Can this game be played as "stats only"

progen · 09-12-2015, 07:11 AM

Don't believe this has been asked, but in OOTP baseball, I always play as stats only, no stars, no ratings, no scouts. I only go on the players stats, whether at the major league level, or when drafting, what they've done in HS or college. Many will argue back and forth on this which is fine, but I find this the "most" challenging way to play this game.

Just wanted to see if we could do this in this game, or at the very least turn off the "stars" function.

There is a mode called "Fog of War" which hides all player ratings and thus requires you to go off stats and scouts. That being said, at current it still does show star rating. I will check with the devs about possibility of making this a toggleable option too.

Any news on this?

I've mentioned it in the beta forum and we'll see from there. There's a lot left to do before release and technically the game is (and has been for a while) feature complete, meaning nothing new is added, just testing and tweaks. Some small things have been added since that designation, but if I were to hazard a guess I would say this is likely something for a post-release patch.

What's the use of a Fog of War mode with star ratings? There should be a way to hide it as you play FoW tbh.
