It would be a total Buzz kill if Association mode is as broken...

It is at times like these where the PC version is the best because of the ease of editing.

Too bad there is no way to globally lower the stats of the rookies. At least we have narrowed down the problem. Thanks for the test fcabanski.

The PC version is also much quicker in simming games and off season tasks.

Here's a question. How are draft classes saved? I can edit a draft class, but how would I save it for someone else to use?

I am not sure but I know that there is an option to DL a class from the 2K Share so obviously, there is a way to put it on there.

It is amazing isn't it?
And I saw it coming. I bet many of those crying now were heralding the game as greatest ever before it was released. Remember the "this game looks so great, will a patch even be necessary?" thread?

With so much that the developers added and tweaked in one dev. cycle you have to expect things like this that will require finetuning.

Yep, using 'Yeah...that guy' method of lowering the potential in the 2nd year i've had 17 trades total.

Teams are also picking up FAs during the season. I think it's safe to assume the rookies coming in are the problem. Teams are filling their needs and also just looking at trade value potential plays a huge part in trades.

Not crying here. We just want a pretty serious issue patched is all. Also yes, association for some people is THE primary reason some of us play. I will not buy a sports game with a bad franchise mode.

Give it like 2 or 3 weeks. Much like last year there will be multitudes of draft classes on 2k share with lower scaled rookie ratings so the only issue would be the blowout sims. I'm not worried as I'm a person that would edit rookies anyway. I hate them all coming in looking the same.

So all you did was lower the potential and not worry about the overall ratings?
