I agree like this one for example are there more stats stored for offline Franchise also?

"More player stats stored for every season (Online Franchise)"

Yeah, that I think is the big one. Something that's been requested for a long time.

These ones seem like they would be part of any franchise mode as they are just behind the scenes logic improvements and maybe just a mistake that the (Online Franchise) was added. I just can't see them only implementing these improvements into the online franchise.

- Refined player generation, with more position-specific attribute ranges (Online Franchise)
- New contract decision logic, which factors in contract renewable and arbitration status more heavily (Online Franchise)
- New lineup logic that takes into account secondary positions (Online Franchise)
- Refined trade logic (Online Franchise)

These are obviously only for online franchise.

-New user management functionality at TheShowNation.com (Online Franchise)
-Make, accept, and vote on trades through TheShowNation.com (Online Franchise)
-Resolve and simulate games on TheShowNation.com (Online Franchise)
-League members can now manage games on TheShowNation.com (Online Franchise)



But these two.

- Retired players stored for every season (Online Franchise)
- More player stats stored for every season (Online Franchise)

They seem like they could be an online only feature if the data is store online and only accessible through the online franchise menus. I hope not, but they could have gone this route technically.

I assume the carry over saves includes Season mode as well.

One question I have is if grounders hitting CPU pitchers has been improved?

As well as RTTS mode

I think this is the key.
I think this is likely for stats ....as storing on the4(saved data) or online servers is a big difference.

To be honest, one of my greatest desires are:

non roster invites- this would be huge. I know people will be excited to try out guys who are deemed "wash outs" and have an impact.

Scouting-it was fantastic in 13. I would like to see more personality. I want scouts to value a player differently. It would add a new element to the game. I want scouts to overvalue and undervalue players in the draft.

My hope is if that is the case you will have the option to have your data stored online for normal franchise mode. They added some online stat tracking for RTTS so I feel like this is possible.

Either I haven't read everything right, or I'm just not seeing it. Will they have more commentary in RTTS this year? Kinda killed it for me in last year's game. That's usually the mode I play the most, but it became pretty boring without some banter.
