Re: How many teams can you control?
I wasn't clear in my post. He had mentioned The Show.
I wonder how this game handles "forced trades"? Let's say I control the
Padres
Dodgers
Giants
DBacks
Let's say Boston trades Manny to Oakland for Kielty (I know, I know, but indugle me,lol).
Could you use the Padres and trade a player to Boston for Manny, trade Manny to Oakland for Kielty, then trade Kielty back to Boston for the Padres player and not have it totally mess up the lineups?Comment

Re: How many teams can you control?
Here we go again, Inkcil. We seem to be the only two people on the planet who really give a crap about this feature. I guess I'll go without a baseball game for the second year in a row. For me, I like to have the ability to play with any team in my franchise. I like being able to play or watch the World Series or LCS even if my team isnt involved.
Inkcil, this just does not seem to be a priority for game companies. It seems like EA is the only company that realizes that this is an important feature fro some of us. Live, Madden and NCAA all have that feature. 2k only includes it in College Hoops.Samsung PN60F8500 PDP / Anthem MRX 720 / Klipsch RC-62 II / Klipsch RF-82 II (x2) / Insignia NS-B2111 (x2) / SVS PC13-Ultra / SVS SB-2000 / Sony MDR-7506 Professional / Audio-Technica ATH-R70x / Sony PS3 & PS4 / DirecTV HR44-500 / DarbeeVision DVP-5000 / Panamax M5400-PM / Elgato HD60Comment

Re: How many teams can you control?
There was a way to do that in 2K4, where you could play/watch any game on the schedule. Just because you couldn't do front office stuff doesn't mean you could watch/play such games. If that feature is okay with you, I would really hope that they put that in again next year.Comment

Re: How many teams can you control?
ink,
Since the show isn't giving us total team control either I guess its back to HH 04 (if i want all my needs/wants fulfilled) or I have to find a copy of mvp 05 on PC.
So you mean you want to be able to play as any of the teams (all of them)?
You can still make all the trades and stuff for all the teams, do the call ups and send downs, etc.
AI in-game logic (waching CPU vs. CPU) seems different from AI out-of game logic (when you press a boutton to get a simmed score and stats), and I truly enjoy the former when it is a game w/ good gameplay.Unofficial OS Ambassador of "CPU vs. CPU"

But this is especially disappointing with MLB because they gave the total control option in 2k5. Four sucks (but it's better than 1 or 2). I was hoping they would at least double it to 8 like in the NBA game.
Someone said MAdden Next-gen didn't have the feature in Franchise mode...that you couldn't pick a random game and leave the controller in the middle and watch that game. I guess they were mistaken.
I just never understood why this option is such a problem now when it used to be in all sports games years ago.Unofficial OS Ambassador of "CPU vs. CPU"

Re: How many teams can you control?
I don't either. I used to like playing at least one game in each of the ballparks, kind of like my own "Sunday night baseball" because I couldn't play a whole season.Pitchers and Catchers Report; Life Worth Living AgainComment

I remember playing Madden 03, I think it was, and I was a few years into my franchise. At that point I was only playing my games, but then I noticed a CPU-generated rookie QB named Ken Thomas was tearing up the league. He played for the Cardinals and I didn't play the Cardinals all year, so I watched one of their games just to see what he was all about. Ever since then, I always look for the ability to play or watch any game on the schedule.
One of my only complaints about MVP 05 was the inability to play any game. Luckily, someone made a mod for the PC version that lets you switch teams, so I might just stick with that game yet another year.Comment

Re: How many teams can you control?
However, what I WOULD like to see added is an ability to WATCH the playoff games as a non-participant...
Let's say I get ousted in the Wildcard Round... or didn't even MAKE the playoffs. I'd like to have an option to be able to watch, and maybe even skip after I started watching a game. Only for the playoffs, mind you.
Me, personally, I probably wouldn't do this for anything other than the World Series, but still.Comment

Re: How many teams can you control?
To each his own I guess. I would rather have the choice play a Yankess-Redsox game with the division on the line than a game then be forced to play only with my team no matter what (especially if im out of the pennant race). Like I said it doesnt matter to most people thats why its not a priority. Doesnt take away from the fact that 2k5 had the feature and theytook it out for no reasonComment

Re: How many teams can you control?
I know. NBA 2k7 having control over 8 was better than just one...at least I was able to set it up so I coudl see Labron, Duncan, Wade, Nash, Kidd, Carmelo and Kobe anytime I wanted.
But this is especially disappointing with MLB because they gave the total control option in 2k5. Four sucks (but it's better than 1 or 2). I was hoping they would at least double it to 8 like in the NBA game.

I dont understand either..this feature was in Tecmo Super Bowl.Comment

Re: How many teams can you control?
I give a crap about this feature too. With every sports game, it's one I look for. I hate the feeling that my team is the only one that plays any real games. Especially in baseball, there are some teams that your team will never play in a season, so these teams end up being numbers only.
