I preordered the game. I hope it is good. I used to play Season
Ticket Baseball 2003, and thought it was fun. Do you think it will be
much better?

That's not quite what Markus Heinsohn said on the OOTP 6 message board:
->Well, I can tell you that we are very close to release date, but it will
->not be before Friday... So, anything can happen over the weekend!
->
->PS: There will be some surprise features, which I will code in the
->remaining days...
->
->PPS: The game is well worth the wait, I love the new engine... it finally
->feels like real baseball instead of numbers crunching!
Friday would be the earliest it might be out, but I'd say another 2 or 3
days are likely. As somebody else as mentioned, I'm a bit concerned that
he's still coding it and will release it with at most a day or two of
testing. As much as I'm looking forward to getting it, I think he'd be wise
to put a couple of weeks into beta testing the final product.

Far, far better. Markus and Company have incorporated the actual labor
agreement (Rule V, waiver rules, etc). They've tweaked the AI so that scouts
pay more attention to performance than skills (which can be tweaked by the
player). The scouting reports can be the same as real-life scouting reports
(abilities judged from 2-8) or other methods.
The in-game has also been tweaked, with not only more commentary, but more
variables and types of plays.
And Season Ticket Baseball 2003 was based on, if I recall, OOTP4, not OOTP5.
OOTP5 had a ton of stuff more than OOTP4 (ie. the manager mode in which you
play the role of a manager, get hired, fired, etc.)

STB2003 was OOTP4, so this is two generations later for me. I thought
STB2003 was great, so I should like this one. I am looking forward to
it. I wonder how the online head to head game management will work.

Seems like a new OOTP game comes out every few months or so. Is this the
case?
Myself, I never cared for such GM games. Leave the finances and the price
of hot dogs to the big guys, I just want to play the games.
Drafts are fun, however. How much to sell tickets for is not.

I think we should start getting used to this type of games, as they'll soon
be the only kind of sports gaming left on pc.

I was thinking the same thing about '...code in the coming days.' You'd
think there'd be some time period testing the release candidate with just
big fixes to be added.

Well, Diamond Mind Baseball and Stratomatic Baseball don't come out with new
game engines every year, just new season disks. Does that count?
See, it's this type of behavior that bothers people. Why couldn't you just
have said, "No, I believe that it comes out only once a year." What was the
point of the "(cough)?" Where did he ask how this compares to other sports
games?

Why don't you just tell the guy what it means? He didn't ask if you thought
he was kidding or anything similar. He wanted to know what "STFU" meant.
Though there are more important things to know, I'd like to know myself.
And seeing that we are all such civil people, I might guess at what the last
two letters stand for.
Are the first two "Stand Tall"?

I think it was probably one of those things of class separation. For
somebody who spends every waking moment on the Internet and has no actual

For those who do not meet the above criteria, then it is an unknown acronym.
For him .. it would be something like: 401K
He'd be stumped there.
