Fictional Rosters 13

Re: Fictional Rosters 13

So far so good. Played Cards/Dodgers. Faces stances and deliveries are well done and quite varied. Looking forward to the full set.

Played a few games with the test roster, it was awesome! Thanks for all the hard work Comatose.

Thanks for this guys. We truly appreciate your feedback. One thing to keep in mind for those who play test:

The player ratings are not set in stone by any means, and will in fact be much easier to balance once all teams are done, so I have something to compare each team to. When all teams are complete, the final balance pass will include checking the real MLB rosters and making them somewhat comparable (same number of 99 rated 2B, number of pitchers who throw 95+; that sort of thing. In fact there will probably be many players underrated, in order to offer more room for growth and unpredictability).

As a side note, I may take today off. It's a dreary miserable rainy day here, and I also don't want to get burnt out.

Re: Fictional Rosters 13

I looked at these for a bit last night. Great work! I know this takes a lot of time. More time than I have.

One thing that I thought I'd mention. It may not matter to some. I don't like to see tall bulky players in the middle infield positions. Usually guys like that are put at other spots in the field. I know there have been exceptions to this rule in the major leagues, but it still looks a little funny to me when the 2nd baseman is taller than the 1st baseman, etc.

I didn't find a lot of examples of this in your set, but I think there was one 2nd baseman I saw that was a beast. It's just something I thought I'd mention to others going forward.

Thanks again!

I've re-done all hitters on OAK HOU MIN and COL along with detriot hitters now completed.
No two players should have the same name or batting stance.
I roster vaulted it under my username MR_RANDOM and it says beta v.1.2 if y'all wouldnt mind giving me feedback on my teams so I can "fix" anything you wouldnt like in the roster

The roster is going to be fantastic once its finished. Been playing these teams and you guys are doing a great job.

thank you any suggestions?

Re: Fictional Rosters 13

If I had any valid suggestions I would be the one doing the rosters. I think the attention to player accessories is a major plus. Sunglasses armor sweatbands eyeblack facial hair stuff like that adds to the fun. From the few games I played so far the teams are decently balanced no unfair pitching repertoires and no overpowered hitters. So I am happy with the progress.

Re: Fictional Rosters 13

Ok...This is no longer my project, so take this for what its worth. comatosedragon is in charge now so this is totally up to him.

I don't want real people on my fantasy roster! We had trouble with this in the past. Last year it was Garth Brooks and many other country singers playing for the Astros. It took me as the man in charge last year a lot of time to go through and get rid of all the ones I could find. Im sure a few probably slipped through but I did my best.

This year I DL the roster in progress and start a game with the Astros. Sure enough I see the names of a couple professional wrestlers. :/ I don't want CM Punk (Phil Brooks) or Shelton Benjamin on my fantasy rosters. I'm sure there are others, those two just jumped out at me as soon as the starting lineup for the Astros popped up.

As I said last year, If you want "real" people on your fantasy roster then wait til they are finished and add whomever you want! Don't force it on other people.

Now I realize that there are gonna be some names that match real people, by ACCIDENT. There are only so many names available, but to purposefully use names of celebrities is no ACCIDENT!

Now, again this is totally up to comatosedragon to decide what to do about this. Its his show now and he is doing a GREAT job!!!! I feel bad that he may now have to go back and do extra work because of this!

But we had this problem last year with Mr. Random and it caused me a LOT of extra work to fix his entries. He got upset that i altered his additions but WE ALL felt it was appropriate because the rules were clearly stated and discussed.

He eventually apologized for the problems and said he understood. Obviously, he did not. Or cared not, whatever the case may be.

Just thought I would bring this to light so everyone would at least know. If nothing is done about it, I wont say another word about it and just re-do the teams Mr. Random does on my own. Just like last year before releasing V1.

Re: Fictional Rosters 13

After the last post, I have read back a few posts where Mr. Random stated he is re-doing the teams he did.

If this problem has already been addressed then I apologize for throwing my little temper-tantrum.

As I said last year, Mr. Random is VERY talented especially in creating unique and personalized faces! After we had problems last year and then I saw some of the same things this year, I may have flew off the handle a bit. Especially since I have contributed NOTHING to this year's project.

If comatosedragon and Mr. Random have already worked these things out, then just view my post as a tired and cranky old man complaining about a FANTASY roster on a VIDEO GAME. lol

Seems kinda silly when you really think about it. :/

Re: Fictional Rosters 13

Yes slugg I am re editing my rosters. Some things get by from my roster to these but I'm going player by player to fix everything. Mainly because most players lack batting gloves.

Something's I want to point out About the giants roster is they have a fat and overweight rf who shouldn't be there and also numerous players with warrior eye black. And they're 5th starter is a sidearmer throwing 100 a few times which is rediculous
