^it does not look like everything was optimized in that pic because the stands are dark too.

They were not playing the final build so some things probably were not finished yet.

Complete speculation on my part, but IF things in the final build are a bit off (like the lone weird flag at AT&T in the IGN vid; the corners of the stands are a bit dark; the missing lighting in Busch), hopefully those are things that the devs would fix in a post release patch.

I would be surprised if it would get fixed in a patch. It does not look like that is the type of issues they go after for a patch but you never know.

This is a pic of Pensacola, Fla, home of the Blue Wahoos (AA) Cincinnati Reds...WAIT! I've seen that sky before

That's also overlooking the sunset. No major league stadium (except Wrigley in some seasons) ever has the sun go down beyond anything that isn't the stadium backdrop. In fact, I think Target Field is the only MLB stadium whose sun goes down behind the first base side; the rest fall behind the third base side.

We face the other way when we see the sky, where the sun isn't. That's why it's not as orange on that side. You'll see blue on the other side.

It's not the orange that's the problem, anyway. It's the darkening from the orange. At some point, we gotta see the blue. Hell, look at that real Busch Stadium shot. That's what we're talking about there. Every sky (especially clear skies) really does seem to hit that blue point at some time of night.

I apologize if this has been covered, but will the crowds be "dynamic"? Like, all the screenshots I've see are with slam full ballparks. Is that how every game will be, or will some teams that don't draw as well be empty, or those teams that are out of playoff contention not be as full?

TIA!

Im not sure but I have the PS3 version of the game and I did a test season with the Rockies and after opening day, there were a lot of empty seats at the ballpark. I think the attendance is dynamic.

I sure hope those Busch Stadium pics are incomplete

The crowd in the stands there are in total darkness.

"Oh, I was trying to get my drink -- is this yours?"
"I... don't know."
"This tastes like Sprite."
"I didn't get Sprite."
"Neither did I."
"That's mine."
"Oh, sorry, dude. Here you go. When are they gonna put some lights out here?"

Quite.

Been dynamic for years.

I should also add the Sox completely changed the look of their facade behind home plate. Although given that this is a new change this year, and given the fact that it's the White Sox, I am not expected it to be updated for this year's game. But the LED ribbon in CF is LOOOONG overdue.


Old facade...


New facade...

Us Cellular in my opinion has gotten the least amount of attention over the last generation. Gigantic foul poles, the back wall in left field by the concourse not having any texture or detail at all (just a plain grey wall) beyond the stadium its just a black void. anytime u want to watch a replay of a homerun it looks like there is an abyss beyond the stadium. None working led ribbon board above the batters eye in center. Alot of stuff thats been off for years...but obviously isnt important to worry about.

What's funny is the guy who VO'ed the TS live blog last year was apparently a huge White Sox fan. You think they'd pay attention. LOL

Just a quick question if anyone has heard anything on this topic. Will the scores update on the LED BOARDS OR THE GREEN MONSTER BE ACCURATE INNING BY INNING SAY THE CARDS AND CUBS ARE PLAYING AND YOU KNOW THE BOTTOM TICKER SAYS 3-2 will that reflect on the green monster wall scores as well? Just a curious question

not 100% sure, but from what I've seen, i'm actually leaning towards yes.
