Things I nitpick at in The Show & Irks

[sportomatic75]

-The inability to view the stats and box score following the All Star Game/Home Run Derby. I am always curious to see what happened and you somehow can't

-The lack of important information regarding playoff occurrences (I wish it would show a pop up on the screen for major injuries or events that take place during playoffs)

-Opening Day not being treated with more value on the schedule

-Lack of focus on young rookie players on the bench or in the game

*Side Note*
Does anyone know why that whole feature for commentary/story for pretty much every player that was revealed for 16 The Show never panned out or worked at all?

What was that supposed to be exactly?

Re: Things I nitpick at in The Show & Irks

things I nitpick that in the end dont really matter
cant use retired numbers on classic rosters for players that actually wore those numbers back before the number was retired i.e. the Yankees #9 on Nettles
cant rename coaches and managers
cant edit service time
I feel like I'm sounding like a broken record

Was going to post this in the impressions thread but since this is here...(this is strictly RttS related)
- The presentation of awards your RttS may have won the previous year is gone
- The AI GM is....just terrible...mainly terrible trades. The GM for the Braves has traded some good prospects for aging vets.
-The AI manager when it comes to the bullpen...is just terrible. Currently have Brandon Morrow as a closer for Braves (don't ask me why Viz or even AJ. Minter is not closing) and he is currently 1-8 and has blown 13 saves.
- I already know this is not possible but it would be great to have Single A to start out in instead of Double AA.

There's more but I've cried and whine enough for one day.

It's kind of annoying that the batting helmet style is greyed out in franchise mode and can't be edited - even for generated players.


I don't get that.

The one that bothers me is that you cannot look at team stats at all. I'd actually like to see them sortable in the leader section but at least put it back in the player stats section!

For me ladies and gentlemen: It's the cleats of the coaches. Teams like the Cubs, Phillies, Blue Jays, Cards and etc. Team cleats should be Team colors and instead they're black!

The displaying of the team standings during franchise play. It always has the result of the game's being played, although on the bottom of the screen srolling games are currently being played...

Don't worry we all feel that way. Our ideas don't seem to be noticed. Only the ones who have a connection with the devs really get what they want. I haven't heard it any other way. Top wanted features usually don't get in the game. The last one I can remember is the roof opening and closing features last year.

Honestly I have no idea where they were going with it. The way they explained it on that one live stream is that there was going to be an interesting story for most if not every starting player for the MLB team. It winded up being a broken feature where only one of the players would get a story repetitively thrown in every other game it seemed like. I still can't forget the one for Curtis Granderson where they constantly made reference to his socks honoring Jackie Robinson.

I feel like this was a feature left in the dust and they haven't gone back to it. Maybe they remember about it for this year if not for future editions

I just wish you could view pertinent statistics (OBP, L?R BAVG splits, Saves) in the main Lineup/Rotation screens, and full left/right splits on the player card.

Since I'm not allowed to open a thread. ( I guess the FBI has to vet me ) I will try to get some help here. I played 4 games MOM quick play. All good. Since then I cannot get the game to save anything I do. Play one game or two or three. Pick up a free agent. Log off then log back on---nothing is saved. Back to only 4 games played. Ready to give up. Any help !!

Did you by chance turn off auto save? Are you manually saving your game?
