Bryant also played has also played the outfield, so he he is very athletic. It's a great feature but it could use a few tweaks.

Meh. My guess is enough people were playing the same specific players out of position last year to warrant complaints and change. Just adds a strategic element, which I like. Ratings should be lowered by switching to a much harder position.

I thought Simmons batting stance was basically perfect, down to the toe tap and two hand follow through. One of the better stances this year imo.

...Ian Kinsler still needs a two handed follow through though.

I wouldn't say it was a direct result of said complaint, but yes... WIP.

Yeah i didn't mean it as in, my complaint got it in, just pointing out the parallels.

I hope WIP is the reason so many of the newcomers last year don't have a scan. Noah Syndergaard looked pretty bad, and it looked like he had a delivery from last year, so I hope the new pitching deliveries weren't added into the build showed today.

A Third Basemen should not loose that much if he is moved to Short. They field balls all the time a the same place on the field whenever the shift is on.

The best part of the stream other than the career stats was when they talked about all the griefing they fixed like quick pitching, dive tags, bunting, stealing.

The only thing I worry about is this bunt dancing:

I asked the question in chat but they didn't see it, some others were asking too.

Will there be an archive of this stream available?

The rocks in Angel Stadium just look amazing. A little disappointed that the issue with the halo in the logo atop the LF scoreboard is still present. Also it looks like the Angels' belts are still black in game. They've used red belts for the last two years now. Hopefully it's just a WIP issue and it will be fixed when the game ships.

# 70 JDiaz1 @ 02/18/16 06:50 PM

Hey Chris,

Do you have any idea if Tim Lincecum got a new delivery?

Oh! I'm sorry...I thought he had a one-handed swing last year but apparently it was two-handed (per Factzzz). I guess I'm remembering 2014 vs. last year.

EDIT: No, I was right! He does have a 1-handed swing in '15 but it should be 2-handed.

Spoiler

I will say...I do wish the team default that is available for wrist/arm bands is avaialble on more equipment like gloves, UA sleeves, all catching equipment. Atlanta, for example, has a lot of players that wear that navy blue whether home/away versus the team color 1 of red at home and blue away. But....I digress.

BTW => Great stream on gameplay (1st stream), Chris. Really, really enjoyed it.

The belt is most likely the style guide, nothing they can do about it. If the Angels ppl don't update the belts to red in the style guide then The Show can't do anything about it because they must follow the style guide.

Curious as to why Ramone wouldn't show Globe Life Park...probably because it's not finished yet. I also noticed that they don't have a lot of the alt uniforms in yet.
