What are you most looking forward to with OOTP18?

RubeBaker · 03-11-2017, 10:55 AM

Just curious what everyone is most looking forward to with OOTP18. I'm looking forward to the improved AI & trading engine.

Negro League and Promotion/Relegation if I can figure out how to make it work the way IMO is correct.
I was just wondering if you can use random debut in a Promotion/Relegation setup?

Same here, Negro Leagues and Promotion/Relegation. Tournaments would be a close second!

daves · 03-11-2017, 12:19 PM

More tournaments ability and exhibition series fix to have teams use end of season playoff rosters.

App updated.

MizzouRah · 03-11-2017, 01:28 PM

AI improvements, 3d improvements..

Must be a lot of soccer fans on here as I see many looking forward to promotion/regulation.

Tim Tebow going 3-5 with 2 HRs and then giving all the credit to God in the game writeup

smiller · 03-11-2017, 02:53 PM

Hopefully very noticeable improvements in 3D, as was seen last version, since this made the game quite a lot more enjoyable for me.

Promotion / Relegation

tward13 · 03-11-2017, 04:45 PM

Just going to fire up the 2017 season. Probably won't need the big new features

r0nster · 03-11-2017, 04:54 PM

I am wondering IF Tebow be in OOTP 18????

Maybe with full minor leagues I would think.

I think I saw a screenshot of him on OOTP's twitter. I hope he has .5 star potential.

I think promotion/relegation is a cool idea, but I have a feeling its implementation is going to be problematic initially. We've seen new features before and they are rarely ready for prime time right out of the box.

Motorhead667 · 03-12-2017, 10:26 AM

Negro Leagues

r0nster · 03-12-2017, 11:09 AM

am looking forward to improved AI

Reggie · 03-12-2017, 05:48 PM

I will be happy if a single doesn't bounce off the right field wall and land in the stands in left field. I keep yelling at the little runner saying "My god! The ball is 30 rows up! Try for 2nd!"

Anything above that would be gravy to me.

I'm going to buy it anyway.

MisterCubs · 03-13-2017, 02:39 PM

I am looking forward to the tournament option. I am hoping this tournament system can be implemented with a fictional league using players from that league. Unsure if this is possible, but the tournament option is what I am looking forward to. That, and getting stuck into a new fictional league and country I have been working on developing for a while.

This just made me think of future baseball where due to record low attendance and in an effort to get people to come and watch the slow and long 2 hour games all fans can make a play on the ball.
If the batter hits a would be homerun it's an out if a fan catches it. And of course if the ball bounces into the outfield stands instead of a ground rule double you have fans throwing out the runner at 2nd.

I'm looking forward to tournaments. I think it will be a nice addition for my fictional universe, if it works properly.

venflaalachi · 03-14-2017, 10:49 PM

I am looking forward to promotion/reg, negro leagues, and tournaments. I can't wait to do a fictional history of baseball. I am going to start from 1871, with baseball being an ultra national sport, and going all the way to the establishment of an international WBC like tournament.

I will also probably integrate earlier, but I do want to see if I could have a fictional negro league that starts in the early 1900s, and have them compete against the champions of the all white baseball league. The better the negro league teams perform, the more likely I am to integrate earlier.

I am really excited about OOTP 18. I have never waited for a new OOTP like i have with 18.
