can we see a trade screenshot? where we can trade players, draft picks, and cash (if all possible)

and is that the default color skin/theme?

The talent bar represents potential and the ratings to the left represent actual present ability. When you draft a prospect he will have low abilities, but his talents should tell you what kind of player he can blossom into. Eventually, by the time the player gets to his mid-20s his abilities should be on-par with his talents, though there are exceptions (duds if you will).

The player evaluation is for how the AI evaluates player worth. Does it take actual performance into consideration or just raw ability, or a mix? You can set it up however you want.

You can trade players and cash, but not draft picks.

okay thanks a lot treedom, is there anyway we can trade draft picks? If not, then that should be another idea that should be added in on the next patch

There is a utility that can be used to trade picks, 156,945 people have suggested that as being part of the game BUT it doesn't happen IRL.....don't look for it soon.

Utility can be found in mods forum.

Any Chance we can get a option In a forth comeing patch to have Talent shown like OOTP5 rather than a number? I kind of liked haveing Poor,Fair,etc. for the talents.(I relize 1-5 Is the same thing...Its more of a personal thing I suppose)

I second that, id rather see poor, fair, average, good, brilliant talent ratings then 1-100. tho the ABC and 123 ratings dont bother me as much for the speed, bunting, stuff like that. But i do like the fair-brilliant talent than 1-100

and i really like how you can choose the range that the pitcher pitches/ his velocity
