Ultimate Baseball GM 2024 12+

Great game, very minor improvements needed

Game is great to play and is essentially exactly what I was looking for. I’ve played the game a lot since downloading and purchased the premium, which I still think was worth it.

All that said, there are a few minor improvements that I think could take the game to the next level.

First is realism. While I don’t expect a completely realistic game (nor do I care much), some stats are just too unrealistic. Pitchers throwing 400+ strikeouts, batters hitting over .400, the list goes on. Making these stats at least slightly more realistic might be an improvement.

Second for me is season length and trade deadlines. The trade deadline is earlier than the real life deadline but the season goes an extra month, so there isn’t any real possibility of trading in or out of playoff contention if your on the cusp, often making season goals a matter of luck.

All in all great game, will keep playing but would love to see those updates.

Love it with one exception

This game is amazing I love ever part of it, one fact that is continuing to pop up is the way the in game managers control their pitching staff. The amount of times I choose the play game option and the manager leaves the starter in for all nine innings is crazy. I just had a game where We lose 13-5 and the starter stayed in the whole game giving up all 13 runs. When you pick “play game” it would enhance the experience of the game if you could handle you’re own pitching staff somehow. Where you can put in pitchers that are on your roster so you can actually have a chance to win. Instead of keeping the starter in and letting them get shelled and you just lose that game. You don’t have to change anything else. No need for defensive subs or hitting subs because you as a GM or player should already have your best hitters and fielders on the field. I play this game all the time and love it. I think this would put it over the top. Thanks

Please allow more customization

I’m a Premium user of Basketball GM.
I enjoy being able to customize the league’s teams. I also own Football GM, but not yet Premium and probably because there are no logos to choose from.
In Baseball GM, my biggest issue is that my customization is very limited being that the game comes with the teams already having hard coded lettered logos. What if I don’t want a Honolulu Wings in my major league, but I do want a major league New Orleans team? It would be hard to rename the teams being that the logos are HW and NO and already hard tied to a color scheme and hard tied to a league.
The difference with Basketball GM is that the logos were not letter logos, but images and I could tie any image to any city I wanted as long as I thought up an appropriate nickname that fit the logo image. Much harder to figure out team names when I am forced to work with logos like IB, HW, HK and so on...
if possible, I would say allow for users to be able to change the logos. At lease be able to choose from a list of lettered logos. A list of different stylized letters and allow them to change color scheme when users edit the team colors.
Third would be a great update to Basketball GM and Football GM as well...

I think not being able to customize how I want kind of dampers my interest and is keeping me from becoming Premium.
