And here is the OOTP 10 teaser website we have just launched:
Preorder Out of the Park Baseball 10

OOTP 10 will be released in Spring 2009. It will be the best OOTP ever and hands-down the best baseball simulation that money can buy.

Enjoy!
Markus

Markus, is the license going to be cross-platform via PISD? I remember that was supposedly the plan when the Linux version of OOTP9 was released...

eriqjaffe · 02-19-2009, 11:48 AM

dola,

FIRST!

well, SECOND!

jbergey22 · 02-19-2009, 11:49 AM

Looks great, cant wait.

This feature list looks to good to be true.

AnotherAlias · 02-19-2009, 11:52 AM

Can you please make an iPhone version?

AnotherAlias · 02-19-2009, 11:55 AM

dola,

So, V.10 comes with MLB rosters? I won't need to download them this time?

kingcharlesxii · 02-19-2009, 11:56 AM

I'm impressed, I didn't expect to see the pitching model revamp in this version. Hopefully it works out well and pitches affect ratings and effectiveness as they do in real life.

It will be cross-platform between Mac and Linux. And once we have found a valid copy protection solution for the PC, we'll offer those who bought OOTP 10 vie eLicense a free PISD license for PC, Mac and Linux.

But that is no promise. We'll do our best though.

V9 has MLB rosters as well

TETCHY · 02-19-2009, 11:58 AM

Dola,

A solid "WoW" for the new / improved features.

Mike Donlin · 02-19-2009, 11:58 AM

Wow. If all these features work as advertised, OOTP will be about as close to a perfect text-sim as one could get.

The next frontier will be graphics, I assume.

In any case, looking forward to spring.

Flying Dutchmen · 02-19-2009, 11:59 AM

What he ^^ said, just wow. If OOTP10 delivers on half of that stuff, it'll be an amazing step forward. Thanks Markus!

KuwabaraTheMan · 02-19-2009, 12:00 PM

Whoa, I've been playing since OOTP 2, and you continue to impress me.

The pitching system stuff sounds especially impressive. Individual pitch ratings, and velocity and GB% having an effect sounds like a dream come true. Now just give batters ratings on their ability to hit certain types of pitches and all will be right with the world.

All of the other features sound great, too. Can't wait to find out what else is new with this version.

da commish · 02-19-2009, 12:01 PM

I really like some of the enhancements, minor league DL, inaugural draft budgets, arbitration and free agent compensation, pitching, etc., etc. Thanks Markus and everyone else involved in the development of OOTP X.

kcroyalgm · 02-19-2009, 12:03 PM

I like what I hear.
And it was "VERY soon"

Order already submitted.
Can't wait!

ajsas01 · 02-19-2009, 12:08 PM

I'll be ordering as soon as I get home from work.

Great work Markus, really looking forward to getting my hands on this game!

Afino · 02-19-2009, 12:08 PM

Glad you didn't disappoint with "very soon"!

I've already pre-ordered

Cornelius McGillicuddy · 02-19-2009, 12:11 PM

My email didn't say, will it allow for saving in the middle of a pbp game?

pseudofool · 02-19-2009, 12:11 PM

w00t! fixing arbitration/comp is really cool! I'm excited to see the new pitching engine--never really understood the difference between movement/stuff anyway.
