With that being said, when I'm in the middle of a three-year period where a guy averages over 10 K/9 in all three seasons and averages less than 9 in the sim, something is off. All of his others stats fell in the range of his averages but his strikeouts were way down. That seems like a flaw not a random occurrence. Especially when the 6 seasons he averaged over 10 in RL he averaged under 9 in the game. He also had 148 games striking out 10 or more in real life. I've seem 4 in the game. That's not even statistically probable withoit something being wrong. That may be a product of a 3-year recalc but it's still wrong. It's a flaw. He shouldn't be having only 3% of the big games he had in real life. Had he had 40-50, I can see it just being random. Maybe another sim he would have 200. But 4??? That's not just random variance. |

Is it a league-wide problem where strikeouts are down overall? Or is it one player? If it's one player, it's a statistical anomaly that happens all the time with computer simulations and IN REAL LIFE. If it's league-wide, then there's probably a setting or a stats modifier that's wrong. Again, as I said a couple days ago, when we go into OOTP expecting things to be a certain way, we're setting ourselves up for disappointment. |

What setting are you using for potentials? Career, remaining career, peak seasons or remaining peak seasons?

Remaining years I believe (might be remaining peak)

I am beginning to agree with Majesty even though I dont; want to. While I am only now getting into the dominant Ryan using 3 yr recalc, he has so far been bad compared to 1 yr recalc. I should finish 3 yr recalc Ryan by Sunday.

I went back into the top game performances and Nolan had 7 games of 13+ K's. He also had 7-8 10+ K games last season before getting injured. However, he still has topped out at 9.1 K/9 in any one season. Dwight Gooden debuted last year with a 10.2 K/9. Small sample and below his real life '84 season but its also a three-year recalc.
I think the amount of outlier strikeout performances is being neutered somehow, as well as guys having outlier seasons. Have no ideas what causes it or how to fix it, but I definitely think it exists in three and five-year recalcs... |

Did you use straight 3-year recalc? Double weight current year? How did you base potential (Does that play into performance at all)? Development on? Coaching on? Player personalities on? Morale on?

Yeah, I think I'm about done with OOTP. I can't win for losing. Just a huge time waste for me...
https://youtu.be/WG5qBlaD-YI The game saved and then I attempted to make a backup of the file. While it was backing up, my PC said something happened an it needed to restart. After the restart I was unable to load my save file. I tried to copy from my backup, not thinking it probably corrupted, and kept getting an error. The game saved to an incident folder and tried to restore from there but just got me to what's shown in the video. I've had nothing but problems with this game. It has crashes 3-4 times and had to reset my video settings. Its crashed a coupel of times and had to restart, once losing a whole season because I didn't realize auto save defaults to once a year (terrible idea in my opinion). Now this on top of my in game issues. I don't know what, but I've never had as much trouble with OOTP as this year. Hundreds of hours of my time wasted... |

Then I try to submit a ticket on the support site and upload my save file and that encounters an error. SMH

What happened when you tried to restart the game? OOTP 15 used to crash on me once a week. Reset the skin and such. Annoying but quick fix. Was that your 1st ever backup of that league? Since January 1st game date I have 3 backups. Sorry that OOTP isn't working for you and the way you want it to.

It's in the video that I linked. All my backups go in the same folder. I thought I was trying to load a backup from a few weeks in the league earlier, but I think it was s really corrupted when I tried to back it up again. I'm pretty sure it's dead. Right after I get my team built too SMH. I can't trust the game not to crash so it's pretty much worthless now. So unbelievably frustrating

It's unfortunate that you are having so many problems but they are not common. I've been playing since the earliest beta builds and this has been the most robust and crash free version in my experience. It is too bad you have not shared that experience.

I don't know. Maybe there is an issue with my PC too. Its only 6 months old and built for gaming but I've had a few issues with it outside of OOTP. Just wish I could figure it out because I don't feel like I can play the game and think I just wasted a ton of time with this league |

Take a break, get your PC fixed then come back to OOTP. We'll be here. When you walk into the edge of those dark and lonely woods And when I ask "How was your day?" You answer "Not so good" And when nothing seems to be working out quite the way it should.... I will shine the light When the skies up above you fill with gray and stormy clouds And there's not a single face you know in the maddening crowd When you know that you will make your way, but you just can't see how.... I will shine the light

Well I don't know what is wrong with the PC. It's only 6 mos old and a gaming rig. Have no idea how to go about figuring out what caused it or how to fix it...

I just get a kick of playing the 77 QS I made in 15 and seeing Tom Seaver pitch till he's 50, or Johnny Bench be an elite catcher till he's 50.. |

The key is really lots of FAs or very low injury settings. If you have unlimited reserve rosters teams usually have plenty of back ups but few free agents. It does take a little experimenting but you can't expect the manual to tell you how to set up every possible custom scenario. A historical FAQ maybe long over due though. I have had a lot of experience with 19th and early 20th century play if I can find the time I could start one. |
