Re: 17 worthwhile?

I'm playing '16 personally, but '17 is a very good game. It just has a few hiccups that really bother me, and some are just cosmetic (standings being wrong during in-game popups, showing batter's hitting handedness instead of position) while other things, gameplay wise, distance me from getting immerse into the game.

'17 is a very good game, and to be honest, if for some reason I didn't have '16, I could play '17 and find enjoyment. But since I have the option of going back, '16 provides me the better overall experience than '17 does.

Oh and as Bullitt mentioned, I'm not a fan of the new budget system. Just too cumbersome to manage imo.

No way. 17 is not fun one bit.

17 is good but 16 is better, 17 is the beginning of a new era and it will takes time to be Great. Just too many issues right now, But I got it and play it every day. Lst game the Pirates subsituted Moroff as a catcher in a 1-1 tie in the 13th innings and 8 pass balls later I had a 3-1 lead and won the game. Also in the bottom of the ninth with 2 outs Freese hit a double and turn it into a home run, cutoff man did not have anyone covering home plate. The Next time the catcher thing happens I am going to changed Control to that team and sub a catcher in.

I'm loving 17. I really think it's the best baseball game ever.

But in all fairness, I did not play 16.

I might only get 17 just to move my franchise forward.

Re: 17 worthwhile?

Only get 17 to move your saves over right before 18

Re: 17 worthwhile?

I think 17 is an upgrade on 16, but like any game, there are certainly things that are a frustration. It's the best baseball game I have ever seen/played. If you play DD, there is a ton of content to play, even if you play vs cpu. I've only been playing DD vs CPU and I'm still nowhere close to be complete even though I got the game the day it came out. For franchise and RTTS, you'd need to pick up '17 if you want to continue onto '18.

Re: 17 worthwhile?

With the right slider and roster combo, I definitely recommend it.
