Alright I think I've made my decision. Can you reserve me the Minnesota Twins. If I dont have a PS4 by May 6th then you can take me out and have time to replace me.

Just let me know with enough time to find a replacement if you're not going to end up getting one.

I'm sure once the game comes out people will flock here wanting to join.

I'm confused how it will work with nearly ever team taken. Will it be all user vs user games? That seems like it would take forever to complete a season. I've never done one of these for the show before so don't know exactly how this will work.

Yeah it'll be all user games, 82 game season.

Not 100% sure on how it'll advance if it's weekly or every few days or what. I'd guess weekly, so you have a week to play your games that week before it advances.

Hopefully someone takes the Padres or DBacks that's the only division with 2 cpu teams but hopefully it fills up completely.

Damn. In a week you could have 5 user games. That will be tough to knock out in a weeks time I would think and 2 weeks before an advance would seem to take forever to complete the season.

I will give it a try and see how it works out.

5 games over 7 days would be tough?

Games only take a half hour or so to complete, I figure most will knock out their series in one night.

And that's just an assumption, no idea yet how the advances work. Other games go weekly.

I'm not involved in this but I have to ask...you say games will take thirty minutes? Playing with quick counts seems like a shitty way for a franchise to go down.

We're not playing with quick counts. Everything is default.

Online games don't take that long, they're usually low scoring and move quick. I'd say my average online game on 13 was 30-40 min tops.

Yah I would imagine most will play their series with one player in one night. Should make for some interesting series. Could have some good rivalries too

You're a knowledgeable fella...this is my first year playing the show. How good are the Operation Sports Full Minor rosters? And do you just download them from in game like you would a playbook on Madden 25 ?

OSFM rosters are the best of any roster database for any sports game. They literally go through every major team and every associated minor league team and do equipment/atrribute/and name updates. It takes them a good month or two to do this because of how much work is involved. They also adjust some ratings based on actual statistics, etc.

You obtain them via the Roster Vault in game.

I'm hoping there is a setup like NHL 14 has with their Online Franchise.

The franchise was broken into two week segments for scheduling. So one advance you could have 8 games, and then the next advance you would only have 4. So there's a two week advance schedule on the game, and then the commissioner can say 2 weeks (real world) per advance period. So regardless of how many games we have on the schedule, it would advance every two weeks in real time.

I been following the first post in the thread on operation sports. Said May fifth they should be done pretty much. Like at 90% right now.

I might try a franchise with my favorite team, the shitty Astros just to be able to play with their annually voted "best farm in the majors" players.
