I'm staring at my email, pressing refresh every few minutes. This will surely speed it up, right?

Every few minutes? That's not nearly frequent enough to make a difference.

Around the World Sports · 03-12-2024, 11:18 AM

Rookie numbers, I know. I'll stop working and see what I can do improve.

niu354 · 03-12-2024, 11:27 AM

Your new job is to refresh that page every second, and not complain when you can't feel your hands and carpel tunnel sets in. We're all indebted to you.

I already plan on taking Friday off so I can get Episode 1 out, so I think I have my priorities lined up

Congratulations on your 25-year anniversary! This product has provided me with countless hours of enjoyment over the years and I can't thank you and your team enough for your efforts. I also want to thank the beta team for all their work behind the scenes and the dynasty writers for their devotion to the genre and the product.

Markus Heinsohn · 03-13-2024, 02:26 PM

Thanks for the kind words!!

Daniel_09 · 03-13-2024, 02:29 PM

Congratulations on the 25th anniversary of the Game, I got to know it during the pandemic, and since that year I have bought it every year.

Looking forward to this year's version (already wishlisted on Steam).

Greetings from the country of Ronald Acuña and Miguel Cabrera.

really nice. Last year was the first year I got to play the game on the PC so am having alot of fun with the full version compared to the stripped down version that mobie gets. Especially with all the extra cities you can put a team in

Pineywoods OOTPer · 03-14-2024, 10:36 PM

Markus and crew -

This is my 15th year with this outstanding opportunity of a simulation / game / entertainment for me and I still think how impressive this was then, later and now. I have been impressed and continue to be impressed by it and all the hard work that your team has done and with the help of a platoon full of beta testers (myself included for the past five years), the 25th edition, although it should be silver, has proven to be far better than gold and diamond together.

So, once again, I raise a toast to OOTP and a hearty thanks to all involved.

This is year 23 for me! Congrats on 25 Markus, I'm loving the new development lab.

Ratbelly · 03-15-2024, 03:27 PM

Few hours in and this game is amazing. Love the lab, the GM recap, the look and feel. Amazing work.

I've been playing since OOTP3, and have pre-ordered every version from OOTP4 through OOTP25. Somewhere on this forum 10 years or so ago, a post can be found where I state that if OOTP could ever have even just Micro League equivalent graphics, it would be the greatest thing to ever exist on this earth. I have played pretty much every computer baseball game ever published (seriously, try me) and OOTP is easily the greatest baseball video game ever made, and, indeed, might just be the greatest thing to ever exist on this earth.

Thank you Markus, keep up the good work!

edit. found it ! https://forums.ootpdevelopments.com/...ue#post3033728

also relevant: https://forums.ootpdevelopments.com/...ue#post4214131 i'd still like to see collisions, umpires, and coaches on the field! and the manager running out of the dugout to argue with the ump on occasion! anyhow, all that is probably for another thread.

I was 14 when I first played OOTP. I'm 38 now. Unbelievable that I've played the same iteration of a game for most of my life.
