If A Tree Falls in the Forest But No One Hears it....
OOTP 15 will continue to expand the interesting events that potentially happen in the game (MLB player moves to foreign league then tries to return to MLB, etc). Yet the OOTP player might never learn of such things unless he (or she) is much more diligent in constantly checking different leagues than I am. Or, if the OOTP player sims a season at a time and doesn't check events during the season itself.
At one level, it is as if these things never happen as some OOTP players (such as me) never hear them. They might happen, but they make no noise. I propose that more thought be given to how the OOTP player might be notified of the more interesting of such events, via the newspaper or e-mails or...better...via a monthly magazines focusing not on particular events (games, accomplishments) but on feature-like material and via end-of-the-season autogenerated text summaries. |

First, very psyched about 15 -- will preorder when I get home from work later today. Can't wait. I'm glad to hear news will get some love in 15. It's kinda distressing to see how the newspaper misses 'big picture' stories, like pennant winners and playoff developments. I may be imagining it but I think I've even see it fail to have headlines about World Series winners. Anyway, love the newspaper in concept and think with a little tweaking it will become a great resource for following all that goes on in the leagues. |
