What's your favorite part of OOPT9 so far?

jmknpk2 · 06-20-2008, 04:35 PM

My favorite part so far is the in-game sound. I'm sure I'll notice a lot more pleasant improvements as I play on!

What's your favorite part?

Surprisingly, the ball flight.

If I could, I would drown the duck. Hope Markus got a lot of money for that (probably wasn't worth it).

Just realized I had a better favorite part. Being able to filter by stats (AB and IP) to see the list of leaders in the player search and roster screens!

Are you talking about the PISD duck? They developed some part of the game. Visual stuff I think. We also use their Bugzilla.

Certainly not a paid sponsorship or anything like that.

I'm afraid the ball flight animation doesn't do a lot for me. I do, however, like the crowd noise and crack of the bat sound.

Giants44 · 06-20-2008, 05:48 PM

return of sound

umwol13 · 06-20-2008, 06:05 PM

Clearly it is the SPEED!

The Duck did wonders with Mac functionality. Respect the Duck.

That would require me to respect Macs and, uhhhh, yeah...

Yes speed is much improved and the Pitch Runners are back!

Those are my favorite parts.

i've heard of pinch runners........

Jah · 06-20-2008, 07:35 PM

Sound, speed, pinch-runners...the improved historical play. Lots of good things this time around.

Tried the ball animation, but for me it's a little hard to follow the animation and play-by-play at the same time.

Anyhow, great job on this version, Markus!

THEOVELS · 06-20-2008, 08:25 PM

I was hoping that the ball flight was on the bnn network screen, but maybe next time. The sound was amazing until I kept hearing the foul ball sound before the play by play had hardly started. I think the best this is the league leaders back on the standing screen. Although, I am just beginning to discover all the new sorts for stat and reports!

jabrown6940 · 06-20-2008, 08:27 PM

The sound really makes PbP more interesting. Makes me wanna play every game now.

bosunmate · 06-20-2008, 09:00 PM

I like the new scouting system and the detailed reports. And as someone else mention speed, I find it alot faster.

bosunmate · 06-20-2008, 09:09 PM

Forgot i like the pre-series reports also.

Comedian2004 · 06-20-2008, 09:59 PM

My duck's head fell off.

I hate when that happens.
