flash0788 Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 Can't figure this out. I'm using the Braves for my Dynasty and even though Chipper Jones is an extremely durable player he's complaining about his playing time. Nothing specific, just doesn't like the amount of playing time he's getting. If I leave him in for a series or two he's still not happy and if I sit him on the bench he's not happy. Is he just whining or what? Other players complained but were more specific, like Julio Franco said I was playing him too much so I took him out as primary at 1st and put in Laroche and he's happy again. Just can't seem to figure out Jones and Giles though. Both the same complaint but nothing seems to satisfy. If I didn't need Chippers bat so much I'd trade his butt! :banghead: Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/282-unhappy-players-in-dynasty-mode/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backdraft Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 Even if you dont want to trade him, put his *** on the block anyway... That ought to really **** him off. :roll: But seriously, this game is nothing but a bunch of complainers about playing time and contracts... Not a complaint, I just laugh at them when they complain... Ignorance is bliss!!

RsCamaro8 Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 The playing time thing can get annoying, but what's worse is when a mid-skill level player, at best, says they feel they are worth more than their contract... that's when Bob Wickman became a Milwaukee Brewer... take that Wickman! ...not like the Indians are much better, but I wasn't about to send a complaining player to a winning team.

Not a complaint, I just laugh at them when they complain... Ignorance is bliss!! I know it's fun to ignore them and treat em like s.hit (specialy when they make about 3 million dollars a year more than you), but seriously in my dynasty, someone like Cabrera who is in his last year of a contract who wants triple his salary just to hit well... well guess what,....on MVP level specialy, it does affect his gameplay tremendously. He's hitting for .204 right now, with 30 games done. and only 6 Hr's. That's something that EA did quite well in terms of challenge. And btw, I can't just increase his contract etc.. Remember, it's the Expos. :D Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/282-unhappy-players-in-dynasty-mode/#findComment-1895 Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiefpsu Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 that's when Bob Wickman became a Milwaukee Brewer... take that Wickman! Ouch!!! My guess is none of your other players will be speaking up anytime soon!

Azamien Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 My big annoyance: Jason Isringhausen complaining about playing time in the midst of a 48 save season. Hello, does the game not have AI regarding the closer role? :p Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/282-unhappy-players-in-dynasty-mode/#findComment-1902 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RsCamaro8 Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 Ouch!!! My guess is none of your other players will be speaking up anytime soon! ...you'd think so, now that would be cool if EA programmed it somehow that you could set an example of someone and everyone else got scared, but Davis Riske started complaining he wasn't getting what he was worth shortly after. I think leaving him as the Indians closer is punishment enough.

KenDammit Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 i have trouble with every relief pitcher. They always whine and complain that they don't pitch enough. I'd think they'd understand since they are relievers, but I guess EA programmed all the pitchers to feel the same way.

gryfyn Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 im not sure about starting off, but when you negotiate contracts it helps if the player is given the correct position during the deal. i.e if you offer a guys a contract a starter then he wont be happy relieving.

Stotic Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 I get into that "Not playing enough" crap when I sim my Minor League games. It seems like the computer only uses the first few listed relief pitchers and like NEVER use the pitchers at the bottom of the list.

StLouisCardinalsFan4Life Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 From what I have seen, relievers always think they are starters. No matter what their contracts are. Also, very good players on very mediocre teams get very angry, very quickly.. So I just trade them to the Indians, or the Padres to get them off my back. Works every time.. Although I did trade edmonds and a reliever (dont remember which) for A-Rod. That was pretty cool. With fair trades on btw. -Card Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/282-unhappy-players-in-dynasty-mode/#findComment-1984 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stunners Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 I actually got a complaint the other way from DAvid Weathers. He said something like "I have not been pitching well, I know that I am not, Please do what you can to help me out" So I shipped him down to AAA for a few weeks, gonna bring him back up soon, to see if its any better.
