Because basically the only defensive stat you're going to have as a 1B is errors.

Ummm...you think Bort can code catchers to "call games"?

I don't see how it'd be hard... especially if you treat it as a tactics issue.

Sorry. Disagreeing with you is not trolling. Good try tho champ.

If you don't think Catchers could be much more well thought out than any position on the field you clearly don't know much about baseball.

As far as first base goes there could be a wealth of aspects to that too. There are actually a ton of viable things that could be done in terms of attributes and signature abilities if it was well thought out.

You wouldn't have to get into Catchers "calling a game". That would be an AI type deal possibly. But there are tons of other aspects to catchers that would make them much more interesting to build than probably any position outside of maybe pitcher.

Baseball is so crazy that you could get nuts with player types and abilities. Just have to give less SP so you can't be great at everything.

I know plenty about baseball. We're not talking about baseball. We're discussing a baseball sim. You can do whatever you want but BB MMORPG has been done to death.

Of course I'm arguing with people that think Bort rolling out with GLB as his second game was a good business decision. Yeah, once GLB joins GLB in the WG fold let's bring out a worn out subgenre for game 3.

If those things have been done to death you wouldn't have a point in anything you have brought up thus far. So either you are just talking out of your ass or now you are backing up on your claims. I have played at least 10 baseball mmo's and all have been terribly thought out or designed around actually playing the game. At which point I would rather just buy a game for the console. A good baseball sim could be fun if done right. I just haven't seen one step up to the task yet. Though I said that about football too and stumbled into GLB.

As far as my thoughts on GLB2. Not sure I ever claimed the business decision was smart or good. But I also have no say in it either way so I am just rolling with it like anyone else instead of spreading diarrhea around the main forums pissing and moaning about it every chance possible.

You kind of made my point by posting that. Why on earth would someone that has never heard of GLB or WG games try out an "11th" game? The last time a new BB MMORPG came out I didn't even look at it for that reason.

No, I was discussing a potential BB game and you brought in your agenda (troll to kill off people that don't like GLB2). Please stop trying to pretend this isn't the case.

For the same reason they would come in to play a Football, Hockey, basketball, soccer, racing, fishing, wrestling, etc...simulation. If the sim is good. People will come.

Given WG's track record as far as advertising I seriously doubt it. Back in 2008 they relied on spammed referral links in various sports forums. Here in 2013 message boards are going the way of the dinosaur. I don't see them having even remotely the same success as they had with GLB unless they open up the checkbook and advertise.
