I'm totally addicted to this game. My Indians are stinking up the diamond, but I hope to turn them around soon. LOL

What's the eta on the iPad version?

Am I correct that if I purchase the iTouch version and play it on the iPad, that my upgrade will be free when the iPad version is finally released? Meaning, I won't have to put any money towards the iPad version?

Thanks!

You are correct. No extra cost.

I'm addicted to this as well. I'm playing on the iPad, so I can't wait for a universal update. Keep up the good work, palli!

Re: iOOTP in the App Store on 5/5

Did you finally break down and get an iPhone?

No. I'm playing on my Touch.

Iphone won't be coming for me at least until Iphone 5. I just don't have an upgrade until then.

Do you guys play through an actual game or do you mostly sim them? This is my first time playing this sort of game, and I'm trying to get used to the "game play".

Got the logos...

Does anyone know if there is any plans for stadium shots to be put in, in the same manner?

Is there any sound in this game? Was hoping this game would at least show some game play similar to the old micro league baseball game.

The iPad (Universal App) update will not be one of the first two updates (which will be released as soon as possible) as it will take some time to work it out. But you are correct that it will be a free update, so you can buy iOOTP now and play on your iPad and receive the Universal-App update completely free.

I think it is the beauty of iOOTP (and other text-sim games as well) that you can find your own style of play. I, for example, play out a few games to start the season (get a feel for my team), then change to simulating and later in the season, when it comes down to the last games and I'm in the Playoff Race, I switch back to playing out my games. The Playoffs are the same, nothing more exciting then a Game 7 going in Extra Innings.

I read another nice way to play today on our board: someone is so addicted to play iOOTP (at work) that he allows himself just one game, basically following the real MLB season on his device. For me it is easy: my job is to play iOOTP.

I know. Seriously, I saw a post some somewhere on the OOTP board where someone had changed the stadium background to another ballpark image. I have a feature on my list to add individual ballpark images for one of the updates.

Btw. the first update will have File Sharing enabled, so changing logos will be much easier by just using iTunes!

Sorry for 4 post in a row but I wanted to give some answers.

So far we have no sound in iOOTP. To be honest, I don't think that it will add much to the game. But maybe we can add a few sound effects during the game (like cheering and the crack of the bat).

About the game-play: Not even the PC/Mac version has animations. We might add some for OOTP13 next year and then it might be possible, that animations will end in a new version of iOOTP someday.

Nice! That's going to be a real good feature.
