Perfect Draft turned out exactly as I feared. The full 32-, 64-, and 128-team best-of-seven tournaments are now listed under “Dailies,” and they don’t start until 4–36 hours in advance. In OOTP 22, all Perfect Drafts were “quicks” — they had the same best-of-seven format as the current Dailies, ran around the clock, offered good rewards, and actually rewarded skill because the tournaments were large and competitive.

It used to be a fun mode where you could jump in anytime and play nonstop. Now the Perfect Draft experience is treated like some big, once-a-day event that you have to sign up for hours in advance — if you even get in. The quick tournaments are all small (2–16 teams) with odd formats that don’t reward skill. Over the years, they’ve completely restricted what made Perfect Draft great: it used to be a 24/7, quick-fill, full-feature tournament with randomly generated cards. Now it feels more like a “Super Bowl” event you have to wait for. Refund submitted to Steam. I’ll check back in five years.

Ootp 27 is awesome; must of us don't care about the stats; is the 3d animation that makes this a Top notch game. i also have DKsports Action Baseball. There are more choices on the baserunning to make a decision.
Like throw to third and the it asks do you want the batter to try for second.
I like to manage all the teams so when i play i can make all the decisions for both team; however i spend more time on DFA. Why can't we have the option to disable DFA when we play in commish mode. We can disable injuries, suspensions,waiver rule.

It's early, literally the first day of the cycle, and things will slow down over time. I sincerely hope you come back later in this cycle.

I feel like its quite the opposite, but i get where you are trying to go. I would like to see 3D animation get some buffs maybe a few more micro decisions during play by play. All in all, I like the look and feel of 27 and understand its still early with many updates to come. As someone who likes to play through every at bat, I would really like to see more updates to the 3D animation even if they are just minor improvements.
