I would like to see an easier way to edit rosters from the main menu. I’d like to be able to set up the teams as they are IRL (with injuries) and then upload that roster into Franchise and start a season without having everything change. Personally, I would love a single season mode, but if they could just make Franchise work without having to jump through hoops to get accurate rosters in there and to stick, that would be great.
I also want to be able to have all the right players and not have to use CAPS with no accurate historical stats and no audio. Hate hearing numbers called instead of names and players with mlb experience being considered rookies. It’s as if the folks at SDS don’t really keep up with things in the offseason. For instance, guys like Sugano and Ian Anderson were projected to be on MLB rosters to start the season. They should have included them. Anderson’s been in the game before and they were able to have Sasaki and Kim for the Dodgers so there’s no real excuse other than poor quality control.
I would have loved to have a real Steinbrenner Field but I get that due to timing. But at the very least, fix your dadgum Stadium Editor. There are some great options from 24 but can’t get them in 25. And get the stupid bullpens off the field.
Finally, we need editable coaches and managers for realism sake. And fix the jacket bug! Third base coaches don’t wear jackets - especially in the summer! Smh
The game plays beautifully in my opinion. I am thrilled that BP logic is much better. But because of the things I listed above, I don’t feel like I am getting my money’s worth with the game.
