I like the batting and pitching splits for individual players, but is there a way to show it at the team level as well? I'd love to see how my TEAM is batting w/RISP for instance.

Also, will team batting statistics show GIDPs?

That is absolutely incredible.

Is that for all players or just the facegen MLB 2016 ones? That might be a dumb questions, but it'd be cool if that was the entire universe...?

They are only including facegen for 2016 MLB, but there are mods that add a lot more. So pretty much anyone with a facegen file should work I guess.

Have keyboard shortcuts been implemented (like pressing spacebar taking you to the next day)?

Thanks

So realistically, based off assumption, it sounds like all "facegen" players even fictional should display emotion etc...that is fantastic.

ok...so we still have put in the mods for jerseys and caps...not a problem...sportslogos.net has been very helpful for me when it comes to logos for my dynasties.

... but don't they already? I thought that was existing.

The WBC will just have ended at the point OOTP18 comes out.

Is the 10 day rule working properly in this years version, not letting you switch between minors and majors after being moved down before 10 days expire except in rare circumstances?

I don't think they show emotion/age/change uniforms automatically yet...could be wrong though. I thought the facegen emotions or facial expressions were just default.

In my fictional league, facegens absolutely age and change uniforms. From what I can remember, they also show emotion, and grow and shave facial hair.

I don't think this really changes anything, except the MLB facegens will now be "official." Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Yeah I agree I know sometimes they look pissed but if they get traded to a better team it looks like they are smiling.

Oh, I guess I never realized it...good call guys. I thought it was a new feature.

You're right

Hmmm, no, the team totals right now show basic stats & basic splits, but not the expanded ones. Maybe we'll add that eventually

nutt · 02-19-2016, 11:37 AM

will MiLB have official league histories (i.e. Champions, League MVPs), team histories (where available) and previous incarnations of team (Evansville to Nashville; Greenville to Mississippi, Denver to New Orleans)?
What about defunct MiLB teams listed or moved from league-to-league (at same level only that is)? The SAL teams that moved to the Midwest in 2014.
Will Foreign Leagues have histories now? Mainly Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Australia as most of them have well-documented League Champions and Award Winners.
Assuming no ELB, any new Independent Leagues or Winter Ball stuff to no about?
Any minor changes to Association Mode that could be helpful? (I.E. Affiliated minor leagues having the option to play a one-off championship game like the PCL vs. IL)

Oh snap, I forgot a major one:

What about importing playoff stats?

I often play with multiple major leagues, and have discovered that all-star voting is confined to only one league per season. I believe the same limit is imposed on HOF voting as well, which is frustrating to say the least. Any chance that issue can be addressed?

It was 2010, not 2014. Anyway, I'm not exactly sure how this will be handled, because functionally these are "single-A affiliate of team whatever" in addition to being their own teams...
