sammysb Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Hi there, I just completed my 1st year in Dynasty mode and I can't understand how come so many players are retiring. I have about 40 players, some only 24, 25 and 26 years old. Is there anything I can do to prevent this. If this keeps up, I won't have any veterans (30 years and up) left after 3 or 4 seasons. Thanks, Sammysb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flash0788 Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 I don't beleive there is anything you can do. It seems pretty random to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mindwarped Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 retiring because of age is random based off of certain percentages for age. If a player is pissed all season he is more likely to retire for personal reasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickybomag14 Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Thats really random for guys in their prime to retire. I have only had that happen maybe twice to me. I have never heard of that many guys retire all around those ages in anyones dynasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ee Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Anyone else have any idea if you can edit what qualifies for retiring? I have one of my top 3 prospects suddenly retire after the 2004 season... it makes no sense to me. I even quit out of my Dynasty, and loaded it up again several times - and each time, he retires! I can't have him retire... there is 0% chance he would actually retire, and being one of my prime prospects, I want him around! Can you bring guys out of retirement? ...ugh :banghead: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickybomag14 Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 No you cant bring guys outta retirement. This prospect, did you get a lot of e-mails saying he was upset or anything like that? and what does it say for why is he is retireing(age,personal reasons,injury)?

mflv Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 I've made sure everyone on my team has contracts extending beyond the present year but I don't know if that'll help because my Dynasty isn't over yet. What I might do is save the dynasty before it ends as a different name and then if anyone retires that I don't want to retire maybe I can go to the alternate saved dynasty and try playing with the settings and see if he still retires. Give him a couple of million to stay on or something. Has anyone tried anything like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give him a couple of million to stay on or something. Has anyone tried anything like that? Yeah, that's what I did (had two saves), and tried several means of keeping him, and none worked until I used the mvp2k4-editor (from this site) and changed his scouting report level from 3 to 5 - and gave him a raise. A raise alone did not do the trick, I guess making him an uber-prospect made him think twice about retiring at 20. To the previous question - nope, no emails about this kid, and he had a great AA season. The reason was "personal". By the way, this new format ruined my avatar! Now I can't have a pseudo-transparent background with the alternating colors :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
