1. Get rid of international players in draft
2. Editable draft classes
3. More clear milestones for getting elected to the hall of fame
4. Manually adding players to hall of fame and choose which team they go in as
5. Offensive and defensive war
6. Better bullpen Ai
7. Position changes especially for minor league starters who become major league relievers.
8. Rotating schedules
9. Twitter feed for franchise
10. Adidas and new balance brands

1. Custom Schedules. (give us a blueprint of a schedule and allow us to customize the schedule...maybe even make a tutorial in it for Franchise mode...possibly an executive mode?)

2. More in depth history for hitter vs pitcher. For instance, let's say Yadi Molina hits a certain pitcher very well in his history....increase in stats and also make reference to it (Molina is hitting .350 in his career vs John Smith with 6 extra base hits)

3. More defined roles in the bullpen. For instance...allow us to designate LOOGYs.

Re: MLB 17 Feature Wishes?

The only wishes I have are that trade/40 man/lineup logic be improved in franchise. As well as continuing to expand equipment.

The equipment thing, I'm sure will happen. They expanded it quite a bit this year. I'd like to see Victus, New Balance and Jordan equipment in next year, which would pretty much cover off every brand used in the majors. If they do that and expand on the brands already in, generic equipment will be unnecessary.

Re: MLB 17 Feature Wishes?

- More MLB records, the current selection though probably the most popular is by far to few IMO

- Custom draft classes

MOST IMPORTANTLY...

AI Bullpen management. This is probably the only area in the game that is totally unrealistic and doesn't represent real baseball at all. This is super crucial IMO.

Re: MLB 17 Feature Wishes?

Pitcher Splits - I firmly believe this is the heart of the bad bullpen/gateway to actual bullpen management, not just matching same hand vs same hand.

Sim Engine Sliders - no more of this "move the slider here for sim games and then back for played games". Also, gives us a way to avoid things like 1/4 of the league having team ERA's under 3.00, etc. Let us adjust the balance of the sim engine like OOTP does.

Player Creation Sliders - again, similar to OOTP, let us adjust how the players come out for the drafts/players that are discovered.

In RTTS - let me be a reliever. I mean just a RP. Not a CP. Not have to fail as a SP but then don't do too well as a RP. Just an outright RP.

Re: MLB 17 Feature Wishes?

Here's my list:

1.) The ability to upload player portraits.
2.) The ability for uploaded portraits to become face scans like WWE 2k16
3.) The ability to edit SCEA players.
4.) Top 100 prospects and foreign imports first and last names in data bank if they already aren't there.
5.) Improved Bullpen AI
6.) Editable draft classes.
7.) Single A squads.
8.) Improvements to online franchise.

Basically I am asking for the world. LOL

Re: MLB 17 Feature Wishes?

Two things for me:

1) take care of all the on field bugs, inconsistencies, etc. Let 2017 be the year of wiping out the gameplay issues (bullpen logic, baserunning, pitcher stamina, etc)

2) see #1

Sure, throw some aesthetic improvements into the game as well where possible, but was PBR really worth it? Less time and money on improvements that can only be seen when you are in replay mode and manually move the camera around the stadium.

Gameplay polish and bug fixes.
