Out of the Park Baseball 17 reviews and comments

A hugely complex manager of low-powered baseball In Germany. A lot of Customization Options of your own Game. Data/Players from 1871 to the present day. Start Year can be freely chosen; Including realistic Finances and other Gameplay at this Time. Also possible to Set up new Own Leagues. If you are at least a little familiar with Baseball, you will be able to experience an absolute Highlight of the Sport Manager Gerne here after a little Elaboration. Clear Recommendation to anyone who can do anything with Baseball or Managerial games.

Definitely one of the most complete and complex baseball management Simulator, too. After trying mogul baseball that had not convinced me at the time, I finally opted for this version. It is searched, it is beautiful, it is stuffed with tabelaux, statistics, notes, figures and evaluations of all kinds. Nothing has been put aside in OOTP. In short a real Bible for any baseball enthusiast. This is exactly our football manager of American baseball. The games will hardly be accessible to any neophyte, especially since it is only offered in American. Logic in one direction. A fairly complete guide, in French, but not finished is available on steam, in the game hub. Very useful to approach OOTP in glee. Good evening.

At first I was puzzled as to the possibility that this simulation would be interesting and fun to play in the long run. I have unfortunately started a career as a manager at the time of my childhood and I say sadly today because I have misery to do without this game. All or part of the management of a baseball team is there and it is possible to simulate each of the throw, a round, a half-sleeve, a match, a day a week, a month at a time it's as you want. Games can be replay (replay) and as this kind of game predict you will be drowned in statistics of all kinds, a delight for amateurs. HIGHLIGHTS immense historical data base on all players and baseball equpies having played in the major or minor North American leagues. Hyperlink that allows to manage the multiple tables of the management of a baseball team. Different and many game modes, career, match, season, hsitoric series etc.. Approved by the Association of American professional baseball players MLBPA. Great statistical realism, game service at to play and micro management of every possible launch. Many "mod" to add the photos of players, the historical stadiums etc. WEAKNESSES some bugs in the 3D match with player representation by simple checkers. Far too many players decrease in value quickly with age contrary to what players have demonstrated in real life. Vocal description of the matches in synthetic track quality. Bought in a humble bundle for $1.00 CND, I recommend it to all the lovers of the genre and baseball. Element graphic note 9.0 sound 4.0 playability 10.0 scenario 10.0 overall rating 8.25
