OK, I think this thread has slowly run its course, right?
In a nutshell, the main problem is that everybody has their pet peeve issues they would like to see improved or fixed, but we have not found time yet to get to it. Please keep reporting them in the bugs report forum or the suggestions forum, that is very helpful and we'll get to them one day (unless it's a really stupid idea or simply too much work with not enough benefit for the big majority of users). Thanks for your support!

Also everyone should enable the feature to report usage back to OOTP. This would greatly help as well.

I think many people would have been content with “this is a transition year while we work on HUGE stuff for OOTP 21” but instead we were intentionally deceived as evident by the refusal to release a features list before launch. This has nothing to do with people’s desire to get “their” wishes into the game, it has everything to do with customers wanting the satisfaction of knowing their money was well spent. Right now there are a lot of questions and I think we need answers as to why the feature list was not released. |

You are factually incorrect. Please reference this locked thread from the OOTP team: https://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boa...d.php?t=299528 |

All the main features were announced a month before release. They're listed right on the page for the game: https://www.ootpdevelopments.com/out...baseball-home/
As always things are added leading up to and after release, and throughout the year.

There is no excuse to ever close a thread where discussion about the game or ethics is taking place.
Silencing people will never be the solution. |

I bought the game because of past experience and the feature list. Everything on the feature list is in the game and I am greatly enjoying this version. I think for me it is the best version Since I started playing OOTP. I suppose if I didn’t like the feature list, I would have waited until the game was released to make up my mine. Over ther years I have probably played all the other computer baseball sims and OOTP is by far the best. I still check out the others and usually they just have updated rosters and some new baseball rules but charge as much as OOTP (even thought their features and options and 3D play is way behind OOTP).

If even something as basic as the structure of the schedule file is that complicated to change, then that only makes me think the game needs to be recoded entirely from the ground up. There are far too many limitations within its current code that make many straightforward additions or changes difficult. Plus, it would seem, not enough provision was made for the potential of additions down the line, and thus now when such an addition is being contemplated it has to be brute forced in rather than an allowance having been made in the structure for such addition. OOTP went through six (seven if you count OOTP 6.5) iterations under its original coding structure. Then it was fully rewritten for OOTP 2006. But there has been no comparable rewrite since. That's thirteen years under the same basic internal code. That's an awful long time. All I can say is, if every smaller suggestion which affects realism, performance, and/or flexibility keeps getting put off with "it's too much trouble to change right now" for year after year, then I think I might as well just drop out again and come back in, say, three or four years and see if the environment has changed. Because I already dipped out three years ago seeing this same reasoning continually being put forth. There's little point in putting effort into suggestions and proposals only to see the same "it's too much trouble to change right now, we'll get to it later, eventually" justification. I've got a ton of real-world data that could help improve various aspects of OOTP's simulation. But there's little to no official interest as a result. To be brutally honest, I get the sense sometimes that OOTP is resting on its laurels too much. It has become too safe and thus too limited in its choices. I guess I'm dropping out again for another few years . . . |

I don't garden, but I do a lot of weeding, and it's the worst. I end up sore in places I never even knew I had muscles ...
