MLB 17 Feature Wishes?

Re: MLB 17 Feature Wishes?

I totally forgot to mention this. I'm still playing 15 but what is up with the fatigue in the playoffs. Was this fixed for 16 and will this be an issue in 17.

In the playoffs, it takes forever for the pitchers to gain their energy level back.

Dunno mate.

I was more referring to position players being gassed after like 3-4 games in a row. Very frustrating and unrealistic.

Last year they mentioned the fact that they could have either overhauled the challenge system or implemented a ton of new changes and they chose the latter, which was a good choice in my opinion.



Having said that, the system does need a bunch of work, but I think they know that.

I didn't know that. I am happy with the added features for a great Baseball game now.

I'd like to see SP going through the minors learn a 4th and/or 5th pitch without editing him to do so.

Yes! I've been thinking this all year, it sucks having a stud pitcher coming up with fastball, changeup, slider. Most pitchers in the league learn more pitches in the minors.

I'm curious if the Yankee Stadium additions of the new concessions in center field made it in. Did Ramone and co. already answer this? It was announced pretty long ago changes were beng made to the stadium I believe, but maybe it was too late in the process to add them? Not a huge deal, just curious.

Re: MLB 17 Feature Wishes?

I just really want a button in DD that sets lineups based on specific missions. If I need to play 1500 innings with players from the Detroit Tigers, then let me go to that mission, hit a button (like the Generate Lineup button) and have it put all the highest-rated Detroit Tigers on my team and then fill the remaining spots with best available players. Or if I need 400 hits with flashback players, let me go to it, hit the button, and have it put in the best flashback players I own and fill the remaining spots with best available.

My biggest frustration in the last two years has been the time it takes to go through and figure out what kind of lineup to use because sorting players by team and position are not on the same page. I have to go to the inventory, write down the ratings for all my players on a certain team, then go to the lineup page and go find them all.

Also let it be used for getting the most players who can be used towards captains missions. Seems like it would be easy to implement. I realize I say that as not a programmer.

at the 9:19 mark, is how Matty V should sound like when a home run is hit in the show.

Would like a Pickoff rating for pitchers, to increase the effectiveness of their pickoff attempts. Julio Teheran a high 90s for sure

I would LOVE to see them completely revamp the screen where they show all the awards. It has become very stale.

Agree 100%
They also need to include more previous awards, not just last 3 years

Re: MLB 17 Feature Wishes?

I have asked before if the community believes that the stat errors will be fixed heading into 2017. One thing I haven't asked that I am curious about is that damn "TOT". Will they be able to fix that from happening in the career stats portion? I have soooo many players that have "TOT" as their team for the 2016 season. It looks VERY ugly and it's frustrating to not actually see the team or teams if they played on two that particular season.

So wishlist, please no "TOT" in the area of career stats for the team.

Re: MLB 17 Feature Wishes?

Here is a franchise wish-list request. (I know, I am thinking of these far too late now)

After every season, I am forced to get out my notepad and pen, and write down each teams record. Why do I do this? Because after the season is done, there is no way to go back and check on what another teams record was the past few years.

I wish I could click on say.....Oakland. And let's say I am in year 2019 on my franchise. I would like to be able to see Oaklands record for the past maybe 10 years? Or more! And on top of that, another nice addition would be where they finished in their respective division along with maybe runs scored/ runs against.

Would LOVE this addition and save my left hand from writing all of that information down each season.

Re: MLB 17 Feature Wishes?

I'm wondering if its too late to add the actual player card and the function where you hit triangle to see the front of the card with the players picture, and then R1 and L1 to flip to the back where all the stats are????

Man, I would love that! I miss being able to actually see the payers photo on the card instead of just stats. Seems like it'd be an easy thing to add.

I would like to take that one step further, give us a way to print stuff. I would totally nerd out if I could print out my results!

Re: MLB 17 Feature Wishes?

I'm excited to hear about Franchise '17 on March 7th and 9th, but here are some updates that would be useful based on the '16's franchise mode:

• I'd love to see the game track defensive innings played and base all star voting accordingly (secondary positions) and even "train" players at a new position from time to time.
• HR/9 actually mattering in played games.
• Better bullpen AI and lefty righty sortable stats--seems these are only visible in a game?
• I'd like for AI teams to utilize sponsorships, sign free agents during season, and expand rosters well beyond 90, and most importantly, make call ups/promotions based not just on injuries; I still think that's how it is at least, from what I can see.
• Make manual fielding more realistic--make all animations available to this mode, and let us actually catch line drives to our OF.
• Tone WAY down the number of complete games and shutouts. Good grief!

Just keep a saved game from the end of the regular season, post season, etc. Just label them for easy reference later on. I've always done this with sport games from season to season.
