p2p/f2p League Options?

Camelsback · 11-24-2018, 09:38 PM

I wonder if it is possible, technically and/or business-wise, to be able to opt into your choice of P2P or F2P leagues?

That way, players with real-life money could compete with others that also have a budget, while those of us w/o funds could have leagues in which PP aren't sold for $ .

I love this game so far, but I fear that players with extra bux will simply buy the best teams and it will no longer be fun for those of us who don't.

This has been discussed repeatedly and won't happen, but the conversation has been directed here: http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...d.php?t=295297

We won't know how it plays out until about 5 weeks into the season.

Last season was no fun because of the stacked teams in the same division. They all got promoted and the rest of us stayed where we were. Now, with only three games left in the season, there are three divisions still in play, and in each conference two teams are tied for the second wildcard berth.

Have you played any game with F2P, P2P models.... The Show, MUT, etc.?

It's a struggle, but you eventually can get a team to compete... only difference in this is the fact that there isnt any skill.. where you have to play vs someone... learn your strategies, settings, batting orders, etc. That is where the difference will be.
