Crazy Li Joined: 01/25/2015 Posts: 879 Inactive | Very useful info especially for people not used to baseball sim. Even I found it to be a good read and I'm only new to BB but not sims in general. I probably have to take the advice to go slow and evaluate because the attributes here are different than the attributes in other games. They don't translate to the same performance. Getting hasty and thinking you understand how to evaluate players right from the start is a mistake. You have to learn this game and how it works in order to learn how to read talent properly. |

I'd also like to see the game locate a chat system that people can use to talk in real time. Many different chat systems exist, some of which are free, and i think it'd make it easier to communicate so that people don't lose interest in the game because they can't get a quicker answer to their questions than every 15-20 minutes a person checks the boards help section. I've been trying to pull people to buzzerbeater's chat system (Mibbit) and walk them through the basics of what they should be doing, but really haven't gotten many actively on there yet that weren't on their for that simulation game. |

They are your best resource to get a feel for the game. Post questions if you need help but reading back through the forums is the best way to get an understanding of the game. You don't have to believe every opinion thrown out there, but you can get a feel for what is known and what is still being debated about how the game works. |
