Was the rename because of licensing or because of Android?

Not that I care - I did pick up an iPad recently but I'm sticking to desktop OOTP. It doesn't hurt to ask, though!

Probably easier to sell. Was a good switch with the licensing. Causal fans don't know OOTP but will know MLB

With the name change and the Android inclusion, sales and exposure should increase.

Can you have multiple players with the upcoming version?

I wouldn't imagine so, unless it's something like OOTP: MLB Manager 2016.
Gotta keep the OOTP in there in case the licensing goes away.

One would imagine, significantly.

No, we don't expect that. As someone else said, the OOTP brand is well-established, so we want to keep that going.

Looking forward to it.

Im an android user, so I was left out on iootp, but I'll at least get the cheap version of this for sure.

Was reading somewhere that you get three seasons, can buy more seasons for more and all seasons for around the ootp game price. Is that going to remain the same on the MLB manager version? Or have those decisions not been made yet?

Thanks.

No. I have an iphone and ipad. Can I run the same league on both simultaneously?

Yes, but only on iOS. We do not have historical seasons for Android yet, we need to develop an in-app purchase system for it first.

No, unless you manually copy them over with some sort of third party utility.

You shouldn't have to develop one, Android has an in-app purchase system built in. Just a matter of implementing it.
