O.S. Full Minors 2010

Re: O.S. Full Minors 2010

Yea I just feel that if the O.S. Full Minors Guys are going to put so much time in these rosters, I feel that hopefully we can wait and get everything figured out before they start the rosters.

Re: O.S. Full Minors 2010

I'm sure they are doing it BUT... do Knight and anybody else editting rosters have ratings written down already? It seems this whole endeavor would go MUCH faster if they had ratings adjustments done (or at least started) before the actual roster update (that they'll actually use) is released. Then they could just 'read' them off of a paper and apply them immediately without having to tweak a whole bunch...

I'm sure they're doing this though...

Re: O.S. Full Minors 2010

can't wait for these Knight. Last year's effort was outstanding and I know you guys can deliver something just as good, if not better, this year.

Re: O.S. Full Minors 2010

i don't feel this project should be held back simply because there are almost 150 A potential players. like some people have been saying, not EVERY A potential player turns into albert pujols and roy halladay. if there are too many A's, just decrease their stats, if they have a 20 contact vs RHP, it's very unlikely they're going to eventually jump to a 99. if every A potential player became an animal in sports video games, by now this issue would have already been raised in past years, but in knight's set last year not even tommy hanson maxed out after 2 years. that's just my 2 cents, i just don't think it's as URGENT a concern as some people are making it out to be.

Re: O.S. Full Minors 2010

A lot goes into these edits. Knight happened to be one of the people to attend the community event and he had his notebook handy. We discussed the possibilities of 24-27 A rated potential players which were hand picked by me. The A potential mess up really throws us off and its a big deal, I mean we could work around, but we would prefer to have this perfect as would the community here. Just hang in there and we will get it figured out. We are at a standstill ourselves, so....

VERY understandable in that event, if you had an exact plan in mind, then there really is no reason to rush this and go against it. i'll be just as excited using these then as i would a week earlier if you did it now, you guys do an AMAZING job with these and i really appreciate it, it adds SO much to this game.

Thank you guys for all your hard work. I will wait as long as it takes for all the issues to be ironed out. I am kind of a stat junkie as I know you guys are that work on the rosters so getting it right is first and foremost not how fast it gets done. Hopefully SCEA guys get it all worked out quickly.

Re: O.S. Full Minors 2010

I just hope whatever patch Sony comes up with doesn't effect all the work that Knight and his crew are putting into the rosters like it did last year. Knight does all of this on his own time as well as everyone else just for the glory of the game. If SCEA screws this up again I will be pissed.

Re: O.S. Full Minors 2010

I for one have no problem waiting for SCEA to fix the rosters a bit. As long as they adress the issue which hasn't been the case so far. I appreciate all the work guys.

Re: O.S. Full Minors 2010

From what i can tell after testing this new update through multiple seasons and franchises, i do not see any real whacked out numbers....A's turn to B's and even C's and D's and vice versa, I think the thing is any excess A' pitching prospects put in Class A ball rosters and then let them progress or regress and by the time they reach MLB half of them wont be A's anymore....I say we take this roster and run with it, there is no guarantee its gonna get any better....

Re: O.S. Full Minors 2010

Knight & KSig

just dled the latest update and despite the abundance of A's among the pitchers, especially the fake minor league players, I think SCEA did a nice job of fixing all of the potential problems...now there are a few questions w/ ratings, say with the Reds they have Nick Masset (outstanding in '09) at a D & Wilkin Castilla at a A (hurt and inconsistent most of his career)...a little funky but as long as the potentials have room to change its not a HUGE issue w/ me as a loyal show franchise player...

...a ton of the younger players no longer have the weird C/D/F like in years past (Homer Bailey, Kendry Morales, etc.) and some older players finally get more of the C's (32 yr. old Kip Wells for example - B last year)

the only real concern I have is whether the patch that has been promised & if it will impact the set or not...I'd say pm Kolbe or Russell and find out their thoughts and proceed depending on what they say...but the rosters look good to me and I could knock out the Reds team tonight based on the '09 end of season set & past rosters...

Re: O.S. Full Minors 2010

My only issue is there is going to be 400+ D position players and only 150+ A/B/C position players not using any created players.

There is going to be sooo many guys that should be better and what are the chances that a D guy will go up? Has anyone done some extensive siming to see what the percentage is on this?

The ratings you give the guys will be key in the roster set and will be the major player here and I have no doubt that it can be done with great results.

Re: O.S. Full Minors 2010

I completely agree with the rest of you, but here is what I am worried about potential wise. I am afraid that if we create 500 players that some of the c,d guys that may move up the ladder may be ousted by the games intelligence generator, which means all these good minor leaguers will be replaced by SCEA fake minors guys. Those guys are annoying and makes for a very unrealistic playing experience Franchise wise. I have also come to the conclusion that the players like Bailey that are D's are because they are going to be played with by users and their ability may increase as well as their potential. What did you find out from the simming Ridin?
