Get over it and move past this; consistently littering the boards with your negativity (same subject + multiple posts) does the community no good.

Like the rest of us, put your suggestions for SCEA into the appropriate thread (future game enhancements).

Thanks Ran for your helpful advice.....Not being negative, simply truthful. Baseball is built on STATS and stat tracking.....Games that track them do well, those that do not are not 2K9....I, like everyone else here can and will continue to leave my opinions. You love everything about the game, great. I do not share your sentiments. I will not subscribe to a web site to track online league stats when the game should do it for us. Thanks again for your opinion though. That's what these boards are for.

We have added code to ensure that any packet loss that may occur is handled. Bat ball connection in both real-time and replay has had a lot of attention."

Hey Knight.....I just meant that for all that 2K does not do right, they have had this feature in their online leagues as well as better league websites, etc. since the beginning of their run....I just don't understand because in The Show they track all our players stats in the offline franchise and season modes. I just wish this was incorporated in the online leagues as well, that's all.

I just read that the computer does not control the remaining teams in the online mode?

This doesn't really make sense - how can you circumvent people from stacking their teams in small leagues?

Do they put each player into a tier and draft a certain amount of players from each tier?

Thanks

let me get this right, you can listen to game audio of other peoples games in an online league? how would that work?

My assumption is that like last year when following the on-screen animation (like the ESPN diamond when following baseball games on your computer) of a game you will now also have audio, which to me seems better as the animations were a tad behind the actual gameplay. I used to follow it from the SportsConnect website by going to Games> Who's Playing and then search for the screenname of the league member you are following. Not sure if the website will also allow audio as well, but from the console is a step-up, nonetheless.
