MLB 14 The Show Q & A (PS4)

Re: MLB 14 The Show Q & A (PS4)

I'm sure it's probably been answered somewhere and hopefully it's not something wrong with my system or anything, but does anyone know what the deal is with some of the messed up polygons and ****? I'll get this stuff every once in a while and it's really annoying.

Dirt around home plate looks has black spots all over it before the game starts.


This is Justin Verlander in the ASG earlier in the year in my season mode.

Good idea. What stats do you look at to gauge who is best to run on, and what thresholds do you look for (like if the catchers arm is below x).

Also any tips for stealing 3rd? I have a guy who is 75 speed but maybe that's not enough because I haven't managed to steal 3rd yet.

If they are 70-75% from top I will attempt depending on game situation. Lower than that I'll challenge more often.. again depending on situation.

I haven't tried stealing 3rd yet. I'd say the best bet is to go on a pitcher who's best pitcjh is a change etc..then your odds are a bit better to get that over a fastball.

It's a bug. Nothing wrong with your system.

Yep. I've only had it when playing RTTS thankfully.
I play far more of my franchise and haven't seen it yet there.

EDIT: Actually I do remember getting in once in my franchise so... nevermind.

Ok, good. Do they plan to address the issue and fix it, or is it something we'll all just have to live with?

Yes they are looking into a fix for it. Just have to be patient. If it happens again just exit the game and go back into it and it should be fine.

I am completely lost when it comes to scouting. Completely. Is there a guide as to how it works (I don't find the onscreen tutorial detailed enough)

Will the camouflage caps and jerseys make it for the PS4 version this year? http://news.sportslogos.net/2014/05/...earing-may-26/

Probably not.

Probably not.

I just hope in future iterations we get extra uniform slots, too many uniforms still missing that team use today.

Re: MLB 14 The Show Q & A (PS4)

Has anyone seen a rain delay in franchise mode? Are they even in this year?

I was watching one of the devs stream the game before launch he said there was no rain delay's where games get postponed to another day but he did say there was a cutscene where play would be suspended during rain games. Then just continue once the scene was over.
Have my doubts its in there though.

Not sure what his 1st name was but his last name was Livingston.

Re: MLB 14 The Show Q & A (PS4)

Started my Cubs franchise last night... And I noticed I have a bunch of random staff members.

Wrong manager, wrong everything.

Do I have to play a full year before they recognize the real life manager? I'm confused. I have some guy named Kevin Smith or something running my team, no Ricky Renturia!

Ive wondered this too.

Re: MLB 14 The Show Q & A (PS4)

So maybe its different in other modes and maybe this has been talked about already on one of the hundreds of pages about this game so far but can someone tell me what the deal is with Wrigley Field?

- Full Ivy in April, yet the announcer still references an ivy-less wallin April on this game but the ivy is fully mature on the game.
- The manual scoreboard only lists the Cubs game. It doesn't even list any of the other games in the league. wtf
- In day games there are black squares that cover up sections of the OF wall. Looks stupid as ****.
- I dont know if its every stadium but for night games the lighting gets super dark in some areas on the field.

Everything else with the Cubs and Wrigley is pretty good (aside from Junior Lake's face and the Cubs coaching staff being fake people) and I hate to be one that complains but I figured this stuff should be figured out for the ps4 and/or updated at the next patch.

They probably ran out of time with the ivy stuff. Bcruise mentioned that.

Stadium lighting issues have been known for a while now and Devs are looking to fix it.

Cubs coaches and Managers are fake because they weren't part of the MLBPA, by the cut off date. Same goes for Tigers, Mariners coaches etc.............

Cubs scoreboard issue. Idk what that could be. If you're playing 30 team control you have to sim all the other games first before you play yours.

The black spots on the OF wall during day games........are you sure it isn't shadowing?

Re: MLB 14 The Show Q & A (PS4)

Can someone share some advice on the best way to get a good jump when stealing bases?

I'm playing in RTTS and my guy has a speed rating of 80 and base speed rating of 35 or so. I do manage to steal bases sometimes, but even when I do I lose points because it said I had a bad jump. What's the trick to getting a good jump?

Here's what I'm doing now: I have a one step or in some cases a two step lead. I am also holding the left stick to the left in case the pitcher throws over my guy will automatically dive back to the base. Then I watch the picture closely. As soon as he starts his move to the plate I quickly (flick) the left stick from the left (where I am already holding it) all the way to the right.

My guy takes off for 2nd and is safe a decent amount of the time, but then RTTS says my jump was bad and I net just a few points for the steal. I've also tried the same thing but with holding R1 while the picture waits to make his move so that my guy is leaning right. This doesn't matter - still results in a bad jump every time.

What do I need to do better? Thanks!
