SCEA strives every year to add as much new material to the game as they can. A lot of it ideas and requests from the very people on OS, yet the more great things they add the more people complain about what they didn't add to the game. Be happy you're getting the greatest baseball game there is from people who care about making the product better every year and not just standing pat and adding a roster update as a new game. Some people just aren't happy unless they are getting what "they" want.

I know what kind of game we're getting and I can't wait for it to get here. It's supposed to be fun. Don't make it a headache for yourself by worrying about a player's left foot in his stance or a jersey color not being the perfect 100% shade of blue.

It's about having fun with a great product.

There's usually a spring training set, it will most likely be missing some features though.

Just think of all the prospects you could get for those two guys!

Man, 17 players rated 99 seems like a lot to me. And to think that they originally had 44!?

Since this is my first year playing The Show, I'm used to having like 3 or 4 99's.

But I 100% trust the SCEA team and have complete faith in them that they will always give us a great game no matter what they do. So I try to keep my mouth shut and let them do their thing and know that I will get an excellent baseball sim on March 5th.

So I'm sure that the majority of his 99 is derived from his hitting ability more than his fielding seeing as its only average.
Don't bars represent it just as accurately without a number attached to it ?

Numbers are a way better rating system than bars. Obviously, people don't like the ratings, which is fair. The Show has always been god-awful at rating players. But at least we don't have to deal with the bar system anymore.

Why wasn't there this much uproar last year when there was just full bars instead of numbers????? Now that there is number people complain? Are you serious?
Personally I dont care if every MLBer is a 99 as long as they play like their real life counter part is all that matters.
I can't wait for this years game. They have finally made the changes to franchise that I have yearned for, more emphasis on scouting, the draft and your farm. I always felt that's why MVP 05 was always the best cause it felt like a complete franchise mode having to care about every aspect of it. I think The Show 13 will finally topple MVP 05 in my head.

Hopefully, this bitter memory will drive the dev team to move away from exposing player ratings at all.... player skill are something we estimate from watching them play, see through performance stats, asking scouts, etc., etc., ....
