NHL 16 GM Mode - "The Age Glitch"

[tougie24]

A quick video that covers a glitch that appears to be somewhat new to NHL 16, it's "The Age Glitch". Where prospects magically age due to trades (and potentially just for being drafted or signed). I hadn't seen the issue talked about that often, and after having the issue hit me twice in my GM Mode series on Youtube, I decided to quickly talk about it.

Yeah, unacceptable stuff. I assume the 18 year old was born after 2000. Also happens when you edit a player born after 2000.

This is not good.

The glitches that bother me the most are the one when you edit a player his draft position automatically goes to 1st overall, and the one that happens when you edit a player's potential and when you back out his potential changes.

They did fix the draft glitch, although every created player is still first overall. IMO the age glitch should be patched (although I know it's too late in the cycle). Adding edit player late in the cycle after fan backlash really brought a lot of bugs with it.

Good to hear that they fixed that. But I agree - edit player was rushed and it suffers from it. The potential glitch is just odd. It only happens sometimes and I cannot figure out a pattern to it.
