That's just disappointing and the fact that so many things are left out of the mode like non-roster invites, contract extensions, 3 team trades, trades that involve cash or draft picks. Visually the game is beautiful but the one mode that needs a lot of attn to be more realistic was basically left alone. The player morale thing is alright but I don't consider it as important as the other things I listed above.

        While I would have liked to see more little things added I think you guys are underestimating things.

        I am mixed about the progression. I love that individual attributes can increase/decrease all seperately. I am not sure how to feel about the progression being tied more to stats from the previous year. It will take a lot of franchise testing which I know people will be doing when the game comes out here. I do think previous year stats should impact progression but not the only thing or the greatest thing. It all depends how much it is weighed, from the examples they gave it looked pretty heavy.

        I like how franchise is more dynamic and emergent with more things to consider in team building. Like the player morale affecting contracts, that is a great idea.

        I asked if player awards are in player cards but didn't get asked. I wonder if the awards from past seasons are tracked anywhere in franchise.

        Overall my satisfaction level is =) The presentation improvements showing/talking about stats from the current season and past seasons is a huge addition to franchise, as well as all the gameplay improvements. The Show is worth $60 every year I've played it.

        Nice they improved pitcher stamina for 4 man rotations in playoffs!

            Did we at least find out if you can for sure override the games choice for the roof being opened or closed in franchise.

              I asked and it has been updated. They said they went a bit to far last year and so they re-balanced it this year.

                  I asked this question. They said it's balanced this year.

                    I agree. It's not a franchise killer, but it hurts. I hope this is fixed in 17.

                      You're the best thanks. Big issue on my mind. Glad they tuned it up.

                      Thanks again

                        Confirmed, non-roster invitees are not in the game. Ramone played me big time and gave my hopes up when I tweeted him about it the other day. I am not a happy person right now.


                        Also, someone asked if Jeff Bannister was in the game. They replied "If they have played a game in the big leagues and are in the MLBPA." (basically saying they didn't know if he was a new player)

                        Like really, he's a second-year manager? Terrible. I am extremely mad about all of this.

                          Yes, yes it has. MLB14-15 focus was DD. MLB15-16 focus was DD. They got the most changes by FAR.

                          These card games are KILLING sports games. This has nothing to do with if you like Ultimate team or DD or not. It makes the company money, RTTS and Franchise does not. Its simple as that. So it makes sense they spend most time on that.

                          Yes Franchise is underwhelming. If DD was not in the game at all what would those resources be focused on? RTTS and Franchise would.

                            It was my biggest issue last year. Having to take a pitcher out in the 5th at times just to make sure he was going to be able to make the next start on time. It was just terrible.

                              Off the top of my head I didn't remember he was a manager. So who cares that they forgot?
