OSFM release day?

[ebtparkes]

I saw a previous post today confirming OSFM rosters. I was just wondering if anyone had an idea if they would be available release day or not. Thanks in advance

Re: OSFM release day?

It will be a massive wait no Y2Y saves or importing rosters so that means creating players from scratch and having to wait and rely on SDS updates for guys like Matt Moore etc. so be in it for the long wait after this delayed release as well. this is the worst year for it to be delayed.

you probably looking at June or July this year (my guess of course) where in the past it could be done within 2 to 4 weeks.

Re: OSFM release day?

We seem to ve forgetting that even though there is no y2y saves and important roster feature, that there still is full minors on the default roster(unless i missed where they removed this).Full minors was a new feature last year and could be improved on greatly this season, making fewer players needing to be created or corrected. We also havnt seen any information on defult rosters or ratings as far as i am aware. Point being guys like scott will work extra hard like always and maybe some of the work will be predone for them by sandiego stidios.

Re: OSFM release day?

This is something that I haven’t seen confirmed for this year. Last year obviously full minors was a feature, but I haven’t seen them mention it at all this year. I realize the out of the box full minors roster was lacking for a lot of people, But if the release rosters are still at least in someway including the top prospects in some organizations, that is better than nothing.

Has anyone seen anything posted whether or not ridens and the rest of the osfm team helped work on the full minors for the release roster this year like they did last year?

Re: OSFM release day?

Full minors are not full minors 10 fake class a A = 300 fake players that have to be created from scratch, and expect at least 3 to 5 per team of other missing players.

Then the missing vets waiting for sds updates for them ect

So just remember that it’s gonna take a lot of time this work. The team isn’t as big as it was too wish knight was organising it

Re: OSFM release day?

Oh yeah, absolutely. I think the question though, is are real minor league players, any of them, included this year. I realize they won't be perfect out of the box and recreating the true OSFM full minors will be daunting no matter what. But it does worry me that on no stream anywhere did they say that there would be real minor leaguers this year, like they did last year. That's going to be a much greater task, one that for those of us on here that have been around for along time, can appreciate how much work that takes each year for this team back before there were carry over saves.

Personally, I'm fine using the out of the box rosters with the "full minors" which really weren't full such as the release roster last year. I just wish SDS would have confirmed they were in fact part of the game this year, and the fact that they've been silent about it has me pretty worried there won't be real minor leaguers at launch.

I’m pretty sure with some leaked streams that happened that AAA and AA guys are there like last year just not class A guys I just read that it’s 93 man rosters too so... where looking at 400+ players to be created from scratch here.., to me the true release date of this game is when those rosters are out haha. But realistically we really are looking at June July here with that work
And more roster updates will be out too by then to export missing vets

Re: OSFM release day?

This is why the "A" roster, which collects no stats, should allow you to import/export during the first season of a franchise. There's no reason you shouldn't be able to start your franchise day one, then import new added rookies onto your A ball team over fake players, when its not going to affect the stats either way. How this feature hasn't been adopted yet I'll never understand. I swear to god, in the PS3 era, you used to be able to do this. Drives me nuts its not in the game anymore.

That being said, maybe this is the year I just suck it up and go with default rosters. The OSFM rosters are amazing, but I'm a perfectionist, and I reset my franchise every year like 10 times with new OSFM releases, and in the end never make it out of the first month of the season before giving up altogether. As much as I absolutely love their work, my inability not to always have the newest release mentally, just doesn't work with SDS not having an import feature. So maybe this is the year I just bite the bullet, start with default, and just play.

I know I have been wanting that feature for years.. I have given up on it ever happening. we can't start franchise day 1 ever hence why the true release date for us franchise guys is the osfm rosters. I used to export a few service time guys with stats to keep in free agents for that reason so they were not rookies and create players added.. can't do that now either.

so if you want to start a franchise you can't just export a Matt Moore in now you gotta sit around for the update. that goes for the Korean and Japan players as well. they won't be in the game.

Re: OSFM release day?

Niner dude, I think you need to chill with June/July release... There’s nothing supporting it will take FM team that long.

You do know back in PS3 days when the game came out early march that with the big team they had the rosters wouldn't be 100% complete till the start of may right?? It was usually into a few weeks of the season.

you asking them now to create 400+ players from scratch with a smaller team. and 3 new roster spots (that someone said it's 93 this year) that is my supporting evidence here. having said all that/ ps3 days it was more then 400 + players June is only 6 weeks away... I dunno about you but when I create a player even using someone else template from video it can take me 30 mins to a hour per player! imagine starting from scratch here.

this is a lot of work saying June isn't that not realistic. I think it's better to have expectations low in expecting a release in 1 or 2 weeks. like the last few years and people should be told this then expecting them in 1 or 2 weeks.

Isn't that only for the default roster though?? you gotta remember this is for what they can legally only do as far as the rosters go for the game. not the Class A fake players. they won't be created by SDS at all. only by third party or am I wrong here?
