Team Rivalries

rutri01 · 12-09-2009, 10:54 AM

With a bunch of fights going on in my online league, I was thinking about some type of rivalry system. Like the way a player morale works. Maybe Rivalry- None, average, Intense

Each team could have a rating on how much of a rival they are which could effect other things like attendence (boost) and even increase chances for fights. Kind of simulate a Yankees/Red Sox series over them playing the Nats.

Not sure how you would come up with the factor but maybe based on boosting number for teams in your division, league, previous fights, records, and such. Maybe some players get pumped up against rivals.

Might not be worth the effort but I though it be cool if the game recognized team rivals over general random fights.

Something like Football Manager would be cool. For each team you can choose any number of rivals from the teams in the current database, and set a number between 1 and 100 for how strong the rivalry is. That would be cool in OOTP.

It should at least have an affect on attendence. White Sox v Cubs games are always sold out, even when both are playing like garbage. At least have an attendence boost.

That is something missing from the immersion aspect of the game.
