Summarize your bug Let's say you have a franchise with 7 min quarters. Well you play all games that season but when you look at final season stats for each team, you will see that the other teams stats suggest they have been playing 15 min quarters and your QB, RB, WR, etc will all have much lower numbers compared to everyone else in the league. Quarter time, sliders should be set for all teams in that season to make the playing field even. Therefore this basically makes the season statistics useless. We should have an option to 'use user settings' for games/seasons so all user teams and CPU team use the same settings and same rules. Also, if you set the QB accuracy to 0 and WR Catching to 0, if you simulate that game, those changes wont reflect. Also, if you actually load the game and go into SIM, and select the speed of 'fast' sim inside the game with the sliders loaded, this also will not use the set sliders you specified. If you load the game and go into SIM mode and select the speed of 'normal' sim, this will not use the changed sliders. However, if you load the game and go into SIM mode and select the speed of 'slow', then it will use your changed slider settings. However, its hard to slow sim each game in a season and takes forever. So basically when you sim, it wont use your settings or the amount of time you allot for a quarter either. If you select 1 min quarters and then simulate the whole season, it will have the statistics of a full 15 min quarter for each game. There should be an option to use "user settings". For example, this doesnt happen when you select injuries to be off. When you set it to off, and then simulate the whole season, no injuries occur for any team. So how do injuries carry over for settings but quarter minutes and game sliders dont? I love the intent to bring more realistic settings with the simulation mode back into the game but please fix the issues below for us people who like to coach and do football statistics. Thank you!
