There are now keystroke commands for all the basic strategic options. Download and try the demo. It's free.
As for OOTP2006, I elected not to purchase the game after reading about several issues that really disappointed me. Reading this topic has only discouraged me further. It sounds like OOTP has taken a major step backwards in historical replay. I would really love to have a baseball sim that would provide statistically accurate and realistic historical replays, especially with the online league capabilities that you see with OOTP.
But every game seems to have a fatal flaw. Diamond Mind requires expensive season disks and does not have career mode. The same can be said for Strat-O-Matic. The current version of OOTP sounds like absolute crap for historical replays, and PureSim still lacks the most basic features, like requiring pitchers to be warmed up in the bullpen and online league functionality.
Is there any hope for me in any product on the market? Or is there a complete lack of a game that combines accurate historical replay, the Lahman database, full strategic options, and online league functionality?
