I havent bought OOTP since 15, and I cant believe how far they have come with this game. Its always been the best simulation sports experience out there, as far as being a GM, or a manager of a team, but now with the new graphics, and actually watching the game play out of the field, is amazing.
Ive always been more of a MLBTS fan, but there lack of focus on the franchise mode over the past couple yrs, has me frustrated, as they seem more concerned about the casual fans, and their gimic fantasy mode of diamond dynasty, that I told myself, if they havent made major improvements to franchise mode, I was done with it, and going with OOTP19.
I definitely made the right decision, I played a game of my 75 Reds, against the 75 Dodgers, in a exhibition game, and won 5-1, and hit a 2 run HR in bottom of the 1st with my all time favorite player Johnny Bench.
I know there is some bugs, that got to be fixed, with the game, but thats to be expected unfortunately, but I know OOTP devs, thru the yrs, have always been top notch in fixing issues.
Thanks to all who worked on this game. Definitely the most addictive sports game ever made.
Ive never been a online player, as Im old, and I guess stuck in my ways, but I may change my thinking, depending on how this online league stuff works. Im not very PC savy, so I have no idea how to go about it, or even getting in a league. But if its you playing with 29 other people, and making trades, and full seasons, I could see that being kind of fun. Although I would have to be only the Reds,lol.
Anyway again, thanks to all who worked on this game.
