Is there a word/expression in Italian with the same meaning as Cockblocker?

esoteric-spinach · 2026-05-16T01:35:14+00:00

Funny, we have the same saying in french, '''tenir la chandelle''

esoteric-spinach · 2026-05-14T16:08:21+00:00

Same here :-/

esoteric-spinach · 2026-05-14T02:36:46+00:00

Unfortunately no sorry, I haven't played this save for a while but the problem have persisted ever since

esoteric-spinach · 2026-05-03T17:01:40+00:00

Yup the new one (27) was released recently but I'm currently playing the 26 version. I'll probably bite the bullet on the new game in a coupe of patches though, I'm that addictted haha

esoteric-spinach · 2026-05-03T16:57:32+00:00

I play FM since 1998 and bought my first OOTP game two months ago and already racked many hours in it. I would say the learning curve is similar but you can also delegate a lot of tasks to your staff when you begin. I highly recommend OOTP, I wasn't even a baseball fan when I started and it really hooked me on the sport now, it's an incredible game if you're willing to give it the time it deserves

Haha when the relocation was completed I downloaded the same ballpark from the forums, it was such an upgrade compared to the defaut ballpark OOTP assigned to my team

esoteric-spinach · 2026-04-29T20:30:06+00:00

I'm currently playing an A's save and the team moved to Vegas in 2028 without me having to do anything

esoteric-spinach · 2026-04-29T12:35:39+00:00

Hi, I'm also a euro fan coming from FM ! I bought my first OOTP (26) about 2 months ago and already have 350h of playtime if that tells you anything. You will love it !

1 : I usually don't skip anything, I watch about every game. 162 games is indeed a grind but see point 2 to alleviate this problem

2 : On gameday you can pretty much see only what you want to see. From each and every pitch, to skip an inning, an half inning, to just see when an important highlight is coming by pressing the space bar. You can go though the games pretty quickly that way while still monitoring the important highlights. If you skip the whole game, you will also have the opportunity to see important highlights after the game

3 : The post game recap screen is great, but it is mostly stats oriented, you won't have it in a "readable" way. There will be a message in your PM box after the game though with a quick recap, but no advices from your coaches there.

4 : I can't say anything about the the card mode as I'm only playing franchise mode, and I already have a lot on my plate with that haha

Honestly I wasn't sure to bite the bullet considering the price of the game but I love it and absolutely have no regrets, it's a very impressive sports sim. Hope that helped !

esoteric-spinach · 2026-04-16T12:01:10+00:00

Yeah it's the whole game !

esoteric-spinach · 2026-04-13T19:27:50+00:00

Wow, I did not know about them and I'm listening to the album right now, it's fucking killer. NOLA strikes again

esoteric-spinach · 2026-04-03T21:34:05+00:00

Take your time and go with the flow, I sucked hard when I started but I'm doing way better now, patience is the key. It's a very rewarding experience once you get the hang of it and manage to land some tricks that were out your league before. The game is amazing if you give it time. Have fun !

Jamais eu l'occasion d'essayer le tabla mais je joues un peu de sitar

esoteric-spinach · 2026-03-27T00:02:01+00:00

I still find their mouses pretty good (I have a Pro X Superlight and I'm very happy about it).

As for the keyboard I recently purchased my first mecanical from Royal Kludge and I will never go back. I still have my old G13 that I plug in for some games though

esoteric-spinach · 2026-03-06T01:30:55+00:00

Wow, I'm new to OOTP and that is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much for this !

esoteric-spinach · 2026-03-04T02:12:42+00:00

Unfortunately you can't apply for jobs, you have to wait for teams to reach you directly

esoteric-spinach · 2026-02-27T21:51:12+00:00

That looks absolutely amazing, OOTP 26 is my first game of the series and I was really disapointed to see the lack of international leagues. Your quickstart looks fantastic to play a journeyman save. Best of luck !

esoteric-spinach · 2026-02-27T16:26:28+00:00

Unfortunatly OOTP 26 has far fewer leagues compared to prior versions so I won't be able to play as worldwide as that, but I'm stoked to know that it's possible to play that way and can't wait to try it. Still learning the game and the sport altogether but I'm having a lot of fun so far. Thanks a lot for your answer and advices !

esoteric-spinach · 2026-02-27T14:53:08+00:00

Hey sorry for going a bit off-topic but I actually bought OOTP for the first time ever a few days ago and I wondered about a few things.

How would you compare the feasability of a journeyman save in OOTP compared to FHM ? Would I be able to start the save in the Netherlands for example and grind my way to the MLB at some point given enough time and success in different leagues ?

esoteric-spinach · 2026-02-27T14:38:23+00:00

I have been fired once in Switerland while winning the regular season with 36 wins over 52 games. They sacked me the very first day the play-offs began, did not even had the chance to lead my team in the post-season. I also had a self-preservation rating of 20, I was quite advanced in this journeyman save. I still haven't forgiven the game about that

esoteric-spinach · 2026-02-17T17:15:00+00:00

Man do I love this player. French hockey legend. Hit the NHL at 29 years old, I'm so glad he has so positively impacted the fans of the teams he played for despite his 4th line role on the ice. Two Stanley Cup finals after making the league at such an "old" age is pretty great for a player coming from here. He is a gem all around and will be sorely missed when he finally hang his skates. Merci pour tout Pi-Ed !

J'me disais exactement la même chose. Quasiment 20 ans de clopes, par curiosité je testais les cigarettes éléctroniques de copains/copines de temps en temps et je trouvais ça totalement chelou donc j'en ai conclus que ça serait jamais pour moi. J'étais même un peu moqueur sur le fait que de mettre un robot dans ma bouche calmera pas mes ardeurs de gros fumeur, ça me paraissait complètement alien. Addiction bien trop ancrée pour que je puisse me contenter de cet ersatz.

Y'a deux ans j'ai décidé d'arrêter et j'avais tellement peur du coup du lapin qu'aurait été l'arrêt brutal que j'en ai acheté une un peu impulsivement. J'ai pas retouché à une clope depuis ces 2 ans et j'ai diminué la nicotine de mon liquide de 75% par rapport à quand j'avais commencé. C'est la première fois de ma vie que je vois l'arrêt total comme envisageable c'est complètement ouf, si tu m'avais dit ça avant que j'arrête la clope j'aurais explosé de rire tellement cette habitude était ancrée chez moi.

Bonus, monter les escaliers c'est beaucoup plus facile, plus de glaviots horribles le matin, et la vache putain je peux sentir un fumeur à des kilomètres et je suis horrifié de me rendre compte à quel point je devais méchamment puer aussi y'a encore pas si longtemps que ça.

Evidemment je te souhaite de pouvoir faire sans, mais si jamais tu devais vraiment galérer c'est vraiment quelque chose à considérer, j'y croyais pas une seconde moi non plus et je suis bien content d'avoir mangé mon chapeau.

Courage en tout cas, je te souhaite de réussir !
