Re: 2014 OS FICTIONAL rosters

Hopefully by the time the ps4 version drops, I'll have a top 100 prospects list that I can then begin creating. Hopefully I could have them done in about two weeks but definitely by the end of May. I could then drop my list of how I would rank them if wanted

Sounds like a good plan

Will add another element of realism to these rosters.

A Top 100 prospect list sounds great, but I know I've been putting in some work on creating AAA and AA talent, with a mix of a few possible future stars/impact players, so how could those guys work in with your top list?

Unless there becomes too many top prospects it should be ok. The game itself decides who the top 50 are and get the icon. Hopefully there will enough of your guys used as well and it all works out..BTW are you using the spreadsheet anymore?

Yea, I'm sure we'll have a "beta" version out once we're pretty much done so most of the contributors can test out and all.

I was using the spreadsheet, I think maybe created 15-20 guys, but this whole week I've just been making my own creations. Maybe I'll go back to the spreadsheet for a few more players at some point.

I agree, as long as we are all contributing. I've been working on mostly AA players this week, with mix of AAA guys too and low class A guys with A or B potential that may only max out out at AA
Or AAA. I'm just trying to get a good mix of minor leaguers, since I'm sure we're not really starving for MLB talent at this point.

Re: 2014 OS FICTIONAL rosters

I thought I'd swing by and offer my assistance on these rosters if it is needed. I won't be able to do anything until I get the PS4 version probably sometime around Thursday, but after that I should be able to create at least a couple each and every night for at least the following week after that.

So if my help's needed at all just let me know how to go about doing it and I'll let you all know when I get my hands on my copy and when I'll start contributing. I absolutely love the idea of these rosters.

Contributions would be greatly appreciated. Just pm creator2700 and he'll be able to give you more details.

I could always take a look at your guys beforehand. I really was just doing it to let people know the guys that I was going to create so they'd have some idea....

...... because I didn't know they did this. Missed last year's game and don't have the ps3 version.

If there appears that there are too many, moving the potentials down on some of my lower guys will balance it back out, no problem

Ok, I gotcha. I haven't created too many, probably a handful. I'm mostly on creating pitchers of all types and leagues and also minor league position players that suck lol. The lower minors got to get filled somehow

Re: 2014 OS FICTIONAL rosters

Let's keep WB1214's list separate from Farmer joe's guys... If need be I can always nerf potential on a few guys.

Re: 2014 OS FICTIONAL rosters

Absolutely. Hopefully you and me doing the minors now can help speed up the process.


Also, creator did you make the majors with edited versions of guys with service time? I know that the original plan was to not, but since we were making this as THE Fictional set, I was wondering if you did. Doesn't really matter, just wondering

Unfortunately I am not. When I started, there were not enough editable guys with service time... If I were to go back and do that to the standards I hold myself to on these, I'd need over 50 player templates made up, and I'd basically have to redo all my spreadsheets... Once I imported all the players for a second time and redid the spreadsheets, we'd be looking at a good couple weeks of work right there.

I considered it, but I honestly don't think we'd be able to play with these til at least late August if that was the plan...

If The Show ever lets us easily edit contracts and service time, I will definitely come back to create a new roster set, but for now, this is the best we can do while getting it done in a timely manner.
