    Players energy????

    So in the older versions of the show it always showed players energy before games to see if you need to sub players in or not. I'm curious if they show it in this years or if I'm missing something. I can't see if a guy in my pen has been over used and needs rest so I don't use him to much. Any input is greatly appreciated.

    It's there. If you look carefully there is a faint green line within the circle next to each player's name.

    It's very hard to discern so I don't blame you for missing it. Hopefully in the future they just color the entire circle instead of only the perimeter (so it looks like a pie chart... or they just change the gimmick altogether.

      I play offline franchise mode and you can see the pitchers and players energy before the game. It's in the radial circle with thier ratings. I think the green is energy not sure about the red graph though.

        I think red is the player's overall rating? Not sure either.

          Ok thanks. I didn't see a Green line at all. I'll have to look in my next game. Wish they didn't make it so hard to tell. Is it the same way for the bullpen also? Appreciate the input fellas.

            I hate the new green circle (energy) inside the red (overall). It is so damn hard to see.

              I don't like the green circle either and as always, fatigue seems to be a bit excessive. I wish there was a slider for it.

                There is a slider for pitcher fatigue. The green circle is terrible.

                  This really needs to be changed. Hope there is a way it can happen this year, but I'm doubtful.

                    Yeah, this was an awful design decision.

                      I recall watching the previews for the game where Ramone sat down with IGN and other sites. He always pointed out how these pie graphs and circle things were his idea. He really wanted them to be in the game because of the aesthetics. I guess he forgot to consider functionality and usability.

                      The pie graphs aren't measurable. It makes comparing players needlessly difficult. I either waste time continually going back and forth between players to see how much their PWR vs L pie slice moves or just going to their player cards to look at actual numbers anyway.

                      I want this design choice removed. Give me actual numbers to look at!

                        I guess I'm the only one who likes the green energy stamina circle.

                          Nope. I actually like it as well. I prefer the pie charts to what we had before.

                              It's a great design. It's so easy to tell. i can't believe so many people hate it. Much better than a flat bar.
