re: Community Day Questions, Answers, and Impressions

I'm not sure anyone answered this question and if someone did I apologize ahead of time. My question is retractable roof are they in or out? If in will we have the ability to choose if the roof is open or closed? Or will the weather play a factor? Thanks in advance.

Some cool new late additions.

The trade screen will no longer have the interest bar(that would easily indicate wether a trade would be accepted or not)
There will be a "reply" that will hint and then tell you that you will recieve the answer in a few days.
You will then get the e-mail sometime later in that week giving you their reply with the answer.
MUCH more realistic than the previous set up IMO.

Also with the e-mail notifications will be your hot/struggling players in the minor leagues.....and now(newly added) will be a link to go directly to that manage screen to check out the player and possibly make a roster move with him if you like.(previous to today...you had to back out of the screen and go into the player card or manage roster screen)

There is a ticker that scrolls under the linescore now....
It will contain a good amount of franchise info...including
-Game time temp
-Team season W-L record and what place the team is in ...in the standings
-Previous play(ie...DOUBLE (12))
-The umpire crew
-The base coaches
-The game attendance
-League leaders(ie...HR, SB...RBI ...etc)
-Hit streaks(if there is one and when one is continued)

Still working on franchise scores(cross fingers and do a little voodoo! )

A lot of awesome stuff here, but this franchise news is bad ***! REALLY dig the new trade set-up. Man...I thought I played 08 and 09 too much...lol. With all the control they added, I'm going to become ghostly from the lack of sun!

Love the trade feature! Now we'll have to sweat it out for a few before we get a confirmation. Love it!

A ticker like where the info scrolls left to right and is continuous? Or are you saying one bit of info will pop up once in awhile and then goes away?

If you select just the option for every ball that gets hit into play, you will see all the offensive plays from the bench (unless you're hitting or on base). You will see all defensive plays from your position on defense.

ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!! Thanks for answering...

The waiting for a trade response via email is awesome. It really makes you think about whether the trade is fair or not. I wonder if you also receive emails requesting trades and how long you have to respond.

re: Community Day Questions, Answers, and Impressions

CubFan has asked this question numerous times throughout the thread, I want to know this too, can someone finally answer this!

This is NOT how you ask a question... For those wondering what the deal was.
It's not that they ignored it but...hold onto your hats... maybe the guy with the answer hasn't seen it yet? Since they each really focused on different parts... just because 1 guy is answering questions doesn't mean he has all the answers.

Pops up under the linescore(where you now see the HOMERUN!!! indication pop up under the linescore)...it will be static for short messages and scroll the other stuff(league leader)
VERY cool.

We've already got the franchise scores in a overlay box that pops up after certain innings....but we're getting closer to getting them in the ticker!

Can you see if Wrigley received the fixes from the stadium feedback thread?

How are the little cut scenes affected by Real Time Presentation (ala silent treatment in the dugout, pitcher throwing his glove into the dugout, etc.)

Are double plays actually broken up? Will the ss or 2b drop the ball, have a bad throw? etc.

How does the ivy in wrigley look overall?

The Community Day response thread said the bleachers did not make it in the game at Wrigley Field

No to all. A retractable roof would mean a new stadium skeleton. You just can't add the roof to the existing skeleton. Perhaps next year on the open close, but it would mean designing a new stadium to show the roof closed.

Oh okay I got it. Thanks Jim much appreciated.

re: Community Day Questions, Answers, and Impressions

It is the way you asked, but oh well if you can't see that was wrong. That is cool. we were just raised different. It is all good.

Dude what are talking about? Your characterizing me through the internet because of a comment I made with big bold letters? (I'm 17 and I was raised right, a comment on the internet doesn't mean I would spaz out IRL)

I'll let it go, sure it was kind of immature and I understand there was hard work done at CD, again it was a Yes or no or don't know type question.

at no point did I write "CD day people are illiterate" and I did not mean that by posting the question with a huge font. I just wanted the question to be finally answered some way because it's been ignored or look past in several threads.

again I am sorry for being "ignorant or immature" if you want to put it as that

Let's just play some friggin ball

Hopefully next year we get the bleachers done. I think having the fans throw the oppositions HR ball back would be cool too
