OOTP 19 Feature List! - Page 2

FlaviusFlav · 03-04-2018, 06:43 PM

Are there any changes that will make it easier to search for managers that will have good relationships/development impact on your teams?

I'd love to see it be a column on the personnel list!

"Extremely Low" injury setting?

Might have change my rules on my upcoming season.

I can only hope that any impact is marginal or this should be put into "arcade" mode.

You know what’d be cool? If the play-by-play would acknowledge an injury when it happens.

“...Hard slide into second. And he is... SAFE!
Uh oh. Joe Blow is slow to get up.
He’s limping around now.
The trainer is running out to take a look
It looks like they will take Joe Blow out of the game...

Then you will be prompted to replace the injured player. It would be a nice touch that would spice up the play-by-play.

I think what they mean is you don't have replace a player until the end of the inning.

Often-times a player would get injured making an out and you'd have to replace him before the game could continue, where as in real life you could wait until the next half-inning.

This got tricky with pitchers getting hurt on the final out of a half-inning, when you'd have to burn a reliever before the bottom of the inning even though his line-up spot might be coming up soon.

I'd like some sort of preliminary diagnosis as to the general type of injury before we get the final word and length of absence.

For example, if we could know that a pitcher is just being checked for a sprained ankle or hamstring injury instead of a serious arm injury, it would make that 2-3 games of wait time that much less stressful.

Likewise, it would be good to know when a hitter is hit by a pitch ... are they checking him for a concussion? A broken wrist?

Adding injury notes to the game recaps would be fantastic.

Cheers!

Does that mean we can now play with REAL historical minor league teams in historical mode with real life MLB Transactions? So, if I chose to be the Durham Bulls for example...every year the Durham Bulls would have their real lineups in relation to that year I am playing in. Pretty cool if so!

You cannot see me right now but I'm doing a slow clap just for you.

Mmmmmm, Tony LaRussa 3. Until I found OOTP, I didn't really know that baseball sims could get better. And to think that was 22 years ago...

Looking forward to this.

I thought of you when I saw this feature!

I presume this is the ability to make your character as GM/Manager a female?

I'm pushing 60 years old after nearly 45 seasons in game now but can finally be referred to as a female in all of my manager of the year news articles

krownroyal83 · 03-04-2018, 10:28 PM

"Can now set a league/tournament with schedule length of 0 to create a quick custom playoff-only bracket"

This alone makes me want to get OOTP 19

dave1927p · 03-04-2018, 10:30 PM

hopefully we can get a "drafted by team" screen one day to include the stats and overall.

I was totally surprised it was even mentioned.
Interested to see what they came up with.
Just correcting the teams folding when turning on auto expansion would make this version worth it for me.

What does support for female users mean exactly?

Not quite, we do not have minor league transactions or lineups, we only have MLB ones. The the Bulls roster may not be accurate.

Markus Heinsohn · 03-05-2018, 03:31 AM

Update 3/5
- Added accurate single game records to historical database and default MLB games.
- Added the option to choose between Opening Day and End of Season rosters in the historical exhibition mode

As mentioned above, it means that you can set yourself to be male or female, get a pretty bad but plausibly female facegen, and in at least a few of the messages we'll make an effort to address you properly. So at least the first message you see won't be "Mr. Lastname, welcome to the organization".

Orioles1966 · 03-05-2018, 05:19 AM

Will we see the ability to schedule regular season games between teams from different leagues(and the stats from that game goes to the corresponding leagues)?
