Players disappearing mid-game

blockhead83 · 08-20-2009, 07:39 PM

Sorry if this has been addressed but I've seen other people mention it and was wondering if anyone knew a fix. I'm playing Texans' Franchise on PS3, default fatigue and auto-subs. I'm having an issue where Slaton is replaced with Chris Brown after the 3rd quarter, and although he's still listed #1 on the depth chart he never returns to the game. Same things occurring with my tight ends and DB's. Frustrating with my DB's because by the end of the game andre johnson and andre davis are coming in to play nickel and dime backs.

When I played with auto-subs and turned it up it just took the players out of the game faster, (ie. Slaton didn't return after half time), and the players don't get rotated more frequently. Does auto-sub just limit the number of snaps a player receives or does it rotate players based on fatigue, because based on my experience it seems like it just places a snap limit. Anyone have similar experience or know what I'm doing wrong?

Maybe they ran off to the concession stand, with the prices that low and all.

It may have to do with the fatigue slider. What is yours set to?

Fatigue is set at 50.

Not playing in preseason, are you?

I am having the same issue

Nah regular season. Game 1 I had the auto sub sliders up and Slaton was gone at half time and my WR's ended up being my secondary by the 4th quarter, so I put auto subs to default and it was better in game 2 but Slaton's still gone by the end of the 3rd and my DB's and TE's are still getting replaced in the 4th quarter.

Maybe something's wrong with my franchise and I need to restart?
When you guys turn up auto sub does it just increase the frequency that players are rotated? It didn't work like that for me.

I thought I had the same issue with NCAA too. Not sure what the deal was...

it has to do with guys no regaining all their energy back in the game this year(at least that was the answer to the NCAA issue). Try lowering your auto sub in slider and see if that helps out.

I honestly, don't know what the default auto sub in setting is, but try lowering it to around the 70 mark.

It is a bug, don't let kiddies tell you otherwise. At 60 on fatigue and 80/90 on skill players with depth chart manually set to fill every slot I have the same problem.

Bug.

Try lowering your auto sub in slider. If players don't regain all their energy over the course of the game, then perhaps having the sub in slider @ 90 is too high.

I don't know what the cutoff is for how much of their energy a player will regain during a game, or even if this is the case, but if its 75, for example, then anything over that is going to cause players to never return to the game.

Try it out...what is there to lose?
