I never expected sound in a text-based sim, and I wound up turning it off in v5, because it just locked up my PC and added nothing to the game.

HOWEVER, if it were done right and included announcers... man, that would be tough to beat. I still miss Mel Allen calling the games in "Old Time Baseball".

Not saying it's critical or that there's something missing without it. I wouldn't break a sweat if it never came back. But if it does and it's done right, it will be a great enhancement.

Beings will most definitely come." - Gladden Field of Dreams
