League play starts at 10 AM ET today (Monday, 5)!

Markus Heinsohn · 11-05-2018, 04:52 AM

Update: Servers are running again. Sim starts in 50 minutes. By the way, you will notice your achievements are gone. That is okay, currently achievements and manager history do not carry over from one league to the next, this will be fixed prior to the final launch in a few weeks, of course.

Alright everybody! After a very solid beta start, we are ready to start regular league play today.

Entry Pool simulations will stop at 8 AM ET, and at 10 AM ET all teams will be promoted to the Rookie Leagues. You will not have to do anything in order for this to happen, the normal league file download after 10 AM ET will get you the Rookie League file with your team

In the meantime, we are working hard to fix the reported bugs. We will release a new OOTP update with the fixes in a few days (likely Thursday if all goes well). That update will also have the Perfect Points shop enabled for Steam users. The eSellerate webstore version will gain access to that with the next update sometime next week.

Alright, back to work. We all hope you're enjoying PT so far!

Cheers,
Markus

Looking forward to my first league. I really turned a corner in the entry pool league after building up my team so I'm hoping the success carries over.

Does this mean what we have done in the last few days are erased, or are we starting fresh with the team we have acquired & starting over. Just asking because I logged in but I can't access my team?

All I know is the last few days have been pure bliss for me. PT is so enjoyable it's hard to explain
Thanks

I hope it's a new team. Because of a bug or something, my best hitter disappeared from my team.

Your team will go into the new league exactly as you left it if all works as intended. It worked that way in the closed beta.

No, he's gone-gone. Off the active and the reserve roster. No inactive cards either...maybe I accidentally 'released' Roger Maris, but that wasn't my intention if I did so.

No way to recover?

Check again after the servers are back up. I bet he is in your collection as an inactive card. It's technically impossible that he has vanished, unless you accidentally sold him.

I am ready. Made a few changes to my lineup and am hoping to see my underperforming Corey Seager get off to a better start in this league.

I spent a portion of my entry pool time trying to improve my pitching, both starters and relief.

By the time I get home from work today I should have about 15 games to review.

nickwatic · 11-05-2018, 09:15 AM

One thing I noticed immediately is that your league is the same people as your entry pool league, kind of disappointing that it wasn't randomized again

Orcin · 11-05-2018, 09:17 AM

This is a good time to check your pitching rotation and be sure your #1 starter is set to start the opener, as opposed to the spot where it left off.

Is that a thing?

Unfortunately I am at work and can't check. It seems to me that each new season should just start with the #1 pitcher.

Good idea. We'll do this for the final release.

I didn't sell him, the only thing I can think of is I accidentally dragged him to release him rather than put on the active roster

You cannot release players in PT.

Edit: You actually can, this is a bug. This, the card will still be visible in the manage cards screen.

I just checked mine, seems my #4 was going to start the first league game. Presumably the #3 started the last Entry League game? Anyway changed it to #1 pitcher up

Your #1 gets set automatically when you get into a new season. At least after we have fixed this

tcblcommish · 11-05-2018, 09:34 AM

I know during the Beta everything is pretty much a washout but is there anywhere that you can view what happened in the past like player stats and team stats?
