Its not considered an issue. While i don't like it, the CPU is just adjusting the pro squad based off the 40 man roster to start the season. I frankly would just like season 1 to not have a spring training or a skip option so we don't have to deal with it to start a franchise.

I could or I am sure Knight will release a roster set with only the 25 man roster and the additional 40 could be added after spring training.

i think there is a misunderstanding. i believe what the OP was pointing out was that, in a franchise, you can have your line-up set how you want but if you sim a game instead of playing it the CPU will reorder your line-up as it sees fit for that game. when you go into manage line-ups in the menu screen the line-up will be however you set it but the CPU ignores it when you sim a game.

Don't backload contracts that are less than $5M per year or less than 4 years.

what does that mean????

Also are these all fixes or are some fixes and others franchise tips?

If you give someone a 5 year $60 mil contract, they will get paid out as such: $10 mil, $11 mil, $12 mil, $13 mil, and finally $14 mil which equals $60 mil. I am assuming that after the patch, if you give someone a 3 year $12 mil contract, it will be $4 mil each year.

Sounds awesome! Really hope this is out soon - with Knight's rosters out I can see myself pacing around waiting to start my franchise haha. Keep up the great work.
