I am gonna pass this year. I keep waiting for a baseball game that lets you play with past teams but it never happens. I will pick up 17 when it comes out. Not enough changes year to year for me

I follow them on Twitter, so nothing new. I've read all of these already. Happy about new brands though. Hopefully New Balance is added. So many people wear their cleats that it almost has to be in.

Am I missing something.....?

You can turn injuries on/off/manual at will in franchise mode.
I'm confused by the question.

I got that....I just don't understand why it was asked if you could turn off injuries in franchise mode FINALLY in franchise mode....when you could do it right now.
GAMEPLAY OPTIONS.....INJURIES....ON/OFF/MANUAL
Those options are always available in franchise mode at any time.

Don't know why people keep asking for a expansion mode considering its only happened once in the past 25 years. Only reason why ASB had it was because of the Expos situation.

Because it was awesome as hell.
One of the options in a baseball game that produced a lot of fun.......that and when they added the fact that your team was getting a new stadium.
I couldn't wait until (whatever year it was in game) to get the new Met Stadium!

Little bummed with the no ticket and merchandise pricing. That was a cool little addition to the offline chise.
Really interested in upgrades to the Franchise mode.
Also so hope that they can help fix the lack of depth in Right field so we can go 1st to third on base hits.

When are they doing the twitch streams?
 
# 33 Speedy @ 01/13/16 09:43 PM
I'm calling it.

They'll actually have the team's uniform displayed in the edit player screen (like 2K).

That would be amazing...Fingers crossed..
 
# 35 khue33 @ 01/13/16 09:47 PM
cant change ticket prices or concession prices, and no Griffey is definitely disappointing, but cant wait to hear about upgrades in franchise and the new brands
 
# 36 Bremser_Rules @ 01/13/16 09:52 PM

Exactly. It's not like we'll be seeing an expansion team any time soon, the mode would be a nice bonus but not necessary.
 
# 38 Bondsfan @ 01/13/16 10:13 PM
All I want is to be able to import a player into an existing franchise. That way, when SCEA adds their new rookies each week, I can take that player and upload them and replace a generic SCEA created minor league player.

That and maybe all counts being available in quick counts, where 0-0 is still a possibility, and quick counts being influenced by batter/pitcher ratings (I'm not sure if it is or isn't already).

Give me those two things, and its a wrap. Preorder done.

Calling it an interview is a huge stretch I'm just randomly answering random questions nothing more nothing less.

Don't get me wrong I loved that part of ASB, I don't even I think I ever started a franchise with a actual MLB team haha, but I rather have things like more roster options in franchise/more stats/more minor ball parks than that though.
