Annual complaints

tward13 · 03-18-2020, 10:46 AM

First, the new game looks great, plays great, etc.

But.....I've been asking for years to have my pitcher's pitch count displayed somewhere (like after their name in the lineup) when my team is at bat.

Stuff happens during the game and suddenly my pitcher is up, and like to make a quick decision to let him hit or not. Or maybe whether to get someone up in the pen.

Yes I know it's there when he's pitching. I'd like it when we're hitting.

Also, can we have runners run through the base even when they're out? It's more realistic. I'd like to have the out/safe call inform me, not a visual hint.

When he's up to bat, if you click on the '+' where you'd get a reliever to warm up, the current pitcher's info should be listed at the top of the bullpen list that pops up.

Shouldn't have to click. Or go to other screens. Besides, he could be on deck or coming up soon and I may need to warmup a reliever.

you can click on him at any time during the game and see how many pitches he's thrown today.

I know. I could click on a lot of things about players but don't have to because it's right in front of me. Pitch counts should always be available, no clicking.

I mean, it's not a bad request... It might just find itself in the next build

Could we also get the date added back to the game screen when playing out games, Its been there for so many versions but was taken out in OOTP 20, If its just added to the Weather widget I'm cool

This kind of back-and-forth between designers and community is extraordinary. I have never seen the like anywhere else.

For game software, it is a fantastic thing.

We were implementing some business software and we were getting very fast responses to things we wanted changed, realized that it was because our CFO had bought software that was still being designed and we were the first buyers. Software never did work to the level we purchased it for.

So, great in a game like this, not so great in business!

Hah, I would imagine so!
