(which is already a thing if you just manually injure players)

Which was a gigantic pain in the ***. I was planning on just not doing that year, as I didn't feel the juice was worth the squeeze. But with it being an actual in game option, I'm doing it.

I wonder if they’ll allow you to use a custom roster with this feature?

If not, kinda feel like it’ll be unused by majority of your franchise players who care about realism (which are the ones who want injuries).

As I believe most franchise players use a community roster based on what they like.

Really fired up for next week now.

As a presentation fiend the last 15 minutes pressed all my correct buttons. Crowd sounds much more realistically reactive, those improved regional presentations are just, wow, and ump cam! A little disappointed that they have yet to remove the Yankee Stadium auxiliary scoreboards but everything left me excited. Need the preload to start asap so I can sit and stare at it till next Friday.

I wish every team had an “identity.” Would love to see teams focus on pitching, speed, defense, aggressive baserunning, etc. every team drafts, plays the same.

That's been a longstanding issue with sports games overall.

A wishlist item I wish they had was instituting some form of quirk, or some quirks that can really help define the composition of the organization you are a part of. Like maybe a "Moneyball" quirk gives your org an boost in scouting or a boost in contract negotiation odds with a free agent, or a quirk like "Heavy Spender" where the AI for a GM is aggressive in signing guys with big contract deals, for example.

Just some ideas

The pitch clock looks like it is there. In one clip, it pops up for a moment at 10 seconds before going back to the pitch count. I wonder if it only shows up for 10 seconds and maybe the last couple of seconds?

I am really curious to see how that works.

I wish they would have talked about it. I would rather have them display it full time.

Kind of odd that they didn’t talk about the changes to player faces and the update to the lighting system I was really looking forward to them elaborating on that further

After this premiere I come away with mixed feelings. I like the new presenation elements, although I was hoping for a 3rd big league theme and got excited when they mentioned they had 8 this year, but that balloon was quickly deflated when the two major league themes were the same and found out the other 6 are 5 for the storylines modes and one for the minor leagues, which is cool with its own announcer.

I like how the game plays on the field as its essentially '23 with improvements to fielding and pitching was tinkered with, so couple that with the new presentation wipes, scorebug, and improved crowds (including signs) and I can find myself easily getting into a franchise in '24 and enjoying my time playing through it.

I like the additions, although few, to the franchise off the field, most notably the Prospect Promotion Incentive and player awards on cards. But..........unless Y2Y saves returns in '25, these new features lack "shelf life", for lack of better phrase, because I don't sim so therefore, the chances of truly appreciating the depth these award trackings can provide become short lived, unless I were to stick with '24.

There were a few things that I was so much hoping would be added to franchise this year, and to be honest PPI and player card awards were two things on said list, but not having editable coaches/managers, not having expanded ST rosters, not having expanded rosters overall, not having the ability (unless they just didn't mention it) to access prospects during the season anytime I want, instead of just on Sundays, not having seasonal history stat tracking (World Series Champions from beginning to present), amongst other things, really deflated my excitement. We are on the 4th installment of the game without Y2Y saves and when they overhauled the draft last year, I thought ok here we go, it may only be one significant feature per year, but at least we're moving on/catching up however you want to view it. But we got the draft overhaul last year and now this year, it seems we missed out on that one "big project".

I don't know, I just was hoping for more. And while I am sure that I will enjoy '24 when I got into playing it, starting over, again, is getting harder and harder to do. Because I miss out on seeing stories developing in my current franchise play out, and in a manner of speaking are doing the "been there done that" when it comes to the offseason because I experienced these players in free agency already.

I was really hoping to be all in on starting over with '24 because the gameplay, presentation, and franchise additions/improvements would leave me no choice, but as of now, I'm stuck in the middle trying to decide how to best spend my '24 vitrual baseball gaming season.

Damn

"RTTS is no longer tied into DD".

Not 24 hours after I decide to stick to 23 do they announce the biggest issue I've had. Looks like I'll be preordering. All I play is RTTS. Every at bat/fielding opportunity of every game. Plus with the Pirates having more potential than I've seen them have in a long time, I'd love to play with updated rosters since it's so difficult to update rosters manually which is still a major gripe I have. Let me release a player to free agency without having to get a player back in return and vice versa. But now I'm cautiously excited.

I only really want it up there when it's relevant. In The Show and in real games. I don't need a constantly ticking clock on my screen.
