The Extremely Early Wish List Thread

[metal134]

This may have been mentioned already, but I'm not going sift through all 54 pages and a search turned up nothing.

They need to split team rankings up by league. If I go to see where the Indians rank in, say, ERA, I may see that they are 10th in the MLB, but what about the AL rankings? Sure I can figure it out by myself, but I'd like to see a break down for all teams. This is especially important for the minors as in AA, there are three separate leagues. When playing RTTS as a SP, I like to see where my team's pitching staff ranks in the league, but I can only see where they rank among all AA teams.

Hey guys, how do you feel about a coach style career mode? Maybe start as a scout/minor league pitching coach/minor league hitting coach and working your way up to major league manager?


I don't think it will ever happen, but it would be interesting to play a season as an umpire,being part of a crew, switching from behind the plate to 1st/2nd/3rd. It's kind of a silly idea, but just putting the ideas out there.

I don't know about umpire...
But I would LOVE a manager mode that has you start from the ground up.
Coach.....get a spot on a AA or A squad....maybe get the call to a AAA club and eventually get your hat in the ring for a MLB club.
Some guys might not get into it...but I would for sure.

Yeah, the umpire was just a throw in, I don't think I could get into it. It would be sweet to just be a manager and lead your team to a WS championship.

Game save transfers..

I'd like to be able to import my '08 the Show RTTS career into '09.

It would really be nice to continue a career as opposed to being forced to start over just because a newer version came out. At least allow the settings and stats to carry over.

Giving you an option in pre-game menu, say that your team is struggling, some teams will have everyone shave their heads, or everyone wears high socks, or everyone wears eye black. Would be a cool little touch. I would also love to see rain delays and double headers.

I would also like to see real contracts. If they do end up adding 40 man roster, and hopefully realistic trades, it would be nice that players that are actually possible going to be traded at the end of July are in the last year of their contract. Creating a stadium in franchise is a must. Huge Twins fan here, and when I get done with my first season, I would like to be able to create Target Field (even though it is a pretty stupid name).

Replace stolen bases with OBP on the walk up screen.

Pitch Track.

Allow us to view this anytime we want to see it. Right now its usually just on strikeouts but I'd like to see my pitch breaks and speed anytime.
