Halofan set retired?

halofan26 · 01-13-2006, 06:34 PM

I have been tossing around the idea that I will retire my set at the start of this year, but only to create an entirely new set......Did you REALLY think i would quit making rosters? You silly people, you!

Im starting this thread because i want to see what you guys would want a set to look like. I want to hear it ALL....keep in mind this may not happen, but if i get enough feedback, it just may.

With that said.......give it up, let's hear what you want.

The way i do ratings will be based on a "majority", and a "majority" that is intelligent in their answers. I will say this though, i dont do my sets based on what other publications (i.e. Baseball America, USA Today, ESPN, etc.) say. I mean let's be real.....some of those pubs out there are VASTLY different, so a middle ground would need to be met.

I have also tossed around the idea of doing both sets, a brand spanking new one (as mentioned above) and the continuation of the one already out there.

I'd say Brand New...

I don't really understand the question.

What options do we have in a rosters set?

What do you want our opinions on?

atlbraves · 01-13-2006, 10:13 PM

i would like a roster set thats based on BA, Baseball Prospectus, or whatever, since we can agree on it more.

How about you make a full major/minor league set? I'll bring the logos.

full major.minor league set? i thought was what was already out there of mine lol

Dimaggio-im looking for everyone's opinion as to what kind of set they would like to see

atlbraves-i wont make one off that, i said that in the first post...if i make it off their ratings then its not "mine" is it? lol

Malleus Dei · 01-14-2006, 01:14 AM

I meant a *full* set for OOTP2006 - the Major Leagues and all of the minor leagues.

Wheele8 · 01-14-2006, 12:49 PM

I woud also suggest waiting until OOTP 2006. The set you have out now is great, and if people want to make changes they should feel free, but I would save your energy until the new version comes out and maybe see if there are any exclusive features to 20006 that you could utilize.

well thats the plan.....i probably wasnt going to get started until it came out...hopefully Markus will want me to beta test the game and then i can get started early

I would say going with a more opinion/scouting base set rather than the strictly stat based updates would be much more worthwhile. I say go for it.

There's only one MLB.

steveman211 · 01-15-2006, 04:04 PM

if you do start a new set, i would suggest lowering prospect ratings (it seems like every other guy is 4* or better) and less players in the minors.

Derek4jc · 01-15-2006, 04:39 PM

Disregard that one

Malleus Dei · 01-15-2006, 09:37 PM

I'd like to see EVERY player who is in the minors.

At every level.

Mets2006 · 01-15-2006, 10:51 PM
