Road to the October...I can dream can't I?
-
So I know that March to October was basically forgotten this year (you can win some basic packs, yay!) and Road to the Show is pretty stale, but I was thinking wouldn't it be cool to have a combined mode of the two?
So you would start like RttS with high school/college/draft stuff. Once you are drafted you then would take control of the franchise that drafted you. Unrealistic but it would be fun to play both modes at the same time. You could chose to play your minor league games but every couple of days you would also get the MtO events. You could control all the rosters, set up trades (including your own character) and get call-up opportunities (again, including your own character, which you could refuse if you wanted to pad stats). Once you get to the MLB with the character you would then have the option to play the whole team in MtO events or play the created character only. Mix it up how you feel.
I enjoy both modes and think it would be cool to play them both concurrently. It's a bit of a bummer to constant come up for your first AB in RttS and see your team down 9 runs already (realistic for the Angels but come on!). It also would be fun to be building the franchise around the stud character you created.
