March 4, 200521 yr After playing for a few days, I've disabled the soundtrack entirely. Besides having bad songs, it's annoying when the song thing pops up when I'm trying to read the screen.
March 4, 200521 yr How do you turn the sound off? I turned my tv down, but the stupid song information still pops up on the screen when each song starts.... bugs the s*** out of me when I am in owner mode
March 4, 200521 yr A cool feature for the future would be to have a jukebox in the game and allow you to choose your own songs from that jukebox
March 4, 200521 yr Anyone know if you can (on XBox) use your burned music on your hard drive for the soundtrack on MVP?

March 4, 200521 yr I like the IOU song and that's about it. Do they go to suburbs and ask garage bands for their worst song and then put it on the game or what?

March 4, 200521 yr QUOTE(aboz56 @ Mar 3, 2005 -> 07:29 PM) Tessie should be turned off in everyone's jukebox. I said that earlier in the thread, horrible song. Played my first season game tonight, won in the Bottom of the 9th with a 3-run shot from Frank.
March 4, 200521 yr Okay After reading this thread I remade the Sox... I bought every FA that was worth a damn then traded them away Starting Lineup RF- Carl Crawford 2b- Tadahito Uguchi, SS- Jose Reyes 1b- Mark Teixeira LF- Migeul Caberea CF- Aaron Rowand 3B- Dave McPhearson DH- Nick Swisher C- Joe Mauer SP 1. Jake Peavy 2. Oliver Perez 3. Carlos Zambrno 4. Rich Harden 5, Bradon Webb I think I honestly now have about 15 of the top 100 rookies on my team.. The Barons have 6 on their roster by them selves. Won the first game and made a 500K profit. BTW.. I took about 2-3 hours to perfect the roster, and get everything squared away.
March 4, 200521 yr Author After simming alot i maxed out my stadiums seats, scoreboard and restaurant. All of the rest of the upgrades arent expensive and i should be able to max those out after one more simmed season tomarrow. You dont have any control really what it looks like, but what it is set to look like is awesome I still havent decided if i wanna do a owner mode or dynasty with the sox, Ive started like 4 already, one with owner, then wanting to have The Cell, so i start a dynasty but want more control so i go back to owner and back to dynasty :banghead
March 4, 200521 yr Finished my first season, came out about 7 Million ahead. Made the playoffs, now it is time to jack up the prices and get some cash. Made over a million my first playoff game. Roster if anyone is interested: LF Pods 1B Gload CF Rowand C Mauer SS Uribe 2B Iguchi 3B McPherson RF Swisher DH Pierzynski Bench of Davis, valdez, and 2 computer guys. Pitching 1. Sheets 2. Harden 3 Blaton 4. Kazmir 5. Garland Pen Cotts Politte Marte Baj J.C. Romero Vizcaino Shingo This team won 94 games with me mostly simming. It really pays off to have a low payroll and max out your cash. I revamped the whole team and farm system. My A and AA teams are ranked in the top 5 and have a lot of high prospects as well. This was all done with fair trades. I don't know how, but I made out on top my first year. This is pretty sweet.
March 4, 200521 yr Searched the Trading Blocks and ended up trading Ben Davis for Mike Matheny. AJ vs. righties, Matheny vs. lefties
March 4, 200521 yr Last night in the first game of my series against the Cubs I crushed them 16-6. If not for 6 unearned runs after 3 two out errors in the 5th, I would have won 16-0. Vlad had 7 rbi and Jeremy Reed was 4-6 with 3 doubles. So far I think I'm 27-15 in my first season of a dynasty. I manage about half the games and play about half. I'm only in the hole a few hundred thousand so far, so hopefully down the stretch and in the playoffs I'll make a profit.
March 4, 200521 yr Anybody else see when you pitch, sometimes, the ball looks like it is black? Does that mean anything or is the game screwed up a tad?

That's the hitters eye. Watch the ball right after it is released and if it is red, its a curveball/splitter, white is fastball, and green is offspeed. It took me a while to figure that out because I didn't read the manual, but it really helped my hitting. I just sit on fastballs and slap line drives all over.

No, I know what the hitter's eye is. this is different. Just all of a sudden, the ball is grey or black. Even when it is in play.

I took about 2-3 hours to perfect the roster, and get everything squared away. love ur rotation, u should win lots of games on that alone.....if there is a guy by the name of J Allen in FA, pick him up immediately and put him at 2nd base. He turned into a GG winner my first season putting him there(he's orginally a CF) and he's a great contact hitter. Also there's a CF prospect in the Expos organization(I think it's Jerry Owens) in 1A and he turns into a great all around hitter. I like your team though. You might not turn profit or much of it after the first season, but after the second season you should, so don't worry.
March 4, 200521 yr i finally after about 20 drafts and starting multiple seasons repeatedly getting bored with my team ive created one thats young cheap and i really enjoy. C: Joe Mauer 1B: Mark Texiera 2B: Rickie Weeks SS: BJ Upton 3B: David Wright LF: Carl Crawford CF: Coco Crisp(just like his name) RF: Willy Mo Pena Starting Rotation: 1: Jake Peavy 2: Oliver Perez 3: Zack Greinkie 4: Sean Burnett 5: Edwin Jackson Bench: Charles Thomas Sandy Alomar jr Brian Roberts Joe Crede Nick Swisher Bullpen: Frankie Francisco Arnie Munoz Jessie Crain that japanese Otsuna guy i think from padres Brandon League prob a couple bullpen guys that right now i cant think of but thats the core.

March 4, 200521 yr I'm realizing i'm having more fun with this game if i just play w/ the default settings and don't mess with sliders.
March 5, 200521 yr Can anyone explain: why Ben Davis, Sandy alomar jr and Timo Perez are rated higher than AJ? Edited March 5, 200521 yr by rangercal
