![]() They are transferring their save file to 19 and continuing their franchise. So even if they did start with OOTP 18 and 18 Opening Day Rosters, when 19 comes out, they are not starting over again. I think you'll have a hard time getting answers to this question from the forums because the people in the forums are base fans that are mostly into OOTP for their fictional universes. Maybe that's just me.Ĭan someone help me out with this? I've been playing sports games for about 25 years and I've never seen a video game where I don't get how this game is meant to be used. Is this game not mean to be played the way we play other sports games? Is it purely a structure from which to play online fantasy baseball leagues? I can understand starting the 1951 season from the start and playing it any time but even then, I wouldn't want opening day, I'd want trade deadline or end of season rosters. Does the game simply not come equipped with a trade mechanism to move players around at will?ģ. Do OOTP players play OOTP18 with 18 rosters and not play the game again with updated rosters until they buy OOTP19?Ģ. So I'm left with the following questions that I can't understand.ġ. Except, the problem there is that everyone also seems to buy this game EVERY year to get the new rosters. ![]() I would guess, "maybe people are so many years into their franchises that they simply don't care about current rosters". So, I'm having a hard time understand what the appeal is. ![]() I have never once wanted to start playing a baseball game in the offseason with rosters from the start of last season and I would imagine I'm probably not alone in that. My confusion is that it seems everyone who plays OOTP ONLY ever starts playing with April rosters and never during the offseason do they want to play with rosters as of, let's say, January 1st. So, because of that, there are constantly people here (be it with The Show, or NBA 2K, or whatever) updating rosters, making trade deadline rosters, etc etc. In any other baseball game, you can take any roster set you create or edit outside of game modes, then take that edited roster and start a season with it. I guess people get defensive about things they like. Asking on the OOTP forums has gotten me nothing but confused faces and even bizarrely attitude. I've asked friends who have never played OOTP and they totally understand my confusion. Let me see if I can explain this properly. I don't have any experience with text-based games. Well, let me first explain that all I'm used to is simulation type games like we talk about here on OS. You can go back to 1947 and play through that season and beyond.
