Split Ratings and Stats Views
I think I speak for almost all of us when I say that I absolutely love the game and have been looking forward to it for a very long time - but there a few a few things in there that can make the game an even better experience. For me, most of them are just conveniences and not core gameplay issues. As expected, the core has been absolutely nailed.
For me, I like very much being able to see stats and ratings splits. Whether I'm in the game trying to pick a pinch hitter or setting my lineups, I would much rather be able to see the stats or ratings vs. L or R as opposed to overall.
When making my lineups, I currently tap each batter's name and investigate his splits after three taps/swipes. Multiply that by 8 (or 9) per lineup and two to four lineups, and that's a lot of legwork.
In a game, when bringing in a pinch hitter or relief pitcher, I think it'd be great to see split stats and/or ratings as well. However, I have not figured out how to do this as a player's complete info is unavailable, and the split views do not exist.
Unfortunately, with the limited screen real estate on the phone, it may be hard to find space for these EIGHT extra buttons on the View Selection screen I'm basically begging for. There MIGHT be room for a third column, but I'm not so sure. Maybe a Overall/vs. L/vs. R drop down can be crammed amongst the View/Action/Back buttons?
Anyways, like I said, this game is already FANTASTIC, and I appreciate that a game with great core functionality was rolled out when it was. But I know (and know y'all agree) that even more can be done to make it even better. Thanks so much guys for all your hard work and efforts on iOOTP!
