Re: OSFM 1.0 vs. 1.75: Which Contract Setup is Best For you?

I guess then, I wonder why they went with different contract values then the for 1.75. As opposed to default values but just corrected the number of years. The contracts all seem way lower than default contracts when you compare 1.5 to 1.75. I have no interest in the 1.0 and real contracts because i'm certain it'd imagine that would break the system over multiple seasons. You would think, default values would be best since that is based on the actual default SCEA values. I wasnt sure what prompted going the other way and lowering the values from the scea default. Maybe that's better, but to me it just seems like it's opening the possibility to break in the system in the long run. It's just not something that I've seen discussed here, it seems like everyone seems to reference 1.75 when referring to "default contracts" when they clearly are much lower than actual default contracts.

Not sure what you are talking about with the contracts as 1.75 is 1.50 with more fixes and the guys whos contract were originally missed in 1.5 adjusted. Other than that its the same.... so im assuming thats why be used 1.75, its the better one.

So there's no right answer here? Either will work out fine for me when I start my franchises this week? Or is there a brief cliffnotes version of the pros and cons of each?

Couldnt make it through the entire post...those trades in the the first part of the video are head-scratching, to say the least. It's not the players in the deals though, its the logic behind them. Also, Beltre to the Yankees for Bird and Holiday wouldnt happen, ever. Just sayin...

I'm the guy who made the video, and here is how I would best try and summarize:

After carefully reviewing the roster sets and their differences (mostly contracts), I saw very similar wonky things happening. This, to me, has far less to do with the roster sets themselves, and more to do with the game's trade engine still not truly understanding their team's pulse when deciding on who to retain and who to try and obtain.

There are a lot of factors that go into that, and frankly, it can drive you nuts. My advice was to find what you enjoy about the game (and baseball), and move forward with it. Don't let it eat you alive, because it will if you allow it.

I don't like 30-team control as I don't like to dabble, but I've turned it on this year as a "just in case" because technically you can undo a bad trade just by redoing it again.

Hope this helps! Go enjoy the game! I think I said something in the video to the affect of: If we expected perfection all of the time in our daily lives like we do in gaming, we'd never get out of bed.

Do we know which contracts 2.5 will use?
