Bug when Offering 10 Mil a season ($50k bug)

Post by jaguar8311 »

I am the Toronto Maple Leafs and I offered Kippy a 1 year 10 mil deal and when he signed, his salary was 50K :-k, I reproduced this with Brooks Oprik for testing purposes, 10 Mil a year for 3 seasons and he gets 50K now?

Has anyone encountered this? is it only 10 mil this bug happens?

Yup. It's a well known bug in the game. I think the max is around 8-9 million per year?

i think you can give up to 9.5M. Although, i have many times gotton away with 10.5M for multiple years without it going to 50k. The worst part is that other star players from other teams sometimes get paid 50k, which give them a huge advantage

It's not much fun after awhile when you do this with players.

Low Contracts

Post by y2jericho »

Was just looking up Shea Weber who is on a different team than mine. I noticed that in the 2014-15 season he made 10.13 million and then signed a 2 year 99,500/total contract worth deal. Is this some kind of bug or something as I don't think I have ever noticed it? How would they be able to sign a player for well under the salary cap minimum?

I believe any contract over $10.25 million "resets" and starts from less than 100k again. It's a known bug.

Yep. The amount is usually $50000. Know bug and cheat used purposely by many a loser to get a superstar team.
