October 15 HBD Release - Feedback Thread Topic

Clearly I think a lot of guys have given up even though major issues remain. I Still cannot read the text of any messages that were sent to my inbox, this will be a real big problem if I am looking at potential waiver claims or other items where the detail I am receiving would be helpful in how I want to run my team. It also does appear that major inaccessibility remains with the lineup pages using older Windows systems and the same is true using my IPhone which uses a screen reading technology as well. Here is the bottom line, your mobile improvements have thus completely destroyed any ability for me to manage my team using of all things, a damn mobile device. WE are now exactly 8 weeks post roll out and that does not even include the few months prior to that for those blessed owners who were beta testers. yet it seems significant issues remain and this has been much more problematic than any of the issues we faced when the game first launched and was being appropriately updated during the first months of 2006.

I remember the growing pains we went through with the game in 2006 but the whole process was very fun as we could clearly see the game evolving and improving to the point it feels like you are running a real MLB organization in this game. My championship victories in this game, the first two days after finishing cancer treatments in 2008 are true memories that I will always hold on too. Can we get this game back to what made it so great, which means a more basic interface that is not full of so many bugs and limitations for users on so many devices? I firmly stand by my New Coke analogy and in retrospect, perhaps you should have either built a separate mobile website for the game or better yet, a fully integrated WIS app for this and all other WIS games. You could have even charged 4-5 bucks for a well made app and most of us probably would have bought in and shared it with folks who had never played WIS games before. I'm just saying.

One more thing, the inbox message issue I mentioned a few moments ago could be a very difficult item for me when free agency starts after my new seasons begin in a pair of worlds. So I'm telling you that this must be resolved and rather soon as both worlds start any day.

jwynkoop2424 - go to your Management Console page, down to Game Results Settings. If you have 'ML Only' or 'All' selected, then the PO results will be hidden since the PO's are ML games, select 'None' if you want the scores to show up on the office page.

Cwisniewski, THANK YOU!!!! I have no idea why it changed from what it was as soon as we hit the playoffs, it was driving me nuts. I have/had not been in my management console page since the beginning of the season. Either way, thank you!

Let me add that the world chat issue is only in Uecker, not in Ott/Crash Davis.

Thank you for your response Trent, appreciated. The play by play, and box score are side by side. I used to be able to enlarge the box score on the right, which is what I use most of the time. I can't do that now. With the pitching issue, the opening move with my pitcher takes three clicks before I can schroll down to make my move. I am currently running seven teams, and I check both my major and Minor league teams, so the extra clicks add up, especially when I am in a hurry. Once again, I am running my teams mostly on an I pad. I know these things are probably trivial, but annoy me just the same. I am not very computer literate but I have not changed my I pad settings, so I don't understand. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you, Trent

keeid12x,

Can you elaborate on this point "With the pitching issue, the opening move with my pitcher takes three clicks before I can schroll down to make my move. "?

This is how I'm managing my pitching staff on an ipad.

Click Manager...Edit Pitching Staff in nav menu (2 clicks).
Click position role box for a player, then click new role (2 clicks)
Scroll and click Save button (1 click)

This should be the same number of clicks as prior to redesign.

If any pitchers are on rest, that section should be opened by default (which is what I'm seeing).

Sounds like I'm missing something you are doing.  Please share so we can learn more.

Regarding box score, the user settings we have slated to be rolled out next week will address your issue.

Thanks

I'm an iphone user as well and have gotten used to it, but your comment about the pinching is exactly on target. I think because of it the old site was working okay for me; it wasn't optimized for mobile but it still worked okay on my iphone.

When I get to my pitching staff and I, for instance have to switch my long reliever to rest, I click once, and the options appear, but when I go to scroll down to make the switch, the whole page moves rather than the options. I click again, the options go away, click again, they reappear, and I am then able to scroll down to the player rest option and make my move. Any move after that is fine, no problem. It is just on the first move I make with each of my pitching staffs. Probably a trivial thing, but with 7 teams, 6 pitching staffs for each the clicks just add up. I hope this explains my problem, and I appreciate your response to this issue I have. Thank you so much.

I'm having some issue accessing sitemail so let me answer the question about the inbox message, I think the two are some how related. When I click the link to read the message, nothing is loaded. The improvements to the lineups at least using my windows 8 machine are much appreciated. One other quick item, the available players would not load on the FA page for me when using my Windows 7 work machine, my home PC with 8 handles those pages just fine.

With my Fargo team in Ichiro world now going into the early phase of a new season, will get back to you on the mailbox issues, coach contracts will be a more than frustrating process due to this starting Monday.
