Adjusting Prices After Season Start....Is It A Bug?

[sreem]

Not sure if this is by design or a bug. I didn't really follow the road to release this year so I don't know if it's a new feature or not, but I'm able to adjust my ticket price during the season so far....bug or not?

Pretty sure you were able to in 16.

No, I had 16 and you couldn't adjust ticket prices after the winter meetings ended, or the preseason started. One of the two.

If you're in commissioner mode you can always adjust ticket prices.

I know. I'm not in commish mode. I guess I need to preface my posts by saying I've been playing OOTP for a long time, including last years version, and last year you couldn't change prices after the season starts. Can someone comment on this if it's a bug and not give me pointers on the games mechanics unless they've changed?

Sorry if that sounds rude, but I'm not new to the game. I'm pointing out things that appear to be different in 17 compared to 16 and earlier.

Ah, this is why I could adjust them.

Yeah, after a bit of backlash and checking, pretty much everyone does dynamic pricing anyways now, so figured we'd open it back up to you.

So if my attendance is dropping during the season, if I lower prices mid year, might I see an influx of fans to the ballpark?

This would feel much much more realistic. When I set prices at the beginning of the season, I have zero feedback as to what the result will be. If I raise prices 5%, it could drop attendance 12% or something.

Not a huge complaint. Even just a few times a year having a chance to adjust prices is cool.
