Do you guys normally wait for OS full minors

Do you guys normally wait for the OS full minors to come out before starting your road to the show mode or franchise mode? Is it worth waiting for (It takes about a month - 2 months i think) and does it make a significant impact on how your rtts career or franchise mode plays out? I'd be more than willing to wait for these to come out before i start rtts if it does, i imagine its awesome playing with real top prospects in the AA, AAA level.

So I'll organize my questions so its easier to answer...

1.Do the OS full minors impact franchise mode significantly?

2.Do the OS full minors impact road to the show mode signifcantly?

3.Are they worth waiting for? (i'd be willing to wait)

If you can answer in that 1. 2. 3. format it'd be great but doesn't matter, thanks !

Re: Do you guys normally wait for OS full minors

Last year I started a RTTS to fill the time before the rosters came out. Funny thing is I ended up playing that more than I did franchise mode.

I do rtts and fantesy drafts and just mess around in franchise, and once Knight's roster drop, I go through, edit stances, deliveries, and equipment and fire up my 30 team franchise for the year

I think this year I might just play with the default rosters. Unless they are done by opening day.

Re: Do you guys normally wait for OS full minors

There's no other option than waiting for the OS Full Minors. It just makes the game so much better and more realistic (as far as just having all the right names). I'm not sure if it affects franchise one way or the other, but for me, I'll be waiting.

Re: Do you guys normally wait for OS full minors

Yes. In my opinion it's just a different experience when you player either franchise and road to the show, play a few months and see some of these prospects and then in real life when they're called up for your team or if another team your team is playing against has their rookies you can say "hey, I know his player, he's (insert whatever)." It just adds to the game/

Sorry this is kinda' off topic but in the roster downloads, do the minor leaguers have similar stances and accessories as their real-life counterparts or is it just similar abilities?

For RTTS, I don't use the full minors because the rosters will be completely mixed up in four to five years anyway.

Franchise mode is a totally different story. The full minors complete franchises. Half the fun is developing prospects. And with the new player vault, the full minors could be made from scratch in a week. If your interested, check out Knight's review of the vault in the CD Invitees thread.

Re: Do you guys normally wait for OS full minors

I don't wait. I start up my franchise as soon as I get the game and I don't look back. By the time Knight's rosters drop, I'm typically a season and a half to two seasons in.
