Fictional Roster?

[leoalure]

Update, since no one is doing a roster for fictional baseball, I am making my own. If you have 2k16 on the PS4, then you should know my fictional rosters are sim based and  leaning toward realism.



Personally,  I grew up in the era of the long ball. So you will see power guys but they will not be overpowered. I have ways to balance players out and make certian players have value where others do not. I want a roster where you can both do a fantasy draft or take a team from the start with the players already in it.



My goal is to finish this however,  it takes a long time to make every single player on every team. So please be patient if you want to use this. Otherwise, it will still be for my personal use.



So far teams complete are BALTIMORE, BOSTON, NEW YORK YANKEES,  ATLANTA, CHICAGO CUBS.



Full rotations, lineups, accessories,  player faces and apperances, personality, contracts.

I would love this also, I've seen a base roster in the vault that has no MLB players, but there aren't enough players to fill out all three levels and they're all 70's and lower.

Fictional Rosters would be a lot of fun though, great for fantasy draft franchises.

Lol I feel stupid now, but what's the motivation behind using a fictional roster instead of scea or real?

Edit: well I guess the guy above me sort of explained it... I did create a team of South Park characters in a franchise one year. It was pretty entertaining. One thing that I liked about it was that I wasnt concerned about keeping their stats somewhat in sync w/their real life counterpart, b/c they don't have a real life counterpart. I just played and enjoyed the game.

So I guess I get it now.

Create your own universe. No bias as to who should be good and who shouldn't. In some ways it's more immersive because you are learning all the players from scratch.

While I don't use fictional rosters, I find I ALWAYS have more fun once the leagues populate with fictional players.

More surprises, more scouting (since you can't go by name), interesting skill sets/player types, etc.

In some cases, I find sports games more "balanced" (or more easily adapted with sliders) than with real players. That's less so in The Show than with other games I've played, though and talking only about game-generated fictionals.
