Salary Cap glitch...not seeing it

PS-3: Did the salary cap glitch get fixed in the new update? Ive had my game about a month now, in my 5th year cc (off-line) (Chiefs) and all salaries are normal. The problems with salary I've had are mostly self-imposed. What usually triggers the glitch? Does it happen in a certain year? Is there anything I should look out for or not do? Thanks in advance!!!

The glitch happens at a random year. There isn't a specific year that you can expect to happen.

I can 100% tell you that the salary cap glitch was fixed through an online server if you play online. However, there has been no mention of fix for offline. Maybe you are a few who the glitch doesn't affect you.

I read in another thread that someone thought the glitch only happened when you delegated stuff, like resigning players or whatever.

No, it happened to me and I've never delegated anything. Hit me in my 5th year. A real killer. Switched to on line. So far so good.

Re: Salary Cap glitch...not seeing it

Thanks for the replies...But now I think I have a problem..

My salary cap is showing -13 million and thats after I traded 3 of my big money players away for draft picks...I'm in week #16, year 5....My salary cap wont move, Its stuck on -13 million....no matter what I do, I release players, trade players etc and nothing works...Also, when Im in the team salaries screen its showing I have 3 million available but when I go to re-sign players it says I have -13 million???...And says I dont have enough money to re-sign anyone....Makes no sense....When I traded it should had adjusted my cap right??? Do I have the glitch now? lol

What can I do to get back on track?

Thanks in advance.

I'm not all that familiar with the glitch so I can't answer all of your questions but you need to be careful when trading players (even for picks) as it can actually reduce your cap room. Cap penalties apply to trades just like they do when you release a player.

Re: Salary Cap glitch...not seeing it

So maybe trading players is causing the glitch??? Im sure someone has looked further into this possibility but in my case I think my trading was triggering the glitch to start or maybe just my poor money skills..

Thanks for clarifyng that!! That was the problem..I assumed that trading would free up cap space but it doesnt. That explains why my salary cap kept going up after trading..lol...After further review I dont think I have the glitch (yet). Instead of trading I released players and my salary cap is going down now for some odd reason, before it wouldnt move! I still have the problem of on the team salary screen its showing I have a positive number but when I go resign players I have a negative number, and Im still unable to re-sign anyone...Still confused a little.. Thanks!
