Scouting

@DeMiGoD1988 I might see one player in ROW in the first 5-10years. Honestly don’t know why they even include it if they don’t ever have prospects generate from there. Allsvenskan also hardly generates any prospects after the first year. Under 10 per year usually. To be honest, I kind of understand them not bothering with the scouting since it hasn’t really been touched since it’s implementation (besides the hot fix this year) it was just a feature they could squish into the game mode, so they can say they added to FM, and not being “broken”, despite being very bland and barely functional

@SkylerJames13 Well HockeyAllsvenskan is a Scandinavian league that plays hockey as for ROW ok makes sense but not HAS

@DeMiGoD1988 I may have used wrong terms, I totally get that Allsvenskan is a legit league and they should be generating prospects. I just don’t understand why EA even puts it in if they don’t have it generate prospects.

What I meant is, they should put the effort into having it generate prospects instead of having it be pretty useless.

@DeMiGoD1988 Honestly there are quite a few leagues that are pretty “worthless” as they either generate little-to-no prospects, or very few prospects but are way off the board, like 500+ such as NLA, HAS, ROW, ICE, USA east I think like you said, not sure why they even bother putting those leagues in if they never do anything. USA east at least gets a few. Can’t remember if East or West is the better one, but you get my point.

I’ll never understand the AI GMs and their picks/logic. It’s absolutely horrid this year and so many people agree.

While they may be aware of the issue, I think nhl 21 FM has been given up on to be honest so I don’t think we’re going to be seeing any fixes. They’ll likely try to fix the bugs for nhl 22.. while introducing new ones, recreating the cycle, and we wait for fixes for 22.. only to get them for 23, etc rinse and repeat.

I think that in a few years, FM will either be much better and actually playable, or it’ll just get stripped down like BAP did.

@SkylerJames13 Its east. I have more luck with Europe leagues getting in the first 3 rounds then I do with USA East :/

@DeMiGoD1988 Nhl21 FM/BAP has essentially been abandoned. We won’t be receiving anymore updates, regardless of how simple the fixes may be. They’ve got hut packs and nhl 22 to worry about.

Though I honestly doubt that scouting will receive any attention in 22 unfortunately. I don’t think FM will be a worthwhile game mode for a while

@SkylerJames13 Can't hurt but try.. As the saying goes you don't get if you don't ask.
