Countdown to Release OOTP 18

rjl518 · 01-20-2017, 09:56 AM

And I will start this thread as I usually do.
I'm going to use March 20 as the release date since that when people that pre-ordered will get the game.

The magic number still stands at 56, just like the hitting streak of the great man below:

Caporegime · 01-23-2017, 09:53 AM

Magic # is 55, like the single season high in home runs of the gentleman below (Thank St. Hubbins the magic number to OOTP 18's release doesn't match his lifetime total in HR's, which is 868).

Don't think I've been able to chime in this early before...

It's just about half past midnight here on the east coast, which means the magic number is now down to 54.

I was going to post a pic of the legendary closer who wore that number for the Yanks, but this lovely young lady looks a heck of a lot better holding his jersey than he ever did wearing it. No offense, Goose, wherever you are.

Feel free to post players from your team...
just make sure that their number matches the days left

Not much to get excited about, there are some nice ideas here but absolutely zero to get excited about.

The biggest question is what used to work but will now be broken and ignored by the development team?

This is what has become the true ritual of OOTP.

This thread was created to countdown the release and get people excited about this awesome game for the coming year.

Please don't discourage others.
