Can we play as a DH in RTTS?
As in a everyday position if our player is on any A.L team
Also are the manager interactions the same as last year's or have they been improved?

I just need to know If offline and online franchise have the same features.

Ramone and the guys were talking about how we can only earn tickets by playing the game. They said, that tickets can be earned in ANY game mode just by playing the game. However, I think this needs a little bit of clarification.

- Are tickets only earned by completing Captain Missions while playing ANY game mode or you just play ANY game mode and get tickets no matter what the Captain Missions are?

- If the answer is the latter, it brings up a question about earning stubs. In the past, you earned stubs by playing ANY game mode. Is this still the same?

Thanks!

You earn tickets by playing the game, you can earn lots of tickets by completing captain's mission.

Do you still earn stubs as well by playing the game?

You're BOSS Ramone!

Especially thank you for answering the question regaring the European PSN store pre-order availability. Waiting for that!

It was always a fuss asking my cousin who lives in California to buy me US PSN cards. Last year I bought the Digital Deluxe Edition on the US store, but I could not use the extras beacuse I'm playing on my Hungarian account... Hopefully this year I can buy it from the Hungarian store

Incredible! Can someone please tell me what camera angle is this?

I'm loving it, you can see everything from behind the plate, it looks a little zommed out from the default catcher.

Is it new or can I find it in MLB 15? Thanks y'all!

Yea, your right I confused the question. However, I am pretty sure it was asked in another stream and he said no.

Thank You! You're the real Last Action Hero! I love that angle! Absolutely stoked for it!

Folks, isn't this going to be the best camera angle of all time or what?!

# 132 MrOldboy @ 02/24/16 04:02 AM

I'm honestly not sure I will be using the fish eye view. Typically I cannot stand to play games at such a high FOV. If it does seem to help with pitch recognition I hope I can stand it. Often the huge FOV games make me a big queasy, as do extremely narrow FOV games.

I'm also curious if there is any performance impact to fisheye since there is a lot more on screen to render. One way I can often get a few more FPS out of a PC game is to narrow the FOV a bit.

You know what's genius about it? You don't have to look at the diamond icon anymore! You can see all your hitters right there on the screen. Sorry for being so excited but I'm going nuts at how good this angle is!

I think the question they answered in the stream was about attributes updating in franchise. Which they answered no you had to manually edit them. I didn't hear them say anything about importing players in. Plus I doubt they would reveal that before next week's franchise blog and stream.

Why didn't the animation kick in to bring the fielder closer to the spot? We have to be directly on the spot or it will fly over our head?? Same thing happened earlier with the catcher. Routine pop up behind the plate, but the catcher wasn't directly on the spot and the ball lands right next to his foot. What am I missing? Is it just me? Why wasn't this addressed at all???

You know, it's funny that you mention this, because I KNEW that outfielder wasn't going to catch that ball and I suspected the catcher wouldn't either. I also knew someone was going to call it out saying it was an animation bug, but in fact it was player error.

Fielding is a much more complicated beast in this game than most people realize. You should check out my Stongest and Weakest parts of your game thread: http://www.operationsports.com/forum...your-game.html

I talk a bit about "feathering". That's not all there is to fielding but it was a big boon to me.

Can this game get any better???

# 139 goplen5 @ 02/24/16 10:06 AM

Out of curiosity, does anyone know if the Mariners' cream jerseys made it in this year? Still haven't seen anything on that.

Otherwise, this game is absolutely stunning and perfect. Props to Ramone and all the devs.

Small gripe here but it is bugging me! lol
I have been to few games at Chase field with the roof closed and the inside is not "Golden" in appearance like it is in this twitch stream. The roof looks yellow or gold when it is a lot darker or greyer, see below.
Why did they make is so yellow, I know everyone is going to say because that lights are on, but it is not how it looks.
