everything involved with each organization. You can do as much or as little as you want, and imo if you like your franchise to replicate real life or close to it the only way to go is 30 team control. What I do is leave everything to auto but watch trades offered and if I dont thing its realistic I nix it before it happens.

I was so happy when they fixed retirements, and I'll be even more happy when the trade logic is greatly improved.

Trades are so out of control that on multiple occasions I've had to turn CPU trades off until around the all star break. Maybe there should be a slider for trade frequency.

No, the trade logic is as bad as ever. This has been an issue for the last 7 years and they have been too lazy to fix the issue. I play rtts 95% of the time and the unrealistic trades has ruined the game forever for me. It's just way too frustrating to play.

So I can just control the trade aspect of it? That would be nice. Thanks.

Question to you my friend. How can they fix it? Give them suggestions to fix the trade logic. All I hear is complaints!
