Re: MLB 14 The Show OSFM Hybrid Roster - V2 Released

I have visited these forums for years and never have been inclined to create an account until tonight. I'm 40 years old and work full time along with being married with three children. I know the amount of time and dedication it takes to put together something like this so I can't tell you guys how much I appreciate this roster! I would never have the time to make these edits on my own with my game time being so limited due to the responsibilities of life. When I finally get time to play I want my game time to be maximized since it's so limited. To that end you guys have maximized my MLB gaming experience. There will always be something for someone to complain about but as far as I'm concerned this roster is excellent and if anything is off it's a matter of simple tweaking. Knight, Willard, Sean Jeezy, and the rest of you tremendous roster makers and rating input people take a bow because you guys make a good game simply fantastic!!! Thanks for all your hard work.

Re: MLB 14 The Show OSFM Hybrid Roster - V2 Released

For anyone that has run Sims would you mind divulging the following information?

What does progression look like? Any glaring differences?

Is adjusting the incoming draft classes a necessity or can you let them be?

Thank you!

Exactly!!!! It's my thoughts put into words, all though I would have been rambling on if I would of tried to say the same thing... Lol. No doubt tho, a serious thank you to all who have certainly poured their time into these roster projects!!!!

It's absolutely amazing how much differently these rosters play than the standard SCEA ones. I've seen hits and animations in one game that I've never seen previously this year until using this roster. Jeezy's pitch edits take this game to another level altogether. Incredible job Willard and Co.

Perfection can never be achieved.

Editors don't stop until they have it perfect.

See the problem here....??

Uses my pitch edits, claims them as his own. You're welcome! /s

Do you have a spreadsheet you would be willing to share for my own personal use of these pitch edits?

Almost forgot what the inside of a played game looked like...instead of only menu screens. STOKED that I get to start my 'chise. Coming soon to a dynasty thread near you!

Thanks again to Willard and Co. for leading this project and seeing it through in an incredibly timely manner.

That's a question for jeezy and his pitch edits thread. We didn't compile the pitch data--jeezy did all that. We just took his data and entered it into the game (and by we I mean authenic and ILFT mainly).

Great roster man, really looking forward to starting a franchise with these.

One question though, and I don't mean to sound like an *******, but did you forget to edit Adam Eaton and Tyler Flowers? Or is there a reason why they're 67 ovr and 68 ovr respectively? It's just my opinion that they're better players than that, and I'll leave it alone if you do think they are around that skillset, but I thought I'd just bring it to your attention to maybe look at them a little closer.

Tyler Flowers has been hitting at .293 (over .300 before a ****ty series in Cleveland) this year, much improved from his .195 avg from last year, with .354 OBP which was also a huge improvement from last year at .247.

Adam Eaton isn't lighting it up with only a .267 BA but he has a respectable .329 OBP and 15 RBI's at the lead-off position to go along with some pretty good defense. And I don't think he should be 2 overall points worse than Alejandro De Aza who has a .177 BA with a .240 OBP. The only thing I can really see that he does better is 2 more RBI's on 30 more plate appearances and running the bases.

Again, I was only wanting to bring this to your attention. If you still feel they should stay at their respective overalls, I understand and I'll just make the edits myself. (I also recommend taking a look at Dayan Viciedo too though, who I also think shouldn't be worse than De Aza.)

Re: MLB 14 The Show OSFM Hybrid Roster - V2 Released

It's really hard to look at two months from a guy who hit .195 last year and call for a ratings boost, lol. IMO, I think a 68 OVR is too generous for a guy like Flowers...if OVR meant anything special. Remember to look at specific attributes, they are more important than OVR

I'm sure Willard and the gang will look at it, though don't expect any new releases in the immediate future--the team is actually going to play the game a little.

I'd suggest to those who have minor gripes about your team...use the roster base and edit it to your liking. A lot of the "I think this guy is underrated" is often a personal opinion not shared by all (especially not by the ZiPS projections).

Re: MLB 14 The Show OSFM Hybrid Roster - V2 Released

Love these rosters!

Only two concerns are

1. Draft class players coming in way to high due to lowered overalls

2. Players not asking for enough money in FA and throwing the team budgets out of whack.

I know many of you SIM a lot, have you folks seen any glaring issues with either of the above concerns? If so, is there an easy "workaround"?

Thanks!!
