Sorting madness

I've played OOTP for nearly 10 years, and I have no idea how this hasn't been fixed yet. Why, for the love of god, when you have a list sorted by OSA scouting, and you click on a player to look at...

Players are always declining

I've been playing OOTP for over almost 10 years now and I've logged more hours than I care to admit in this game. There is one theme that always seems to be consistent for every version: all the...

Waiver Wire Madness

So five years into my league I ran into an issue where the AI was only giving my low-A team 13 players, when there are plenty of players available who had the skill to play at that level. I hadn't...

I should probably not say anything, since my Geno Smith/Matt Barkley analogy was destroyed. But.....

To say that Mel Kiper had 0 correct 1st round predictions is a little misleading. He...

I understand 100% what you are trying to say, and I agree with you in some ways. But, to say that sports analysts and actual team scouts have radically different views on top end prosepct potential...

I'm not trying to be difficult, but I don't think the Mel Kiper comparison works all that well in this case. Let's take, for example, Kiper's projected top QBs for this year's draft, Geno Smith and...

The draft and OSA scouting

In my first season with OOTP14 and am in the middle of my first draft with the new game. I have some serious issues with how the game is handling the scouting of prospects. I am playing as the...

Pretty sure I am using the AI evaluation option, but it is not heavily weighted on statistics, I think I kept it at default, which only has a small percentage of statistical weight. My scout has...

Yup. I had four guys, two SP, an OF, and a C, who were between 2.5-4 stars OVERALL, and 5-stars Potential and then one day later were 1 star/1 star. The Catcher was a 4 STAR OVERALL PLAYER at the...

The most frustrating thing

I know this has been talked about a lot before, and I have experienced it in my own games, but it happened yesterday on a scale that I haven't seen before. All my prospects tanked. Every last one of...

OOTP and Excel

I am always creating Excel spreadsheets to keep track of various things in OOTP, from player progression to depth charts to overall evaluation. These tend to get complicated and often confusing, and...

Re-Scouting Function

When you use the re-scout function, is that simply updating the ratings or is it completely re-evaluating the players with a certain margin of error? I try to evaluate my players monthly to see how...

Are bad games possible in OOTP?

This closely parallels with a different topic I recently posted. Say you have your All-Star, highly rated ace on the mound. He's not on a "cold streak" but for whatever reason he is getting shelled...

60 games was just my example, I realize it's a small sample. Say this guy stinks for 2 years in a row, but his contact, gap, power, eye, and K ratings are all still really good and reflect a high...

Stats vs Ratings

Hello all,

I'm a long time player of OOTP and there is one thing that has always bothered me. In a game with scouting off, say you have a batter with high ratings who should by all measures be a...
