Rather annoying

Bobfather · 08-16-2021, 10:27 PM

Ever have an in-game injury or ejection. Of course, you have. So when this happens I go to the substitution screen and get the "incomplete Lineup" pop up. Then if it is a pitcher I try to find the reliever with the most rest. And when I come back to the substitution screen there is the pop-up again. Sometimes I have to look at multiple players (defense for hitters) and every time I go back to the main screen I get THAT pop-up. I'm like I know what do you think I'm trying to do here. Maybe the pop-up could only happen if you go back into the game. This is not that big of a deal, and not a bug, I just find it very annoying. Thanks for letting me vent.

Totally annoying

First popup is fine but as it goes on it gets me talking to my screen...

"Oh, you mean I need a sub? yeah, no s**t Sherlock. What do you think I'm doing, clicking around this screen for my health?"

As my cat gives me his "I'm ashamed to even know you" look.

Good thing I don't have a cat, because if I did, my OOTP-induced mutterings would have forced it to flee in fear a long time ago.

A dog would be laying at the door with it's chin on the floor and a worrisome "I need to get help" look in its eyes.

In general I would like it if the game did a better job of telling you who was impacted by the injury or ejection. I would also like to see a pitchers currently assigned relief role when this occurs.

I think there was some improvement made recently. There were cases you literally had to guess who to replace. Got fixed. Can still be better but at least I can't replicate the case where I have to flat out guess, so the critical aspect got fixed.

The pop-up should only appear when you enter the substitution screen the first time, and if you return to the game with an incomplete lineup.

And be able to hover over my bullpen screen to see how my relievers are doing in season.

Agreed. Should be able to spam it a little less

Simple fix would be to have it pop up the first time, and then again only if you try to re-enter game action without having made the necessary change (letting you freely navigate game log, box score, player profile pages, etc).
