MLB Manager 2016 App Reviews

On it 24/7!!!

Just a heads up for those that have MLB Manager 2015. There is not much difference between this and last years release, other than the roster changes of course. Its still a great game. I purchased to show my ongoing support, and in hopes of a major revamp for next year (which was suggested by OOTP in the online forum).

Enjoy it a lot. Perfect for baseball nerds.

I play this sim a lot. I have run at least 7 different teams 15-20 years out into the future using the 2015 and 2016 versions. I now own the full stats pack for all seasons and am running past seasons forward to the present. Its not perfect and the player stats are questionable on their evolution season to season vs reality. I must admit that the full OOTP has spoiled me but it still is a lot of fun because its simple and fast and I love that I can pay on my iPad. The one major complaint is the placement of the touch button to let the computer set up the entire team being dangerously placed near touch commands that are used often and NOT having an "Are you sure?" check off with it. One fat fingering and my hard work of setting things up are all gone. DEVELOPERS PLEASE PUT IN A SAFETY CHECK FOR THIS!!!!! Who is this game for? Its not for live action gamers. There arent "cool" graphics or any animations. It is for those who know baseball and how its played from the GM level down to the pitch calling for a giving pitcher batter matchup and all levels in between. It aloows you t move up and down seamlessly at an point of running the sim. Again, its not as rich as the full OOTP game but is worth a try for those interested in trying out the sim style. Addendum: The Injury Frequency is far too extreme. Ive played 3 teams out 15-20 years each. In all three cases the number of starters on the DL is 3-5 at nearly all times. Injuries are part of the game however this does not reflect reality and drastically slows the game play down thus to maintain realism I need to toggle the injury setting on and off 2 weeks per month tho improve the feel to a realistic rate. Developers: Do one for the NFL please.

This game is an exceptional game. Its very addicting and I play it all the time!!

Playing this game on my iphone, ipad and PC. The game deep as ocean, but MLB MANAGER sucks. Why? Cuz there are no NPB, KBO & minor leagues...so you just cant check players stats. How should I sign players from minors, if stats 0-0-0-0?

Tons of fun. Great to do while multitasking or watching a game. Would definitely recommend.

The game crashes on my iPad Air 2. Happened a handful,of times couple weeks ago then started working again. Now it is crashing and freezing again and will not allow me to play. If worked, 5 stars. Doesnt work, so 1 star. Had this game for three years now but this crashing problem inexcusable! Buyer beware!

Just downloaded and the main screen comes up and then goes black. Not what I paid for is there a fix to this? Or can I get my money back? This is happening for others!!!!

Basically the diet coke version of Out of the Park Baseball. Not as in depth as ootp but enough features to keep you occupied.

Best sports simulation game on the market year in and year out. The game keeps cutting to black on the iPad Pro though. I am jealous if you are playing this on the regular iPad!

Was excited to get this game but unfortunately I am unable to even play it on my iPad Pro. Buyer beware!

Absolutely incredible. I cant think of a better gaming app to spend your time on. Truly a wonderful game.

Still a great game, but there wasnt really that many new things added to it. Also in fictional mode, the game doesnt evolve to what it is like today. I wanted to start a league from 1871 all the way to 2016, but over time I realized that the new players didnt have more power like they should have in that time frame of baseball. The hitting and pitching attributes were still the same in 1931 as it was in 1871. Earlier versions evolved over time, why doesnt this one?

The developer is unable or unwilling to fix this issue.

This is the best sports sim out there. No others are even worth playing after playing this one (though the full game for the computer absolutely blows this out of the water)

When locks up you have to put in position player is playing then continue.

Crap. Crashes iPad PRO

Its been months with numerous updates and still does not work on the pro

Doesnt allow me to resign players. No contract extension option. Also no free agents ever added to the free agent list. This game is pretty bad. Its bad with the financial system enabled. Without the financial system on, this game is unplayable. Just garbage.
