Steam key is Monday. Has been said a couple of times in many threads.

You can hover over each icon to get the year and description of the award. After a few times, you get to know what they are by sight and it just becomes seeing what year they won what. If you playing with multiple leagues where players can migrate, seeing which league they belonged to when they won is also fun.

You get the Steam key AFTER it is available on Steam, which probably is on the 23rd. It's explained in the fine print at the bottom.

One question on the Blackbirds / Robins game on Mon. Jun. 16, 2042 that was cancelled and rescheduled for 4/9/2042. Is Doc Brown breaking out his DeLorean to go back to April 9th or are we going to mix American and European style dates on the same page?

MizzouRah · 03-18-2015, 01:29 PM

Well done Markus and team! My passion for OOTP is back up! Taking 3 days off next week too.

Doc Brown, of course.

Just handed over my vacation form for Friday,

Oh yeahhhhhhh !!!

Sabres2000 · 03-18-2015, 01:36 PM

As far of the find player if we play with stars can up search by stars too or no?

Finding players for my minor leagues for my expansion team just became 10 times easier

Am I the only one who doesn't think Mehpare Qaralashvili was Hall material?

I am certain that Marty McFly will get the start.

That's my favorite part. The part where my loved ones will hate it!!!! LOL

I meant in terms of what each are specifically. Like the blue/purple one what it stands for. I know the bat one is hitter of the year and the star is all-star games...just wondering if there's an icon list available now.

- HOF plaques
- HOF voting
- All-Star voting (fan voting!)
- Pop-ups!
- And best of all - advanced player search feature

David Watts · 03-18-2015, 02:08 PM

Stupid question time and more than likely it's obvious to everyone but me

Just wondering how the new Hall of Fame criteria will work with shortened seasons, say 132 games or less?

pjh5165 · 03-18-2015, 02:10 PM

Wow, this is the best RtR post I can remember reading. I think I've officially hit peak excitement for Friday's release. Thanks as always to Markus and the crew.

Go Tribe · 03-18-2015, 02:11 PM

To tell the truth, I never thought Felipe Molina was going to get in to the HOF. On the ballot for a few years with his votes hovering between 40 and 60 percent until slowly rising up and finally getting inducted in 2040. I'm sure his grandfather, Yadier, was really proud.
