This is my first OOTP, I've been tempted in years past, but never bit. I've always been a strat-o-matic player. I'm having a great time familiarizing myself with everything though. It's definitely more presentation-friendly than strat ever dreamed of being, lol.

Last couple years have been a huge, huge leap in terms of UI
that's what I am going to do. Ill be out of town due to work for a few days so I wont get to play until Tues night
The Elite
BOSS
It's out on Steam.
Canadian Price on Steam vs. on the official OOTP website is ridiculously better.
It was $55.85 on OOTP website and it's $39.59 on Canadian Steam.
Glad I held off.
And bought. I fear I am in for a world of hurt but the MLB license has made me excited about OOTP once again.
I may stream Excel tomorrow.

bad joke[\spoiler]
I'm excited by all the interest on here for this game. Should be fun getting my ass handed to me as I know very little about baseball but I enjoy the management aspect of games like nba 2k and madden more than the actual gameplay usually.
Also OOTP is 35.00 USD on steam until the 30th so hop on that soon guys!
The guy with .3 hours of playtime says it's good, you couldn't ask for a more solid rec!

see that would have been cool. like an IPad app for on the go management, not sure if thats out there or not.
Pre-order patch info.
I need to try out the new Find a Player function tonight and see how that works. Spent most of my team this weekend customizing my Japanese league sim with official logos and uniforms for all the leagues, photos for some of the players, and getting the Tigers rotation to match the real one.

Downloading from Steam now!
Mattingly's back went out, presumably.

Should we create a Steam group as well for the league?

This game is awesome on my 21:9 monitor. So much data.
Unfair advantage

This. I have a MacBook Pro with an SSD and an old Windows laptop that I use sometimes and the difference with the game is night and day.
Superior Mac gaming.

Haha. About all my Mac gets used for when it comes to gaming is this and Football Manager. Oh, and maybe some Civ every once in awhile.
Well, in my case my MacBook is like 4 or 5 years newer than my old Windows laptop and there are other differences like a quad core vs dual core and my Mac has more RAM, so I don't think the SSD is the only thing in play for me.
Yeah, no joke at all. This game is all about the loading times to boot the save file. Can take forever.

Looks like I have some downloading and catching up to do when I get home. I played quite a bit of 2011, a very tiny bit (like two hours) of 2014 and nothing since.
Can't wait to get home and try it on my 21:9
Which one do you have? I have an LG 34' 1440Pacheron_xl

Probably the same. LG 34UM95. Some screens are better at making use of it than others. The manager's office screen is just nuts, but the player lists could be denser. You could definitely fit more categories in there.
If Arizona is still around I'll take them. Unless the Mariner's owner wants to switch?

I have the same one. Can't wait to tinker with it. I wish I could take it to work with me
Going from that to a 24' screen kills me a little each day.XiaNaphryz

So I have to ask, we keeping the true 2015 draft order? If so... sweet sweet #1 for me
I don't think we're doing an inaugural draft if that's what you're asking.
No I'm referring to the Amateur Draft in June.
Ladies and Ladies we have a Yankees GM
DRUMROLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Ferny:
AT:
AT you have either the Reds, Rockies or Phillies

The Yankees welcome a new GM to their storied franchise. A relative unknown of the system. Grew up under the tutelage of GM Jimmy Jack Jericho, the best GM west of the Mississippi. People call him Ferny and here he is with a breaking interview just moments after finding out he got the job against arch rival, BigAT.
Reporter: So Ferny, how do you feel after finding out the news that you are taking over the GM duties from Cashman?
Ferny: Well, it feels great you know. I feel like I have the tools to bring another championship to New York. Let's face it, the Mets ain't shit.
Reporter: I see. The back pages should eat that quote right up.
Ferny: I learned from my boy Smokey, who is the best 2k player in the Houston area by the way, that sometimes you just gotta eat. That's what the Yankees will do this season. We will eat.
Reporter: Anything else you'll like to tell the rest of the GMs of the GOBL (or whatever our name is)
Ferny: May the best excel sheet manager win!

If anyone wants to see the spreadsheet in action i'll be playing for a half hour or so.

This entire league is basically about financial management when it comes down to it...
