Carry-over File Saves in MLB 21 .... What exactly do we Lose ?

[baseballrosters]

Just asking for clarification.
Do We Lose ONLY Year-To-Year FRANCHISE Saves, or do we also lose the quick transfer of individual (classic) roster files, as was introduced in MLB 20. Another issue is do we Lose the ability to "Import/Export" players from a franchise file, into a roster file.

For me it is a major pain for this year... the reason is the game is delayed a month. also roster creators usually take a month to create them.. it will be even longer this year because now they have to start from scratch because we can't use the export and import trick from a previous year. so your looking at June before you even play with a accurate roster rather then April like previous years

This year my plan was to play the show 20 now in a franchise in a updated roster I have been working on with service time updates contract etc so it was like it was 2021. then I was simply going to play that franchise into mlb 21.. now that can't happen. I either have to sit back wait a month of the game being delayed then wait another month for the roster updates. or spend weeks and days of time fixing the rosters.

So I will probably just stick to 20 this year. and maybe buy 21 at the end of the year. usually I loved starting my franchise with the big roster updates in April. and I was really going to use the carry over saves at it's best this year because of the delay and the fact we can edit service time made this possible.

To answer your question I don't think we will be able to import rosters either.. simply for 2 reasons the XBOX that feature won't be in the PS5 version because they won't make it for one and not the other and xbox has no previous versions of it.

The other reason is people have said well.. if franchise is changing then that is why carry overs don't work meaning the rosters have changed... this also means a importing of an old roster won't be compatible..

so it's either the xbox fault or. they are changing franchise so the rosters are different.. either way both would not work with importing rosters. my speculation of cause I hope I am wrong.

How can you say these things for sure.
There is no confirmation of these things, correct ?

I am speculating using logical thinking that is all, taking a educated guess and I see no reason why that roster import option would be in the game if carry overs are not in the game. if import rosters from last year was in the game then it would make zero sense why franchise can't be as well. unless we are talking about franchise being completely different here. who knows if it is they might pull a EA and take 30 team control out if it's completely rebuilt and that scares me too madden never recovered from that move.

For 99.9% of the show players this is a non issue.

It’s just seems blown out of proportion here because it’s a hardcore gaming site.

Would it have been great to have it yes. But is it a game killer for me or the majority of others? Imo No.

I’m happy w the news I heard and going into this understand they’re developing for a new system and revamping everything. So not everything from last gen will be there.

Maybe I am dumb, but, I do not correlate the "Y2Y" and roster files as holding hands. They both seem separate to me.

Well anybody that wants a accurate roster wouldn't be 99.9% of people that 'don't care; I am sure there will be 1 million posts of 'when are the OSFM rosters coming out where do I get them?' those people won't know it's going to be later this year without the carry over save exporting players trick

The only answer that matters right now.

Nobody here knows.
