    Re: PS4 Discussion (MLB The Show 14)

    I see "QC" being mentioned a lot in the PS3 impressions thread.

    New to the game, so could someone elaborate on what QC is?

    Sorry for the n00b post

          I'm actually surprised how many people held on to their PS3 consoles...

            Yes--to both of these.

            Going to suck reading impressions for a freaking month waiting for this bad boy. Sigh. 33...

              The game has taken a small step back on PS3 - but I think the PS4 version will be better because it will have more processing power.

                I am really look forward to the PS4 version of the Show. I hope that we are in for let down by expecting 150% leap in time. I have expectations, but I'm a realist. I might not watch any videos when did they leek out. I want to be surprise. See everything for the first when hooking up my PS4. I want to see the intro for the first time. Is it going to be that much different from the PS3 intro? Its a lot of great questions, high hopes and anticipation for this game we love...

                  What small step is that?

                    Can someone explain this concept to me? Part of baseball is working the count and finding your pitch. If you already have a 2-2 count (for example), doesn't that simply eliminate part of the game? I understand that it speeds up the game, but you wouldn't, in NFL games, say give me a quick 2nd down and 5 to speed things up.
                    EPL - Arsenal
                    MLB - Seattle Mariners
                    NBA - Cleveland Cavaliers
                    NFL - Philadelphia Eagles
                    MLS - Seattle Sounders

                      Indeed. But it eliminates a part of the game that a LOT of baseball gamers have trouble with consistently: Getting past the early counts and into deep ones where a lot more variety starts occuring in AB's - hittable pitches in counts favoring the batter, strikeouts, and walks. In a perfect world we'd all have the batting eye of a major league hitter and be able to take pitches and work our way into hitters counts, but it just doesn't work that way for everyone.

                      It's an option that can be turned on or off, so while I personally won't be using it once I actually get serious in this game (after an adjustment period for Dynamic Difficulty), I'm glad it's in there.

                        Explanation: For the following reasons, people want the game to move faster:

                        People have less time for lengthy games
                        Allows players to get thru full seasons quicker
                        ADHD sports culture
                        People suck at taking pitches and working a count

                          Sounds like you wont be using the feature either.... It a good concept for those who like to sim seasons I suppose.

                            Game is great on the PS3. I can't wait to play it on the PS4.

                              Was there a community day where OSer's got to play the Ps4 version? has anyone played the PS4 version outside of the MLB players in Australia? Can't seem to find a hands on impression thread or post.
