Realism?

bagman67 · 10-14-2011, 12:21 PM

I just started a historical 2004 replay and Im only 10 games into the season and so far here are the stats compared to the real life 2004 season

National League (coming close to real life)
Real Life: Batting Average .263, Earned Run Average 4.30
OOTP Replay: Batting Average .265, Earned Run Average 4.37

American League (way off compared to real life)
Real Life: Batting Average .270, Earned Run Average 4.63
OOTP Replay: Batting Average .298, Earned Run Average 5.93

The scores in the American League replay are way too high and am seeing some crazy scores like 20-19 and 18-16... should things even out as I get further into the season? Is this just a fluky start?

10 games into the season is a pretty small sample size. You should continue the season and things should even out over time.

The Game Engine is the same as the one used in the PC/Mac version which has now 13 versions under her belt and is widely regarded as pretty good.

I have found it realistic, with an outlier here and there, just like Strat.
