First impressions! - Page 6

I'm most impressed with the BNN page. It looks MUCH improved and much easier to view now under the black skin.

Another Mike D · 06-03-2009, 02:37 PM

Is there any way to display individual pitch ratings in the HTML (on the player card)?

dingus4ever · 06-03-2009, 02:40 PM

Injuries are kinda ridiculous. I have had about 25 million in contracts on the bench for over half the season with a wide variety of players going down. My payroll is only 90 million... and thats not all players... player payroll is about 80. So... very frustrating. Playing sub .400 ball.

Though results depend on league modifiers and the ability of hitters in your league, I would bet that guy would post a 5.50+ ERA when fully developed in the majors. Hardly solid if you ask me.

How's the performance on machines which were borderline for running v9. Can they handle v10? I've got a laptop which can run v9 but if it was any slower it would be annoying.

Where do you go to see the graphs?

When you look at your player ratings they now have a graph along with the number. And the players BNN page shows graphs. We used to have them and I know they were missed, so should be alot of happy players. Welcome aboard mafia geek, you will find most of the people helpful...

Just to be accurate, these are rating bars, not graphs that show players averages and era's going up and down over the course of a year.

You can change injury frequency if you would like but the amount of injuries is very very close to real life. Check out the Cubs in real life. We have had Aramis Ramirez, Rich Harden and Zambrano on the DL at the same time. I think thats about 35 million right there. Bradley was either on it or close as well.

Oh okay, I knew about those. Darn.

Good to see those back too, though...don't get me wrong.

No. There's no room.

We fixed some issues with memory management so I'm 99.9% sure that OOTP10 will run on that laptop as well or even better as OOTP9 did.

I know, I miss the other graphs too.

Ah that's what I was looking for.

The rating bars are a nice touch though.

treedom I can't make any guarantees but 10 seems faster than 9.

Well, that's silly. The pages are crowded and it lists batting ratings for pitchers. Surely, the pitch ratings are more important than the 1s and 2s for contact, power, etc.

Another Mike D · 06-03-2009, 02:53 PM

Dola, especially considering how important these ratings are in contributing to whether a guy can start or relieve. I have no idea why these would be omitted but I get to see how well my AL pitcher hits lefties.

How is this guy a solid prospect? He looks borderline at best to me.

Anybody know how to turn that back on or another way to see them?

You have a point there. Maybe it can be changed in a patch.
