More work on player personalities. You should have other ways to effect a player's happiness than money, wins, and playing time. Lets let personalities and relationships actually effect something similar to Football Manager.

Better trade AI/Logic. I find that OOTP20 HEAVILY values contract amount this year.

A better scouting system. I should get more than "one" scout, and I should be able to do more with the fog of war. Let's make scouting mean more.

Bottom line: Let's pay more attention to the fans who actually got this franchise to OOTP21. I feel that the needle did not move very much from OOTP19 to OOTP20 for those of us who really don't care about "Perfect Team." For me, personally, as someone who has owned every version of this game since OOTP4 was disappointing being the 20th (21st?) version of the game.

OH and one thing I almost forgot: A better "Manager Only" version. I want to interact with my GM more. I want to be able to tell him that "we need a better 2nd baseman" and have him make a decision of what to do based on our position in the standings, money available, his positional desires etc.. I tried playing a manager only game and just found myself feeling like my hands were tied with so many decisions. And I feel like that would not be the case in the "real world."

In other words: BREAK DOWN THE SILOS.
