I loved Earl Weaver, too - btw, we have some of the original beta testers for EW located on this board. Take a peek around and you may bump into one of them, someday  |
The original beta testers? Wow, that's cool.
Yeah, I am hoping that OOTP does eventually become a pitch-by-pitch game. It's my opinion that the next big area of focus for OOTP should be what goes on in the game, making play outcomes more accurate and giving a greater variety of managerial options. If and when it does become pitch-by-pitch, I'm hoping it has a one pitch option like Earl did.
I think that, while there are still some kinks to work out, the macro level of the game is at the point where it looks great, and the work that needs to be done now is on the micro level.
