MLB The Show 20: Franchise Mode Rebranding, a Predictable But Nice Touch

Re: MLB The Show 20: Franchise Mode Rebranding, a Predictable But Nice Touch

I think you are gonna be in luck.. looking at the team screen where we pick our teams and users.. Marlins are not selected as USER and you can replace them with custom team by pressing R1. Cannot guarantee this, but it seems like it would be highly likely that since its not tied to user selection, you could replace them all.

I notice they begin from the new franchise menu. I'd gladly pass on full minors to be able to create a custom team or import a custom team from the 19 vault in my carry over franchise.

I'll start anew if I have to but would prefer to carry over the existing franchise and then create the custom team if that's an option.

Re: MLB The Show 20 Video - Franchise Mode Customization Suite

I have a question since I never played DD. With this rebranding thing, is there a workaround for relocation?

Will I be able to pick the Rays, update an Expos logo from the vault (there will be plenty I guess), switch the name for MTL Expos & play in a generic stadium?

If so, it's still not relocation but I'd be happy to start with that, That's the only thing that would make me drop my 4 year NYY franchise (I play every single pitch!) since I'm French Canadian

That's what I'm hoping to do to; "move" the Rays to Montreal and bring back the Expos. I was hoping to undo the Astros/Brewers deal too, but doesn't sound like that will be possible. Expected, but a let down nonetheless.

I am pumped for tomorrows stream. The reason?

Bacons Fictional Roster.

If we do 30 team control and have the ability to create 30 custom teams?

The immersion can be off the hook for a Fictional Franchise this year.

As far as real life teams? I can see doing a rebranded Miami franchise easy.

I’d like to import one teams worth of Bacons fictional roster and put them all on one team. Rebrand said team and play is as an expansion team. Put the fictional team up against the real major league.

I'm curious if they would expand rosters to 110-120 cause how will they decide the 15 minor leaguers in single A?

As for under the hood stuff, I only have a few simple requests. First of all, I hope they have tested the hell out of importing a franchise from MLB 19. Each year there are some things that are a bit floopy when a franchise is carried over.



Next, track minor league stats.



Finally, and this should be easy as can be, is to add an option to alter the start times of games. After one season of starting a franchise, all the games are basically 1 PMish and 7 PMish, no option for late afternoon games and appropriate times for playoff games. We can change the weather, the theme, and whether or not retractable roofs are open or closed, so how hard could this be to add? Particularly since if you just play a single, non-franchise game, you can choose the start time. Nothing worse than a west coast team playing in the world series and having their home games start at 7PM Pacific Time. The October shadows are a huge part of the true feeling of playoff games.

I forgot to mention that I will forever be asking for Tiger Stadium to be in the Classic Stadium list until it's there!

These headaches could be mitigated somewhat if they would allow us the functionality of:

1) Exporting players from a franchise WITHOUT having cpu roster control on

OR

2) Allowing the export of a roster (or individual teams) from franchise mode.

For the life of me, I have never been able to figure out why player export had to be tied to cpu roster control. Probably old code, but it's been this way since the beginning and makes no sense.

Which at the very least opens up the possibility of creating your own league, or even single A.

Same as always. Try to get as many of the teams top prospects in as possible. Obviously not everyone will make it in,(if there is only 15 spots still, won't know until today) but we will try our best.

You may want to re-brand half the league because I am 100% sure many other teams have been stealing signs with technology as well. The Astros got caught because a former scorned players blew the whistle.

This is not an isolated incident. It is more teams than you probably think too.

And I am not an Astros fan.....but it is already getting tiresome all the ribbing.

I think we can all move on.

Looks like aaa and aa will have 26 man rosters. If same number of total spots then A will have fewer.

Not to hijack the thread about this but their the ones that are at the center of attention and their owner couldn't even admit they had an advantage today.

They are sorry they got caught, not that they did it.

You know why? Because many other teams are doing it too. It is far from over.

And no it does not make it right. I think it was and is despicable to blatantly cheat using technology to steal signs.

Hinch.....I feel for him. But he could have stopped it and he did not. He was a great manager.....and he allowed the lunatics to run the asylum. He got exactly what he deserved. I don't think you will ever see him in MLB ever again.

But this is going to go deeper if MLB wants it to. Question is.....will they put more black eye's on their game, which already has viewership issues.

Who knows.

Anyway like you I do not want to derail the thread.

So this “buzzer” thing got me thinking. Why not turn it around so the pitcher has a buzzer and the catcher can pass through the pitch he wants with a clicker or something [emoji2962]
