Yikes! I guess they have a different opinion on what revamp means than I do.

Budget changed from weekly to yearly and logic improved

Call up/send down and contract negotiation logic improved

New depth chart is in franchise mode

Nothing on lineup and bullpen logic?

Oh no, I haven't watched it yet... So essentially nothing was added/changed?

There are additions and changes.

It was changed as well, but it was tied to a MTO question, so I don't want to say that its changed for franchise, but I would assume it would be.

Ok thanks... I sure hope so but we'll see.

Guessing we aren't getting expanded rosters, would think that would have come up.

So it's looking like RTTS changes and stadium creator are the reasons why no Y2Y saves... Damn, was hoping franchise had major changes to be the reason why.

Yeah we may not be.

But I'm intrigued to hear more about the contract negotiation logic in the stream. And the changes to budget logic and improvements.

At least they made the decision to not buy the game at launch an easy one. I personally see no reason to buy the game at full price, or potentially at all this year, if franchise mode remains largely unchanged. We'll see what Thursday has in store for us, but I'm not expecting much.

Unless the logic has improved in franchise mode tremendously, I don't see any reason for me to get 21. It's a shame that even though baseball and football are my number 1 and 2 favorite sports, I end up buying and playing 2k for my sports fix because EA and SCEA have a target audience that I'm apparently not a part of. Fortunately us baseball fans have OOTP as an alternative if we desire well made franchise mode that has depth and competent AI.

I'm guessing it could be the changes to budget going back to yearly from weekly as well as the logic changes being made.

Hard to say what under the hood changes may have led to Y2Y saves being omitted, if they indeed are the reason.

Hope to hear whether Y2Y saves return in the stream on Thursday.

I love logic being improved. That is always a good thing. Under the hood that benefits everyone.

That being said, I am tired of logic being shown as the best new feature in franchise mode. Thats not a feature. That is an improvement on something already there.

The audacity by SDS to have the stream on opening day and have this as the promotion for franchise. Yuck.

Don't think it's time for panic mode yet. The refusal to answer contract negotiations and roster logic question in detail does allude to the potential of expanded rosters.

However, my "deeply skeptical" mode remains engaged.
