or maybe you could have E Res (or fielding) tie into the amount of passed balls, including Knuckleballs.
and I think that knuckleballs should be wild pitches about 10-20% of the time, a lot more than the other pitches.

E Res is already tied into passed balls, I think.

It is, those catchers with great fielding ability have no where near the amount of passed balls that bad defensive catchers have.

One thing that the could add to next years game is intentional walks...
I have never had a pitcher intentionally walk my power hitter....when there is an open base...

1) AL teams need to PH for their pitchers late in games when playing in NL teams parks. it doesnt happen often if ever.
2) dont stretch success mode from 10 to 20, stretch it to 30 like every other baseball game.
3) make minor leagues deep. include a AAA and AA team for each team so you can build up your franchise.
4) fully customizable create a team. from jerseys, to concessions, to coaches, to stadium. have finances from your sales directly affect how much money you have left to spend on players in the offseason.
5) custom leagues. if you only want 24 teams and 4 divisions in your league....so be it. you should make the leagues more customizable so if you want 24 created teams to be in your league and have it just be those created teams then you should be able to get it that way.
6) make bunting a little easier and close plays at bases a little easier to see how close the play went or if the player was safe or out.
7) PS3!!!!!!!!!!!!! please!

Make replays like Madden and you can take screenshots or take clips so you can put together a highlight reel.

1. That's a good point, never noticed that.
2. Of course.
3. Of course (again)
4. That would be cool. Like the current system combined with the Owner's Box in Franchise Mode in Madden.
5. Yeah, though the League mode isn't used very much.
6. I definitely agree. Different camera angles for the replays is a must.
7. :lol: Spread the Love!

Kid interaction.
Here's what they should do for it, relevant to pic. changes:
0-3: Feed bottle, cuddle, etc.
4-8: Play with toys, go to park, etc.
9-16: Play catch, hitting, go for a run, more training oriented stuff, but no stat boost for character. Play baseball with boys, softball with girls.
17+: Real drills, postion based. Catchers can have their kids ptich to them, infielders throw to them as a 1st baseman, etc. Gives a small stat boost to player as well.
Edit: Alright. Here's a list i'll work on.
0-3: Hold and rock to sleep/nap. Feed bottle. Nothing. (there's an option to do npthing for everyone, so...)
4-8: Play with toys in house. Go outside and play. Nothing.
9-16: Go to lunch/dinner. Practice togther (options to come). Nothing.
17+: Same as above, but lunch more expensive, and better/stat boosting practices.

I hate how they sub you out in success mode. I can't excel at EVERYTHING! Well... I can, but not when I've dated Patty 1/4 of the game!

They usually won't intentionally walk you, but you can intentionally walk them.

This is for DarkShade:

Kid interaction in My Life
Madden-like replay system
Fully customizeable team options(Concessions,stadium,promotional days etc.)
Japanese stadiums as unlockables
More Throwback Jerseys and bring them into season and Life
Let us unlock old-timers
Drop the 20-inning limit, move it back to 40 or 50 if you have to have it.
World Baseball Classic Mode
More terrible injuries
More save slots for success mode

These are just the Highlights for DS so he can add them to the list.

Give US the option if we want to see the purple, orange, blue, or grey lines on a players namebar. Some people might keep it there, but I would love to get rid of it, it completely annoys me. Or at least change the color of the edited people to a better color, not purple. I know exactly why they do it, I just don't want to look at those ugly bars.
