Impossible to sort by/search for Scout recommendation ?

Post by Whomario »

Hey guys, considering the game uses some of the same elements as FM, i have been wondering about a couple things that i can´t seem to find. Hoping they are in and i´m just not looking in the right spots ...

When filtering in the player search, is there no way to display the scout recommendation and sort by it ? Or search for it ? (showing only 4 or 5 star recommendations f.e.). The former is kinda possible on the draft screen, but that´s not really helpful when managing outside the NHL or when looking at Free Agents.

The same goes for your own roster and/or AHL roster. Is there no way to display and sort by the recommendation of your assistant ?

Also, is it not possible to have more than 1 shortlist at a time ? In FM i always have several, in EHM it´d make sense to have 1 for Juniors, one for draftees and another for Veterans. I realize you can filter by age/rights, but then the list gets cluttered quickly. Heck, in FM i like to have shortlists for interesting players i won´t ever sign but whose career i want to follow.

Hope i am just missing these ;)

Thanks in advance !

There is currently no way to display/sort players by a scout recommendation except for the individual scouting report. The best way to sort through your roster is by using the View Team Report button (located at the top right of your roster menu).

Alas, there is only 1 shortlist at a time, just like in previous EHM games. I would love to see some of these things implemented/added though.

Too bad, was hoping it was just me being typically inept at finding stuff in games :-(

As far as my roster is concerned, I look at the team report to get what I believe are my scout's recommendations. I could be wrong about what mechanism actually sorts the players there, but it's definitely not the same as what my coaches are suggesting,
