CPU's not calling timeouts again this year!?

[BoilerUp26]

I've had the game for a few days. I've messed around with sliders, practiced plays and freelances in scrimmage mode. First game I play, the CPU through 3 quarters, has not called a timeout..

it's a bug. it's not as bad as last year. I had the cpu call 4 time outs in a game, for me, that's about the max.

It should have been fixed TBH... The CPU barely calls them unless they are down big... If they are leading you can forget about them calling any timeouts... It's really immersion breaking and only compounds the substitution issues

what platforms you guys play? I m pc and even when CPU is losing they call timeout especially when the team don't make points in consecutive plays

If u are playing offline, set the rotation for the cpu team. If u set a substitution at the 6-minute mark, the cpu calls a TO at around the 6-minute mark to sub the players.

Problem is, this approach will not sub out players in foul trouble. This is not an easy fix and the problem had been like this since 2K17.

PS4 here (pro if it matters) and I don't have this same problem as a primarily MyLeague player.

The CPU teams regularly call timeouts every quarter, even too much sometimes where they'll be left with only 2 going into the 4th.

If you set your timeouts to Manuel the CPU will call timeouts , if you have your timeouts to auto they only use timeouts when you are crushing them . This has worked for me anyway so ? Hope it helps!
