I really can not make up my mind, swinging back between "Yes!" and "Nah..." rapidly right now (and readers of my dynasty will find this a familiar pattern with me...).

Yes. It's half price. Are you going to dither over 16 if you don't buy 15? At some point, the improvements in a new version over what you are playing now must be enough to get you off the fence. There is no point in asking the forum if you should buy; look up the 15 announcements and patch enhancements and decide for yourself.

I need to get the "hide the nicknames" committee to take on the "add the jersey number drop down button" cause on and then we will see some results!!

What, you can't start your own committee?

I agree that the jersey number feature should be restored.

And then under player personality settings on the left hand side there's a box that says show player nicknames.

Thank you much!

No, they just moved it. Game Settings/Database/drop down menu in the upper right corner.

Well, that's two reports. Everybody should back up their leagues now and wait and see if there are more.

"Bru Bru" for short.

Guilty, although I did not mean to be. Sometimes I just want to state the obvious and save somebody (and us) time and effort.

Freeze up for me while trying out 3D but I'm not using it under normal circumstances and will not use it until it develops significantly further; just wanted to see the difference after the patch.

Defensive positioning, much improved IMO, whether that's fielding shifts or positional assignments. Still some shifting to accommodate late inning subs and defensive roles, but the previous proclivity to be over-sensitive to handedness of the opposing pitcher, thus creating a carousel of positional assignments, has greatly diminished.

Thank you so much, this is great to read!

Also experiencing my first crashes basically ever with this patch. Once when hitting the check to "sim to next day" and once upon clicking on a player history tab. Not a crash exactly, but the screen is just frozen and I have to force close OOTP.

...and a third time trying to save the league.

Yeah let me qualify: my issue was a freeze that after 3hr I had to terminate.

Okay, everybody, back up frequently until this gets sorted out.

You have been warned.

Habsfan18 · 07-12-2014, 11:52 PM

Anyone else notice the newspaper section all messed up now?

Any idea why it looks like this?

edit: Hmm, it's fine now..

Habsfan18 · 07-13-2014, 12:48 AM

I also experienced my first OOTP15 crash tonight. Game stopped responding during auto-save as it was moving onto the next day.

I've also noticed my 2032 Blue Jays file playing much slower.

edit: You know, it's weird. Right around trade deadline time the game was running super slow, taking forever to sim to the next day and taking forever to auto-save. But now that the deadline has come and gone, the game is back to normal.

No, not unplayable. But when you scroll down on track pad, say when you're looking at your roster for a substitution, the frame won't stay put at the bottom of the page. Instead, it "bounces" back up and you end up seeing only the middle section of your roster. You have to click and pull the bar thingy on the side of the page and pull it all the way down if you want to see or choose something from the bottom of the page. Hope that makes sense. It's annoying, but if you use a mouse or don't mind using the side bar it's not a game-killer

Of course it depends on what you mean by "taking forever" but I don't think it is unusual for OOTP to take longer at the trade deadline. OOTP is having to make many more calculations examining current roster, needs, place in standings, selling or buying, etc. etc. etc. for all teams that are cpu controlled.

I just bought OOTP 15 and updated it right away today. Getting no 3D graphics. Any suggestions what to do?

dancariaz · 07-13-2014, 09:16 AM

do you get a Steam-key if you buy it at the webstore? It's about 2€ cheaper there, that's why I'm asking.
