Re: Community Day....FRANCHISE and EDITOR

Not sure if this was asked but can we or will we ever be able to adjust MLB service time for created players only?

I do want to ask them to add a few things(this being one of them, I have asked for this before), but as of right now.....when gen players are created(even at the draft) they get built in minor league service time(under the hood) so this might get tricky.
It's one of the reasons that I try and have the guys who help with O.S. line up ages with the players they are creating. When I import....it's always the potential and age of the guy I want to create.

As you guys can tell....I basically have a Blitzkrieg mentality to asking for things from the devs.
Yes......they hide from me.

Re: Community Day....FRANCHISE and EDITOR

Don't know if it was asked already, but will there be a "trade finder" option in the game?

So if I wanted to trade player ___ and player ___ together, I could select both guys, and then be able to search for what other teams offer. Its so much easier/faster doing trading with trade finder(like in nba and madden) compared to trying to find trades manually(like in nhl and mlb)

This game definitely needs a player finder tool, so you can just type the players name in and find him that way. Rather than scrolling thru hundreds of players.

O but you apparently dislike me Knight? Maybe you should tone that mentality down? I am as big a fan as you are and just because I express my emotion on things that need obvious attention (grass is seen and admired by billions of fans) does not make me some kind of weirdo.

Hey Knight and tabarnes, did you guys notice if the logic of the end of year awards, such as the Gold Glove awards, were improved/fixed?

Re: Community Day....FRANCHISE and EDITOR

Hi Knight,

A 50,000 foot question...did they do anything that would allow for easier overall editing this year for you and the other roster makers? I mean, for those editors who want to create oldtime rosters, it will still be the same process of editing minor leaguers and then importing them to the MLB level?

They did not add a way to export an entire team did they? What would be great is if they had a utility that allowed you to import a player from MLB11 and spit out a new MLB12 version. This way, only new attributes that have been added for the 12 version would need to be edited as opposed to having to re-create the player from scratch.

Any light you can shed on if the create a player/create a team process will be any "easier"?

Thanks!

I shot him a PM about temps/sleeves.
Maybe they could lower the threshold.

Re: Community Day....FRANCHISE and EDITOR

Award selection is a little better. I do not think its straight alphabetical now. It still needs some work since occasionally you will get back up players winning gold gloves based on number of errors. I know some of the devs have talked about expanding the awards like silver slugger...so hopefully it will be tweaked as franchise gets the "love."

[ARoid1313]

Can we now import or export MLB players ? ( non created players)
Also any word if the "face" glitch is back for when creating players last year ?
Can we import players from 11 to 12?

Yes...this is exactly what we're asking for. I THINK we might see it. The highlight addition this year was just last minute in order to help us a little with trying to find players we know should be somewhere, but aren't because of a trade. Just a "bone" so to say.

This game definitely needs a player finder tool, so you can just type the players name in and find him that way. Rather than scrolling thru hundreds of players.

Yes...agreed.

O but you apparently dislike me Knight? Maybe you should tone that mentality down? I am as big a fan as you are and just because I express my emotion on things that need obvious attention (grass is seen and admired by billions of fans) does not make me some kind of weirdo.

I definitely do not dislike you. I don't know you. There are maybe three people on the planet that I can say I dislike(one might be on this site....but it's not you!!!). The difference in what you are saying here is...when I'm blitzkrieging .........it's not about the same thing over and over. I give Aaron the suggestion maybe once or twice and move on the next order of business. It's things from this site that everyone suggests that I'm bombing the SCEA guys with. For instance....MoM is exactly the same as last year...I knew and know that it won't be touched...so I didn't mention it to anyone once. And that's MY baby in this game.

No the import team did not make it. I don't know if I was supposed to say, but that was supposed to be the next step in the process(I think it was apparent) .....as well as a team vault. I think both might still make it in.....but that remains to be seen.
The editor is the same....as well as the process.

Awesome your the man Knight

Let's hope....we'll see if it was too late or not.

No...I wish they would allow this...
No
No

Re: Community Day....FRANCHISE and EDITOR

will there be a hiring and firing feature meaning if your not doing a good job with your Franchise could be fired and have to wait for offers from another team ?

Not back in yet.
We fired up '09 and saw the GM goals page and man do I miss that.

Re: Community Day....FRANCHISE and EDITOR

Too bad about the pitcher confidence not being saved properly...Thanks for finding out and responding Knight! You may remember I am strictly a MOM guy also. You say it has been untouched...may be a dumb question but I gotta ask We will get all the new ball physics, OSD, popups, etc as the regular mode I am assuming? Thanks again bud
