player unhappy about promise

[kirtig]

Hi All,

Not sure if this is the right place to post anything but I have a certain gripe about the conversations that take place when a player is unhappy about a promise being broken for the following:

- not accepting a bid when agreed to be sold : My main problem with this is that certin times the offer includes a selling team wage contribution which I refuse to pay. Unfortunately when you decline an offer and player is unhappy you cannot say that you refuse to subsidise the wages. Is this something that can be implemented as part of a future update?

- player unhappy that a new contract was not offered: I have a player who has a decent contract and wants a new contract. I agreed to offer it him but the agent wanted a minimum fee release clause which I refused as this wasn't in the existing contract. I walked away but when the player said he's unhappy that a contract was offered i was unable to say that drop the minimum fee release clause and you'll get the contract. Again is this something that can be in an update?

Yeah there's a few things where players become unhappy and you dont have an option to tell them why. I had a player in a game where he had a minimum release clause (that he and his agent agreed too). I refused an offer and didnt have the option to say that id let him go if the offer met his release clause.

Both of these issues have been raised before and do need to be adjusted.  The contract offer one is particularly difficult because the promise is to offer a new contract, not to offer a contract that the player is happy with

Ah was there any indication it would be addressed. Yeah but i didn't want to run the risk of offerring it and then the player moving for peanuts money.

Yeah definitely this should be an option. Seems like an obvious one tbh.

Spot on.

More options are needed here to give reasons to the player, being able to tell him he needs to lower his wage demands to leave would he great.
