That's a steal, met his demand instantly!

If only the real life Pujols wanted the same (sigh)

Agreed!

I have a negative national scouting budget as well...not sure what the impact of that is.

There is an option for you to turn off these confirmations.

This feature was added because people wanted to ability to fix mistakes when making lineup changes.

If you turn it off you will not be asked to confirm at all.

I complained at first then I realized I had asked for such a feature!
I am a little tired of being asked if I wanted to sit a pitcher after I bring him into a game

Thanks this fixed part of the issue as well as the language settings as noted by another poster.

If I had one thing to critique.

And literally it is my ONLY critique, and it isn't a complaint.

I would like the ammy draft to be better/more thorough. An example are pitchers that are two pitch pitchers....okay, that's fine he will be a reliever. But I'm pretty sure he can throw a fastball, right? Seems there are a number of guys that aren't able to do that.

And that is so incredibly minor, it's nothing. But every ammy draft, I go through and adjust the players in the draft before draft day to make them more 'realistic' for myself.

and that is all. This game is freaking awesome!

You're not the only one that brought this up.

Hopefully Markus can patch this up in this version.

Almost all, in not all, fictional pitchers have a fastball. It's just not always called a fastball. The sinker and cutter are also fastballs.

Finally finished with 2014 in my league and I backed up my whole ootp 11 folder in my docs just in case.

Loaded ootp 12 and imported my league from 11, everything was flawless.

Installed stadiums, my names.txt file and bb card template - so far, so good.

Impressions:

Love how the logos now fit the screen.
Love the new depth chart, financial stuff, scouting, etc..
The new skin is really crisp and clean.
Game definitely seems faster.
The new additions to the front office screen is excellent! Especially the graphs.
Love the newspaper.

I'm going to be up until about 1-2 am tonight at least long enough to get to the 2015 season.

I'm estatic Markus and company!

The offseason center is sweet!

Again, this game is awesome, tons of things done that I've found in just a few hours of looking at things!!!
