Dan21tn Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Sorry for the dumb topic guys bleh I know I know ... but I am wondering if anyone has some suggestions with what roster I should get? I was gunna try soriano's or ultimate but I am kinda afraid to alter my gameplay and pitches to much. I kinda just want players on the right team, any ideas? If not all okey ; ) The official mvp 06 should be out soon so that will update rosters I suppose. Big red sox fan here and today on ESPN I am watching the spring training game between sox and reds .... and I felt so lame when I saw arroyo on the reds, I have noooo idea he'd been traded or whatever it was. BLEH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonalano013 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 First of all, usually when you're a "big" fan of a team, you know wat's going on with the team. But anyways, i think the best rosters to download if you don't care about AAA and AA minor leaguers is Swingingsoriano's Rosters. they're really good. as a matter of fact, im currently using his until MVP 06 comes out. Now, if u really care about how the minors, then go with Totte's Ultimate Rosters, which are just as good, imo. -jon- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwinginSoriano Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Both Totte and I are coming out with our respective rosters on opening day. Totte's though will be included right in MVP 06. But as always, there is an alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan349 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 SwingingSoriano's rosters are my rosters of choice too. The Ultimate Rosters 5.3 are actually more up-to-date than SS's, but the URs have a SERIOUS problem in that many players are missing their custom cyberfaces. Every player in SS's rosters has their proper face. I just use MVPEdit to move guys around to make SS's 1.4 rosters as up-to-date as possible. It isn't possible to get them 100% up-to-date, mainly because there are real players who don't even exist in SS's (less are missing in the URs, but not all are there), but most of those who are missing are A/AA players. IMO it's easier to move a few players around on my team (no, I don't try to get EVERY lineup 100%) than to manually edit the cyberfaces of everyone in the league. The generic faces bother me more than lineup accuracy (besides, most of those who are missing are relief pitchers). I've got my rosters to a point where they will tide me over until the opening day stuff comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgbaseball Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 What I did was take UR 5.2 as a base, and use SS's to transfer the updated attributes to UR. It took forever, but it was totally worth it. Now I've got what I believe to be the true "Ultimate Roster." I keep it extremely updated and accurate, and do plenty of research on minor league prospects. For those of you that aren't sure which roster set to do, do what I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know that there's a Plus version of my rosters right? Compatible with cyberfaces and all... The reason why the two latest releases haven't had updated cyberface id's is that it takes to much time to edit them. UR 6.0 due for Opening Day is gonna be great with cyberfaces and everything.

beerha21 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Totte will your new roster that is being released on opening day have updated attributes for players or no? just curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totte Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Totte will your new roster that is being released on opening day have updated attributes for players or no? I haven't made a complete overhaul on the attributes like SS has BUT some have een corrected and made it into the rosters. Mostly stuff that people have mentioned to me in the UR-thread or PM'ed me about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a reminder to everyone, if you want UR and Epic together, do it yourself! Jeez, all those threads one month ago!

Bama Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 With rosters there are pretty much only 2 choices (though they're both excellent). SwinginSoriano's rosters have accurate MLB players, lineups and attributes and work with cyberfaces at this site. However, SS's releases usually come out leter than UR's and do not feature correct minor league rosters. UltimateRosters are realeased faster and have accurate MLB and MiLB rosters. The plus version works with the cyberfaces. The only downside to them is the attributes on the MLB players are not as well done as SS's. Basically, what it comes down to is do you want minors or not. If yes, UR is for you, if not SS has better rosters. P.S. SS's rosters have a few minor league players, namely the top prospects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaywil Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Thank you Totte, that is what I thought. On a side note off topic, as you can see I have a hard time when trying to use quotes.
