PS4 Discussion (MLB The Show 14)

Re: PS4 Discussion (MLB The Show 14)

Another two things finally occured to me is heightened glove articulation. Gloves have two states, open and closed and there isn't really any animation going on there. I'd like to see an ball out closed glove state as well. Along with the ball being in different parts of the glove like snowcone catches.

The other thing is kinda minor, but on dropped bounced or dropped third strikes, the catcher doesn't always have to throw to 1st, sometimes they can tag the runner out if he's right there. Doesn't even seem like something that has to wait until next gen to happen, but all the same.

Re: PS4 Discussion (MLB The Show 14)

One of the things i look forward to most will be the new stadiums, and I hope part of this will include a new, unique pa announcer for each MLB ballpark. I hope MLB the Show will be the first game to go this direction for sports games. I'm also interested in the new player models, one of the most lacking features on the PS3 players were in the eyes. One of the most important artistic aspects of modeling humans are in the eyes, in my opinion. I look forward to seeing how much different players will look and act in PS4.

I do hope MLB 14 The Show will get a new sounding pa announcer. Not that the current guy is bad or anything it's just that Sony has used the same exact pa announcer for years and years now and it's time for a change

Re: PS4 Discussion (MLB The Show 14)

Here are a couple of things I would love to see on PS4:

(1) Please make MOM mode an exhibition mode again. I harp on this a lot, but I don't want to start a franchise just to play a MOM game. I love this mode and really want it back.

(2) Different broadcast overlays for different stations (like ESPN, TBS, MLB Network, local TV). I really liked how the last EA College BBall game did this with ESPN/CBS. I don't even care if it has different announcers, just the different graphical overlays would be cool.

(3) Along with others here, give me the retractable roof stadiums, more uniform options, more weather conditions, rain-outs, double headers, etc.

The potential for MLB 14: The Show is mind boggling. I can't wait to see the graphical improvement and hope it is as mind blowing as I imagine it should be. If they have had a good amount of time to work with the PS4, as they should have, the possibilities are endless. I would think the only thing holding them back would be time and their imagination.

I'm excited to get our first glimpses of this game. Wish it wasn't 6 months away.

Graphics won't improve much. At this point increasing the quality of graphics is very costly as we are at a point where polygon counts are already so high and they can only add so much. What we can hope for is even better physics and better interactions between objects and the environment. The added ram should help with more 'little things', a better crowd, better play by play, and more stuff going on behind the scenes with the A.I. and physics engine.

I would imagine that the stadiums, graphically, will be much better.

PS4 version of MLB The Show will look 10X better! Well maybe not First Gen MLB 14 The Show but by the time MLB 16 the Show comes we should be seeing a game that looks way better then any PS3 version ever has! I would be really shocked if we just see a small upgrade in graphics over the PS3 versions. Heck just compare 7th Gen MLB 13 The Show vs First Gen MLB 07 The Show on PS3 and there is a huge difference in my opinion and that's on the same system. So it's got to get way better going to a much more powerful system right?

I bet Russell already knows how much better the PS4 version will look. I think when you view both versions side by side the PS4 version will make the PS3 version look like a cartoon. Where as the PS4 version will almost look like real life.

All I can say is prepare to be blown away!

Well MLB 14 The Show PS4 release is 6 months away but our first look at the game maybe be less then 4 Months away. I am just so pumped getting my hands on a PS4 ,Madden 25 and one of the NBA games on November.15,2013 and then MLB 14 The Show on March.4,2014!

I think this too.

Even a lighting upgrade would make the current gen look way better, IMO.

Can't wait for the ps4 version.

The graphics themselves won't be much better. Having more RAM will allow them to add more effects such as better lighting and higher quality background textures that make the game look better. To illustrate my point, just look at this image.



We've reached a point of diminishing returns on polygon counts. While graphics are getting better exponentially every generation it's getting to such a high number that it will be hard and harder to tell the difference as compared to the difference between NES and SNES.

Re: PS4 Discussion (MLB The Show 14)

After seeing the head shots for NBA Live earlier today, I find it hard to believe that player models can't be improved, especially considering that EA has always been behind SECA player model wise.

Re: PS4 Discussion (MLB The Show 14)

I think the game has looked great since 09. Today's game is obviously better looking than 10 but since I pitch using broadcast cam the game would look exponentially better to me if they could fix the graphics of the crowd.

Re: PS4 Discussion (MLB The Show 14)

Here's an idea i have wished sports games added.

"Spectator Mode"- Be able to join your friends game and pick any seat in the stadium to watch.

Re: PS4 Discussion (MLB The Show 14)

THis idea is distracting me from playing my current matchup, I can't keep it to myself any longer.

Online Mode- Coop Baseball. Up to 18 players, pick your spot. Pick which user is manager. Manager chooses lineup order & regulates bullpen. Each player can pick their own position & which player on 25 or 40 man roster they'll use.
