But which SimCity though?

SCEA has a significantly smaller dev team than does 2k. So that may be part of the reason.[/quote]


I suppose if that's true than I shouldn't be too frustrated than.




If the Show had to sacrifice the rest of their game to get advanced stat tracking right, I'd have to say No, Thank You. [/quote]


I would completely agree here, but seeing as baseball is a game of strategy built on stats it is very disappointing for me.

Quick question for y'all...in franchise mode, your budget can either be preset (just pick a team and start), or calculated based on total salary from fantasy draft + $10 mil. Is there any way to make all teams have the same budget? Has anyone had any luck with setting everyone's contract equal, then holding the draft, then letting the salaries correct themselves after year 1?

My friends and I like to get together once a week (Monday nights for Madden frans, Sunday nights for MLB) and do our franchise, each of us with our own team. Having different budgets kinda kills the fun a little bit, since I loaded up on prospects last time only to have a massively lower budget than another team who drafted Darvish, Ibanez, Rivera, Pettitte, etc.

Thought of a question.

Has there been any changes to the draft this year? Longer? More players? Better scouting?

Thanks!

Why is it so complex adding NRIs to a spring training roster? Is it tricky? Impossible to do?... What's the score here!?
Also, would scrapping the cash grab DD mode free up space to improve franchise even more? I know it's completely unlikely, but for me personally, modes like that seem like a waste into making a game that much better when your attention is on a single mode at all times.

DD is like a commercial in any broadcast television show; it helps foot the bill to help even make the game possible for any of us.

DD isnt going anywhere. So time to accept it. And when did they say DD is all they focused on
