I'm a little confused as to what 15 is adding that isn't already in 14? I understand real rosters will be included (which is awesome) as well as some new international leagues like Oz and Italy (again, awesome).
I guess I don't see how 15's intl. leagues will differ that much from those currently included in 14? [edit] -- or is the innovation that you can play the Real 2014 MLB season Quickstart with the international leagues included? (I haven't played the 2013 MLB Quickstart so don't know if that's new or not?) Last edited by sandman2575; 02-27-2014 at 02:50 PM. |

Plus there'll be some new functionality that recreates rl rules and that better regulates player movement between multiple leagues in the same universe. |

f.e. no offense, but there's no way in heck that the IBL or HH are anything close to low A. A lot of decent young players from those leagues with multi-year histories of solid performance in their national leagues are unable to get D1 scholarships in the US. They end up at Jucos and D2 schools and perform reasonably well, but are unspectacular at those levels and never sniff pro contracts. One young multi year SP in the HH (who admittedly plays for the worst team in the league, by far) has a highest recorded velocity around 82. To even hang a R level tag on the IBL or HH is quite optimistic. Quite a few players in those leagues are certainly AA or even higher level talent but many of the roster filler types are not US pro level players in any way shape or form. Maybe more like D2 or D3 level guys. But all this is debatable. No one really has a super firm handle on exactly where each league is compared to US level leagues as there are just too many different variables to be 100% certain that any given analysis is exactly accurate..

I also suspect that a lot of the stuff that'll be added to help with the Int League's interactions with each other and with any Major leagues will be greatly useful to anyone who plays with multiple MLB level leagues or with independent leagues in their universe as well. |

Pity, although a loan system is definitely on my personal wish list.

It would also - potentially - allow for international team competitions, which would be all kinds of awesome.

Hey you know what, we convinced him to do the DSL/VSL and the International leagues. We can try the same thing for next year with Winter leagues and WBC possibly

Eh, on second thought, maybe not. A true WBC type tourney would be so darn sweet. Last edited by Lukas Berger; 02-27-2014 at 06:14 PM. |

that was my hope for associations but that didn't work out so well. I would think that if that was possible it would of been announced by now so i'm not jumping to that conclusion, although I will hope.

Yeah, it's too late to be in OOTP 15. I'd hope it at least gets looked at for 16 though.

Actually...no I am excited for you guys, but I am a historical fantasy type guy who loves to bring major *** stars into MLB to see how they do

It just seems that the time to code/benefit to the game ratio doesn't quite line up to where Markus is willing to implement the feature. Hopefully at some point that'll change. |

I'm just going to point out the ***, KBO, and CPBL each have their own unique playoff formats. If these leagues are going to be truly represented, that aspect of real life ought to be included too. (Not to mention those leagues all allow tie games.)
