I definitely made arguments on discord and the forums about being careful with adding too many rules that make it true to mlb rules. Im just one guy, but my opinion was, fix injury recovery, make obvious improvements and the improvements dont necessarily need to be in line with mlb (stadium alteration/customization; create-a-player feature, 26 man roster, etc.)

However, when the game is still playing like it is 2003 and real life is in 2026, how do you cherry pick the best rules, implement them, and hope you satisfy everyone. That's nearly impossible.

Despite my arguments, there were still enough people that communicated, "its a baseball sim, it should be as close to real baseball as possible". So, while these proposed updates likely satisfy the above people, they likely frustrated many other people that enjoy playing a game that reminds them of old time baseball.

Not a fan of the new Reddit style crap on world chat. Not sure who thought that was a good idea.

Is that something that is only on worlds that recently rolled? I can't see it yet. What is it?

You can thumbs up, thumbs down, fire, checkmark stuff like that.

Still can only search free agents and players with two filters.

It’s hideous. Shocked someone thought it was a good idea

I've seen a mass exodus of players in two worlds that rotated this past week leading me to believe that aligning with MLB silly rules wasn't the update your current customer base was looking for.

Yeah. I suspect the majority don’t actually want that, but what gets me considering it is how they prioritized emojis and flames over fixing the injury issues.

Seems like all these ownership transitions have been the same over the years

If world chat reactions look "hideous" to you, it may be you need to clear your local browser cache (Ctrl-F5 on a Windows machine). We'll make sure this happens automatically in future releases.

To answer question: why world chat reactions vs injury bug fix? we have an assortment of developers chipping in right now at different skill levels. So the top X items aren't the first X items worked on. Injury bug is fixed but we are still testing in our QA environment. It'll be in the next release which won't be far off.

Red ‘X’ or Fire Emoji

the minimum batter rule is stupid- too many seasons/years of generating low stamina guys that can only throw 10-15 pitches without killing their stamina. Now those pitchers have to face 3 batters? Come on. That was done to limit the length of the actual MLB game, no reason for it here. Now I have to work all of these worthless stamina guys through my system after building up my bullpens. Are we going to add the pitch clock next?

Admin - please add the season a player was named a Diamond in the Rough to their list of transactions. We shouldn’t have to go back and manually search previous seasons DITR lists to find it. Thanks.

I add date, season, projected numbers in notes for this.

Serious question, can the monetary limit for medical be raised to +/- 10 million to better adjust to this new enviroment?

My issue isn't my DITRs, my issue is DITR's on other teams who I might select in Rule 5, or trade for, etc...
