Yes! It's kind of annoying the way it is now.

Here is a little thing that has bothered me for a long time...

When a player ties a record, it is listed everywhere as him breaking the record.

For instance, if Mark McGwire holds the record with 67 home runs and Barry Bonds hits 70, you see "Barry Bonds sets new NL record for home runs with 67" the day he ties the record, and nothing the next day when he actually breaks it.

If nothing else, make it say "Barry Bonds ties NL record for home runs with 67"...

Arm:58 ThO: 23\52 (this would be my first choice)
or
Arm:58 ThO:44.2%

IMHO this information is much more relevent to my in game managing than the opposing catcher's passed ball rating.

Thanks

Greatly agree with this...good suggestion, Sweed.

Passed balls is not that important...much rather know how good the catcher is at throwing out runners.

I add my voice to those calling for the LOB stat, always wanted this.

One other thing I can think of off the top of my head - Is it possible to change the injury news so it shows injuries that are CURRENTLY in effect for each team. I see this in EHM where it lists each team and who is currently injured for them rather than an ever growing list.

Riverdome · 05-31-2005, 11:43 AM

I'll 2nd the player notes idea and the changing of pass balls to throw out %. Very good ideas!!

A web idea, what about creating a form that we could complete whenever we have a great idea. Seems like I have thought of most of these at one time or another but didn't bother to post since the idea may get lost if we're not in "upgrade season".

That's a good one - hadn't even thought about it, but it is bothersome. And hopefully shouldn't be hard to fix at all.

Goodsox · 05-31-2005, 11:44 AM

Okay, this isn't really an in-game feature, but something I would like to be able to do. How about the ability to resize the game window so we can make it really small while at work?

I'm sure this would be nice for a lot of people besides me, or I may just be the only bad one on the board

DerekJeter2 · 05-31-2005, 11:45 AM

A few people have said this before - FA Player Talent - set it up just like the Ratings Report for the Team HTML Reports (Overall Bating Ratings, Overall Pitching Ratings, Talent Batting Ratings, Talent Pitching Ratings). I also like the idea of you being able to see with your scouts abilities. I think the Draft Class should be more realistic. In several leagues, I see College Players and HS Players. Usually the High School players are more developed than the College kids. The college kids usually don't develop as fast either. I'd suggest looking into this, it gets very annoying and I think it is much safer to take a HS player than a 23 year old who should be in Single-A. You might want to make College players more developed.

It'd be nice if for the Top 100 Prospects, you included all players, not just the Top 5.

This is also a good one. Altho it might be difficult because the current transaction and injury lists are just text files that are appended to. It might be a bit of coding to have them parsed and ordered differently. But if it could be done, I'd love it. I've always wanted to see things like "last 10 transactions" and "current injuries sorted by length of time out", etc. instead of having to manually look through the whole big list.

Please add my movie to the more reported stats in more reports.

Bobble · 05-31-2005, 11:59 AM

How about adding one more color on the gameday lineup screen so I can see who is tired AND in the lineup? Currently they're all green whether they're tired or not.

YES. It's annoying going through the players to check if they are tired.

I'm colorblind so I've always had to do this.

Yes, it is totally annoying. I would love to see this changed!

I wish more game developers thought about colorblindness when designing the User Interface. I am also colorblind and I have trouble with a lot of games.

Erik W. · 05-31-2005, 12:16 PM

Add my vote to "LOB and double plays in box scores" and "another color to see when a tired player is in the lineup."

My own two requests are bug fixes, one of which might be beyond ability, the other might be: Fix the damn sound bug. (Yeah, I know, slim chance.) The other one: Fix whatever bug is preventing roster makers from having the real 2004 stats show up for players in 2005 rosters. Please. With sugar on top.

arod23 · 05-31-2005, 12:17 PM

Add plate appearances to the Roster Report

Add innings pitched to the Roster Report

Also, Total, plus L and R splits for hitters on the Roster Report would be great. I know the batting report gives you all the detail but the 1-2 pages of the Roster report is nice and compact, showing both hitters and pitchers and key stats.

In fact I like a lot of the ones people have mentioned. < LOL Im no help.

Suggestion:

Have the last filter and sort criteria saved (remembered).

Example, I choose a team to trade with, bring up the other teams players, filter by SP and sort by age, choose a player. Next time I go back to add another player, it would be nice if my last filter and sort were automatically applied so I wouldn't have to filter and sort again.
