chemik Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Been having quite a problem lately. Team rep is outstanding, I'm a Copa Liberatore winner, and I like to carry about 4 or 5 Foreign players each season. My scouts are solid, especially for the Chilean league that I play (odd choice I know, did it at random even though I'm not remotely Chilean). One huge problem has arisen. First you haggle with teams to get to terms to try to sign a player, then they ask for promises and waste more time in transfer windows, then you get to the contract negotiation and WHAMMO, although your scouts told you they would want like $250-300K, they consistently ask for double minimum and are totally insulted with your opening offer that was at the high point of the window your scout told you and, BTW, already more than double what they were making in their current contract that doesn't expire for another 2 years. What bothers me is this, it is NEVER in your favor. Scouts never overestimate what a player would want and almost never get it right. Why would the game engine do this? It wastes so much time, since I sequence offers to avoid getting 2 of a position I only need one of. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jujigatame Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Probably the same reason why anytime you ask your GM to suggest a contract to offer to a newly signed player, their suggestion invariably is way too low and sends the agent into a blind fury.

HUNT3R Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 My scouts are almost always accurate in their estimations. One thing to take note of is whether it is a new scout report or an older one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
