OOTP Announces Sweet New Features: Managers, Owners, and More

“That video game looks like a spreadsheet,” some doubter once said to me.

“That doesn’t look fun,” another has said.

Well, those jerks can go play their laser games and their wizard sports because Out of the Park Baseball (OOTP) is just about the funnest a simulation game can be. And it looks like OOTP16 is going to be even better. Why?

Controlling owners. Manager personalities. More detailed team finance displays.

It almost sounds like satire, but I’m genuinely tickled the OOTP team announced a bevy of new complexities for their ever-impressive video game. The owners and managers are both getting more features, options, and quirks.

But first! A new finance screen!

This is nice because it will save me some time flipping back and forth from the Team Info to the Graphs to the Advanced sections. Now I can amalgamate the greatest hits into one screen.

Here’s a look at the new owners:

And they’re coming with a list of demands!

And now managers are going to have more discrete tendencies, and we can control how much they control even more!

I’m excited.
