MLB 14 The Show: Hands-On Preview Video w/New PS4 Footage

The game looks great but can we get a new catcher chest protector for MLB 15? They have had this same design since MLB 08.

Not that I have any major complaints about gameplay, but this is the stupidest strawman argument I've ever seen. Nobody is asking for any of that idiotic stuff you just mentioned.





"This is baseball people, it's the same game year in and year out. See ball, hit ball, catch ball, throw ball."


Alright here you go. Here's your baseball game. It has all the elements you just described, so it should be suitable to your needs.






People who want gameplay improvements aren't asking for the game of baseball to be re-invented, they just want what's already there to keep getting better and better. Ball physics, animations, AI logic, etc. And like I said, I don't have any complaints about the gameplay. That doesn't mean it's perfect, or that if somebody DOES have a legit complaint about something gameplay related that it should be downplayed because, after all, as long as you can see ball, hit ball, catch ball, and throw ball, the gameplay doesn't need anything else.

But all the things you listed are in fact improved on eveyr year so whats the issue?

The issue is that people can't point out areas that still need improvement without other people posting idiotic responses like "heeeey cmon man, it's baseball, it's the same thing every year! See ball, hit ball, catch ball.." etc etc


Yes they improve gameplay, animations, AI every year. So why can't somebody point out aspects of those features that still need improvement?


Also if you read my post you'll notice I said I don't have any specific gameplay complaints right now. I haven't even played this year's game yet, waiting for PS4. My post was more of a general statement on the way that constructive criticism is shunned around these forums.

This is baseball people it's the same game year in and year out. I love this game and it will play the same just like I played the same game in college for 4 years. See ball, hit ball, catch ball, throw ball. Then of course you have some sick plays you make from time to time. What do y'all want? super jumps to jump way higher to rob home runs, fire on the bat to launch the ball farther, rocket shoes to go faster on gap to gap hits? Hah all these ideas sound stupid! So keep this game how it's supposed to be. An actual baseball game where the same s#*+ happens on a daily basis lol!! This game is amazing just the way it is

Check out this gameplay wishlist thread:

Ah gotcha, I do agree with you there, no game is perfect,m there are areas the show can continue to improve. I do not think this is the thread to discuss that though.

Your avatar and all of these pictures are just stunning. The avatar looks like a real life shot. I cannot wait to play at Target Field. From that video yesterday it looks like they finally got the LED sign correct on HR's. It'd be even more awesome if they also shot off fireworks from the top of the scoreboard to go along with it. I also noticed in one of the videos that the RF Out of Town scoreboard is finally back to visible. I'm just overall really excited Target Field is pretty much spot on. It will also be sweet seeing the surrounding buildings.

I tell ya what, even though I'm loving all these videos and info that's coming out, it's torture!! This game is looking more and more amazing as the days go by. I try not to look at these videos but I can't help it! I'm addicted, and the only cure is to play the game......God help me.

I can tell the top one is TS and bottom, RL, BUT one thing I will say from these photos, is I wish SCEA would make the infield dirt a solid color, not spotty. The bottom pic is a nice clean solid dark color.

Can someone explain to me how they expect it to play different? It's baseball, the show already plays an amazing, authentic, realsitic game of ball, please explain?

For me, I'm hoping for more fluid motion in general. Gloves really clasping down on the ball, a much wider variety of swings, and less awkward player movement. The game has sort of stopped feeling "alive" for me because it's been the same sort of stuff for the last few years. I still love the game, and will likely love '14, but I'm hoping it's a change of pace. If not this year, than next.
