Do you still play OOTP16(while playing OOTP17)?

Orioles1966 · 03-24-2016, 10:57 AM

I've kept two world's going in OOTP16 while importing two leagues over to OOTP17 and just formed a modern MLB(with expansion) and two fictional leagues included(with Triple A leagues) for OOTP17.

Only until my online league switches

Padreman · 03-24-2016, 10:58 AM

No

The Wolf · 03-24-2016, 11:00 AM

Nope. Moved on.

TribeFanInNC · 03-24-2016, 11:01 AM

No, just in online leagues where I have to. Sometimes I find it annoying to switch back and forth between two different UIs. (Though 16 and 17 are not very different in this case)

JcBoscan · 03-24-2016, 11:09 AM

Yeah, I've got a longtime fictional league that I always wait to switch over until after the first few patches. So I use 16 for that league and 17 to mess around with other stuff.

I have moved on...but ootp15 and ootp16 are still in my computer...i wont delete them.

Same.

I've imported over my historical dynasty, but my 2015 season is nearly complete and won't move it until I finish the season in OOTP16. Once I hit the off-season I will move on completely to OOTP17.

I can't. I play on Mac and when I play in fullscreen, the Mac doesn't allow you to switch between two programs simultaneously very easy.

As above, but eventually delete the games. DO leave the Doc files with all the old jerseys, mods, settings, etc... just in case I need the reference , or in the latest case, selecting a jersey that went haywire, had to navigate to the v15 Saved Games/League/Jerseys/ to select the correct one! Always good to have a bit of a reference library stored somewhere.

Nope. I know not everyone is a big fan, but for me the 3D and real minor leagues just makes the game so much more immersive.

17 was such a huge step forward for the franchise.

That being said, if I had a copy, let's say, 4, laying around somewhere, I might load that up for a quick series just to see how far things have come.

Bottom line is that 17 is the best of the best and the franchise keeps moving forward.

I don't think he meant literally at the same time, just having two leagues that you play regularly on two different platforms (16 and 17).

Though I guess that would be one (probably extremely confusing) way to double your OOTP pleasure by running both simultaneously, maybe in RTS mode. But I have a hard enough time listening to RL MLB and playing a MLB OOTP game at the same time, so no simultaneous OOTP for me.

Yeah-I play both at the same time. If I didn't,it would take forever too complete a season.

I was thinking about playing FHM2 also at the same time.

Oh geez...

I guess I misunderstood. My bad. Well, I'm easily confused so that would be horrible for me. Glad it works for you though!

Playing 15 & 16 until my online leagues migrate

Rayzor · 03-25-2016, 07:35 AM

Just move my league from OOTP 15 to OOTP 16 after sim-ing 100 yrs using OOTP 15, Not sure when I'm going to move it to OOTP17, I may play another 100 yrs using OOTP 16 before moving on to OOTP 17.

diesel230 · 03-26-2016, 12:47 AM

Finishing my 2018 season and going to import to 17 in the offseason.

The Game · 03-26-2016, 02:03 AM

I'll play my EBL vs MLB league on 16 until a few more patches come out. It is the only league i do not want messed up in anyway. i also have oput that league down for the time being while i try to get to 1962 in my ABF league which i put on 17 a few days ago.
