Re: Weird potentials
I love the Show...but lets be honest. It isn't about screwing up the future franchise...that's reaching way too much.
They want some control so you have reason to buy next year's game. With Knight's rosters and the ability to edit potential...they're just afraid you won't have a need to drop $60 next year.
It sucks...but at the end of the day they need to make moneyComment

Re: Weird potentials
Looking at that makes seeing the OVL more important. Scutaro (37) and Vogelsong (35) are A potential but their OVL is 85 and 86. Thus, it tells us they are declining because of age, as someone said peak years are now 28-31, which doesn't look good for Beltre rated 96. I guess he is going to have a very bad year.Comment

Re: Weird potentials
In theory he should play to his ratings this first season, then decline a bit the next year and so on. Not to mention some people are getting way too caught up on the OVR rating, the ratings that matter most are the individual ratings. I mean, Beltre could drop 5 OVR points but play very similar to how he had previously if the appropriate ratings stay similar.Looking at that makes seeing the OVL more important.

Re: Weird potentials
Don't think it's that. The game lives on it's back of thee box features and reputation, a small switch like that is not gunna effect sales.I love the Show...but lets be honest. It isn't about screwing up the future franchise...that's reaching way too much.

Re: Weird potentials
Once the game comes out I would expect a few.Comment

Re: Weird potentials
maybe...although i think it is a pretty big addition for a ton of people. I think you might be surprised at how many sales they lose the first few weeks if rosters were completely editable.Comment

Peak performance years for MLB players is actually 24/25-27/28.Looking at that makes seeing the OVL more important. Scutaro (37) and Vogelsong (35) are A potential but their OVL is 85 and 86.

Re: Weird potentials
You really should see regression starting after 27/28....just being honest about factual analysis. The idea that 28-31 is peak is factually incorrect.
Player have their best seasons ages 24-28. After that, numbers regress.
ETA: Yeah, I am with you though, in the situation of late bloomers. I don't think ANY players should be going up after 30/31, and MOST players should already be regressing at age 29.Last edited by hjgilber; 03-04-2013, 04:56 PM.Comment
