PawaPuro 12: CPU trades in Pennant Mode...

PawaPuro 12: CPU trades in Pennant Mode...
Greetings!

For those of you with more experience on the PawaPuro games, I ran into something for the first time and wanted to find out if this is normal or strange.

I'm working on a season in Pennant Mode, and in May of that season the CPU BayStars and the CPU Hawks made a trade which sent Matsunaka to Yokohama for two players including Kitagawa. However, having made this trade, the BayStars have not changed their lineup at all even though team stats show Matsunaka to be their top hitter by far... he's now riding pine with the occasional pinch hit or (even more amazingly) coming in as a defensive replacement after somebody *else* pinch hits.

Has anyone noticed if this is what the CPU teams in Pennant Mode do? Do all traded guys not involved with your team end up with this fate, or do the traded guys eventually get back into the starting lineup? Playing a season with Matsunaka being unused like that seems somewhat ridiculous... is it better just to turn CPU trades off or something?

Speaking of options, for the general Pennant Mode options to start a season, the first four options are for the different difficulties... can anyone give me the order of those difficulty settings? In other words, which is for batting/pitching/etc.?

Thanks for your help!

Dun remember the difficulties thing, it's been a while now, let see if anyone else can help u on that one

about the CPU thing...they're like that, CPU coach are all dumb idiots. They seems to always be on drugs, and do crazy things. If u want a more in-depth look at it, mylife mode is even easier to see these stuffs. let me give u an example. in 07 season, giants signed kanemoto, saburo. Instead of playing them, horiuchi almost just leave them on the bench, while he plays gabe kapler in the leadoff role at CF, and shimizu in LF. After like 2-3 months, kapler, with his G meet, was batting .90ish. Yet he still starts, and kanemoto and saburo were still sitting around (shimizu was doing alrite, his normal average, but still, when u gotta pick kanemoto or shimizu, i dun think there need much thought on who to pick).

another dumb thing...bobby valentine plays satozaki in DH, and somehow lee starts at C. (this is when hashimoto was injured, otherwise lee shares playing time in outfield)

Other than them smoking crack everyday, I have no idea how that could happen in real life.

And if u haven't noticed, other teams will never sign new suketto.
