    Ditto. I think it'd be cool to bring in what MVP 2005 did with it, like some other OSers have said. Just imagining the possibility of my star player getting randomly ejected in Game 7 of the World Series is infuriating though

        You may be right about that. But, when entering the mode, the amounts reset based on player ratings/position. So, in essence being able to edit them outside of the mode is only useful if they don't reset upon entering the mode.

        Probably true, but I am holding out hope that '15 can read '14 roster files (whether it's downloading them from the cloud/vault or whatever). It should already be able to read lots of other types of '14 files (seasons, chises, rtts). I'd have to imagine that SCEA knows how much effort is put into OSFM every year and would help us out if they can.

        In essence you can do this, but you have to manually change the player's position to each other position and go look at his new OVR. OVRs are recalculated based on position. I see what you mean though...it would be nice to know what position is the best to change a guy to without going through all those extra clicks.

          How is that any different then negotiating a contract with a player adjusting money and years,you have always been able to do that in franchise mode. Sorry for being a bit confused. Please forgive me.

            Or hold I think I might know what edible contracts is. Is like restructuring a player's contract? Like Tom Brady did with the Patriots a little while back this past season? If so can you do it during the season in franchise mode?

              So when Russell said that grass and dirt will be updated for all MLB stadiums? Does he mean that the correct dirt colors and grass mow patterns will be in the game or did he mean that the dirt and grass textures themselves have been updated?

                    Well, but 15 pages of this huge thread is entirely just people asking/complaining about stadium roofs. I don't want to be the guy to "search feature" you, but you've been around long enough to know about it.



                    I don't see how it being one video game vs another would affect how the courts view ownership of tattoos. It's not as though one judge will say the law is one thing for Madden, but another for other games. Even if the court rules the player owns his tattoo at some point, the threat of even going to court in other cases is going to keep developers out. If Tiburon is scared enough of litigation to not add any tattoos without consent from the artist, don't you think it's a real threat and other developers would also tread lightly?

                    EDIT: Also the "own what you purchase" statement is way oversimplified. If you go to Disney and buy a bunch of Mickey Mouse logos/stickers, you can't turn around and slap them on another product and sell the product. That would be textbook copyright infringement. Even though you owned the stickers/logos.

                    A video game studio profiting off of potentially copyright-able original art (i.e. the Mickey Mouse sticker) is similarly copyright infringement if the artist is able to protect his designs.
                    You know what my friend I'm very familiar with that feature and guess what I have used it here too but you to some extent give the answer yourself, lot's of posts about it in an even bigger thread and I honestly didnt find the Ramon post. go ahead and try it yourself if my question, which has been answered very nicely, bothers you that much.

                      There is a chance im wrong been a bit since i played. I believe you are talking about negotiating a contract with a free agent. Thats not what this is. When you start a franchise players dont have the correct contracts. Idk if they do it that way for a gameplay reason. Or if they arent allowed to use the real life contracts. But now we can edit them so they are correct. At least thats how i believe it will work. As of now once a player is signed to contact we cant change anything about it until that contract is over. (this is the part i could be wrong about)

                      MLB players dont restructure like Brady does. Hell i cant remember the last time a contract was restructured at all. MLBPA wont just let a player give money away. The restructure has to benefit the player. Now we could treat it as a player signing a new contract during the year. But The players wouldnt have any say in this. Im sure someone will make a thread for it though to keep things realistic/

                        First off, what you're going for is spelled e-d-i-t-a-b-l-e. It was funny making harmless jokes the first several times you posted about this using the incorrect word, but I seriously want to make sure you know the difference!

                        Edible means you can eat it.
                        Editable means you can edit/change it.

                        That out of the way, this new feature "editable contracts" helps you adjust contracts that are already on the books. Say Cole Hamels has 5 years left on his contract in the game, but it's at $3.6 million per year instead of closer to $25 million per year like in real life. If you want your team to have accurate budgets and contracts (many do want this badly), you will now be able to edit Hamels' contract so that it reflects the real life amount. Without this feature, you'd be forced to A) just not worry about it and play B) release him, make sure nobody else claims him, take a huge salary hit for cutting a guaranteed contract and then re-sign him to an accurate contract that he'd HOPEFULLY accept or C) waste a lot of time, stubs or both tinkering with ratings and beefing up team budgets.

                        If only we can edit team budgets too....

                          For the record, mvp 04 and 05 had that, plus 03, 2k5 had it as well.
                          1458, not counting playoffs, that's the number of games in a row I haven't missed! Go Yanks!

                            I'm going to guess, (and hope), that it's both. Mainly the latter though.

                                Yes. If he didn't confirm in this thread somewhere, he did over on The Show Nation boards.
