Re: Out of the Park Baseball 21 Early Access Available Now

The Game Flow option is an absolute savior to anyone that hasn't played this series before. There are also a magnitude of new ways to quick play, quick sim, player movement and organization management.

My initial thoughts:
  • Love the Game Flow! Makes it so much easier to know what to do next!
  • The camera pans, in game, are cool and customizable.
  • The interface in general has minor shortcuts that previously required to dig as you click.
  • The changes to those familiar with previous versions are minor but things like sorting stats and some clean up has been done to the interface in general.
  • The sounds and ambience have also received a little touch up. (At least it seems like it.)
  • Perfect Team card pulls will reset on Friday but it’s nice when you land a Gold and the fireworks go off!

Really enjoying this year's version! I'm definitely going to do some couch gaming since it runs very smooth on my MACPro.

I like the new game action camera except for how the camera constantly moves to try and center the screen on the ball. Kind of annoying having a view of the entire field on the grounder and have the screen track the ball movement as it goes to SS then thrown to 1B. I hope there is a way to turn that off and I just haven't found it yet.

It's a subtle change, but I really like the more uniform coloring in the UI. Whether it's the A's, Braves, or Rockies, having the color scheme match top to bottom (matching the team) is easier on the eyes than older versions.

The ability to add column filters when hiring a coach is clutch. It saves a lot of time. I still think there could be some improvements here though. Even if they don't want to show exact/estimated values (like we get for players) in terms of their attributes, it would be nice if we got a little more data.

Love the "Prospect Pipeline" screen. It's cool being able to get a summary level view of each prospect without flipping screens and even getting their MLB ETA.

This might be the first version where even if you bought the previous year its worth upgrading.* That is impressive for a yearly title.

Well done Markus and the team.
