OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - How can you tell defense matters in 3d played out games?

It would be nice to know the fine defensive plays in games in the animation mode... I no longer look at the text PBP.

I play out all of my OOTP games in 3D... I see 3-5 diving plays in the OF per game... really can't tell from the animation if the infield plays are web gems or not... outfield plays don't show them either.

I do not have documented facts to show it, just casual observations, but IMO OOTP has far too many diving plays compared to real baseball... there are usually only 1-2 web gems a game in real baseball... I keep scoreboards at each game I attend and use an * to indicate an outstanding catch or throw... ** for a great catch or play... rarely does my scorecard show more than one web gem a game.
