Favored staff

How do i get the favorite teams and favorite staff to show up in the information section for a player? I've seen screenshots that had it, but i can't figure it out. Is it a certain skin or what? Thanks

No...it only shows up if the player is a regen and has a fave player or fave staff. At least I think that is it.

I don't think it needs to be a regen, some players will develope likings and dislikes into staff during their careers. But anyway, most have none, so that's why they don't show up.

I has always wondered. A lot of Regens' mental attributes are shown when actual db players are hidden, like consistency, likes/deslikes/personality traits and all that. Does that mean that SI believes, if a player does exist, we should know his personality, but obviously we couldn't know a regen's personality? I mean, we all know Kovalev is incosistent and Sundin is reliable, et al. But a regen...

Has anyone in SI ever talked about it openly? Or I'm just overreacting...

the licenseing for the game does not allow you to be critical of any of the REAL players. SO things like consistency stay hidden for players. We know in our minds about Kovalev and Avery for example, but how would we know about their regen with a random name?

Licensing is why there is nothing in the game about some mental attributes up front, and they are hidden for most.

But with regens..they ain't real so they can tell us a few things extra to allow us to know more about them....for some real players we already know Avery is a disturber and can be a bad attitude. But the game needs to tell us this for regens, or it won't work as well.

See what I mean?

Oh, yeah, that makes much more sense...

There was a pretty sweet regen bug in 3.0.3 I think where players who were well liked would be regenerated with other people listing them as favorite. So you'd look at some of your players and they'd have favorites who were 14 year olds they'd never played with. That was pretty awesome.
