    I’m so happy they finally brought back the option to retire. Although only a phone call with the agent Stephanie at the end of the season, it’s still something!! I still think they could do better. There is no fanfare, just an ending screen with your career accomplishments. Next year, I would like to see cut scenes like your induction into Cooperstown, and even a number retirement ceremony!!!!

    I must have missed something, when did this happen? And how exactly does it work?

    This exact suggestion about a simple series of cut screens and video vignettes has been suggested by dozens of customers over the course of several years. Add it to the long list of great ideas that SDS has ignored, and this one is really easy to implement.

    The idea that to this day, when your avatar player's career ends, that there is no induction ceremony at Cooperstown (when SDS has the license from them), nor press conferences, is simply inexcusable. This is something that should have been done a long time ago, one of those no-brainers frankly.

    At minimum, if your career warrants it, a press conference where you have a team owner, GM, and manager to your side announcing your retirement, then another vignette of you giving your Cooperstown speech, and a final screen of you holding your plaque, where your same image used is superimposed on the bronze plaque, are ideas that should have been implemented years past.

    This is the difference between a company mailing it in each year vice a company sincerely seeking to create the best video game experience that it can. This stuff doesn't cost a lot of code time and money either.

    The current single cut screen with simple career numbers should be reserved for those avatar players whose accomplishments were pedestrian.
