Four Reasons to Play Out of the Park Baseball

[RaychelSnr]

Thanks to their consistently quality work and continued updates, Out of the Park Developments routinely produces a super product in Out of the Park Baseball. Out of the Park 15 looks to be the latest iteration of one of the highest rated games here at Operations Sports.

If you haven’t tried this text sim before -- and if OOTP's quality continues its upward trend -- here are four reasons to give OOTP 15 a shot...

Amen.
This is such an underrated game because it is a text based game IMO.
Once an Ipad version is available...I'm back into it.
The perfect "on the go" game!

I've always been interested in trying this game out. Looks like the iPad version of last year's game is only $1.99 right now, so I might give that a shot, and see how I like it before taking the full price plunge on the desktop version.

Try out the past versions for Mac or PC. They are usually free and give you a basic understanding of how the game plays. I've been playing this since OOTP 10 and its by far the best GAME I have played. The first two years, I just played Offline games, but once I tried an online game, I was hooked. Online leagues are incredible. If you're a baseball fan and like the transaction side of it, try it out.

I didn't realize that they gave away the older versions on their site. If I like the iPad version (which I already bought, because $2), I might move up to 13 on desktop before spending the money on the newest version.

I have tons of fun playing it. I usually start off unemployed and then work myself up to a MLB GM. I usually set it up so my manager (comp) controls the lineups and minors. Then I spend the rest of the time trading or signing players, adjusting the roster, and managing injuries. After I build up a team I usually wait until my favorite team offers me a GM spot, or join one of the worst teams to build them up.

Played MLB 14 The Show today, turned it off after a few games and went back to OOTP 14. The amount of realism and detail in this game is unparalleled. Passing on purchasing MLB 14 this year in favor of OOTP 15. April 18th can't come soon enough!

They are totally different games.

OOTP is great. I always run into the same problem though - I mess with all the options and never really get a franchise going.

I've thought about being manager and working my way up, but it gets a bit frustrating at times managing A ball etc...
