LetsGoOakland Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Is it just me or does the game use REAL money? Look at the prices of seats (with dollar signs). And when he talks about his payroll, did he say 104,100,000/year. That's gotta be in REAL dollars and not points (just without dollar signs?). If true, this is something that a) is good (I hate using "points" for salaries) and was totally unexpected. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkB Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 I read it half an hour ago. According to the article and the forums, the game does use real money. Woohoo! Much better than points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

five Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 I was actually wondering the same thing. I was thinking before there was a reason (by the mlbpa ??) that they couldn't post actual contracts / costs. Edit: After doing a search, I found what I was thinking of: check this thread.

LetsGoOakland Posted February 10, 2005 Author Share Posted February 10, 2005 That's awesome. I don't care if they use a dollar sign or not, so long as I am not having to do math to find out how much I am spending on a free agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disengage Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 I wish it would say if you can have Turf and the Bases on those little dirt islands like Skydome and the Metrodome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LetsGoOakland Posted February 10, 2005 Author Share Posted February 10, 2005 Or turf with an actual infield like Tropicana or the dirt path that is missing from the BOB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carter Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Money is good. I can't wait to hire and fire managers and coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LetsGoOakland Posted February 10, 2005 Author Share Posted February 10, 2005 Yeah, I wonder if you can edit the fake coaches, that would be cool if you wanted to put yourself in or a classic manager like Billy Martin or Connie Mack. Managers have portraits so top notch guys like cubsfaninfla and Hory will be needed to come up with portraits for edited coaches :mrgreen: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

APR Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 It would be cool if he would have showcased the Create-a-Stadium options a little more, seeing as though it is a new feature to the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I doubt the managers will have portraits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LetsGoOakland Posted February 10, 2005 Author Share Posted February 10, 2005 In this year's game, managers do have portraits. Refer to the IGN diary on Owner Mode. Managers being drafted in Jon Robinson's fantasy draft with the Giants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
