Has anyone had trouble updating today? I tried updating and it still shows pre-Rule 5. Tried reloading the file and it didn't do any good...
I had to reinstall my file and game this morning but it is working perfect now. make sure you manually erase everything ootp from your files and restart fresh
Sweet Chiba was only able to sign their first round pick and lost out on their 2nd and 3rd round pick. The team will receive compensation picks in 2022's September draft. Our 4th-8th rounders will start in the minors. Our 9th round player opted for college. On a side Note: How do we add players to International Complex? Mine is empty. Lessons Learned: HS prospects command a lot of money, otherwise they opt out for college. With a $625,000 draft budget there was no way to meet all of their demands. In Free Agency the team targeted quality Japanese players and came away with a decent SP and MR role player. Both players will start on the 40-man roster. SP Harada will see time at the 4th spot initially (until his ERA bloats up and the GM lashes the coach for signing the failure). MR Koga will be eased into everyday middle relief. Goals for this season- Improve fielding. This team could have been confused with the Bad News Bears on defense. With some line-up changes favoring defensive guys and a shift towards 'small ball', we think this team will improve. We didn't hit a lot of home runs last year and that trend will continue until this team can develop some younger guys. The bad defense probably contributed to all the bloated ERAs'. Lil Abner is a good example. He was 3rd in the league in K's, but was 11-13 with a 3.34 ERA. I expect Randy Johnson type numbers this year. Management will remove his pitch limit and let him run wild. Chiba Lotte Marines 2022 Slogan 'What ya gonna do when HulkAmania runs wild on you?'
Wait don't we get in trouble for not signing our 1st and 2nd round picks without really really good reasons? Also I've been exporting minus the first offseason since for us there wasn't anything going on at the time besides the draft, so it aint me Roggie You can see who's participating and who isn't really based on FA signings and who hasn't lol kinda obvious.
Guys please stop PMing me questions that other people can answer. There are 42 people in this league. If you have a question, post it. Believe it or not people do help.
International players come from international FA signings. There's no scouting in this league, so random dudes scouts find won't pop up like they do in other games. Also, you can go past your budget for the draft. It just comes out of your money for free agents.
To piggyback off of this: When I get the chance later, I will start a pm conversation for all the Nippon guys that any questions/suggestions can be asked or discussed. That way you guys can figure out stuff together or I can help instead of bothering PA about it.
You can sign guys and go over your budget, but you can only give them the slot minimum, otherwise the owner rejects the offer. For me there was no way around not signing some guys. If I want to sign my first rounder, then I can't sign my 2nd or 3rd and visa-versa. My 1st wanted $550,000 and my 3rd rounder wanted +$300,000... right there I'm over my $625,000 draft budget.
Gotta pay attention to bonuses when you're drafting. And make sure you take your guys off the designated for assignment list, or else you're going to lose them.
Does it tell you while drafting how much a guy is going to want? I don't remember seeing anything like that.
I had a page that I could see all of my free agent offers, but for some reason I can't find it again, any help?
Looks like I got my export to go through. Also, damn you Ryty for signing that Japanese outfielder. Last sim he told me that he was all but coming to the ATL.
