MLB 14 The Show Q & A (PS4)

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

well, my hype is now simmered down a bit. It seems as though its going to be like fifa 14 was from ps3 vs. ps4 (I owned both) and that is subtle differences at best. Oh well. I have a ps4 now, so I will buy the show this year and enjoy it...but I will really be looking forward to next year when it will be in SCEA best interest to pour more resources into the ps4 version, and let the ps3 version become second priority. A year of full development, plus the higher priority of the current gen should make for a great mlb 15. I know this years game will be good. and probably score around a 8.0 on Operation Sports, but ya, no WOW factor...like wow! stadium animations (roofs and such) or wow! new in-game cuts to other games hightlights (ala NFL 2k5) or even WOW WOW look at those graphics. not bitching, just trolling the impressions thread and this has become self evident. Still Cant wait to start my chise tho!

I have the Ps3 and a Ps4 and will buy the show 14 cause I want baseball game on my new system want to use the dual shock 4 controller ..I ve bought both madden and nba 2 k plus what ive seen from the show and its jus mind boggling that to me Nba 2k is the only one that looks new gen and even that game cut corners .. Thats why competition breeds better games for the consumer when it comes to sports games and until there is we will continue to get what we got in my opinion ..

I am starting to feel that same as you. I think we are going to have to wait for MLB 15 The Show to really see what "Next Gen" baseball can really do and really give us that WOW O MY GOD reaction.

Having said that I am still 100% sure I am still going to love MLB 14 The Show on PS4 even though it is just the first year on the system. It's been almost 9 full months since I have played MLB 13 The Show and I just can not wait to start playing the greatest baseball video game again next week

This is a funny comment because I've played every sports game on PS4 and anyone who actually believes gameplay comes first knows that FIFA is the most "next gen" sports game out there in terms of actually feeling like a brand new game while playing and not watching replays or looking at pictures..

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

Way to dark and I said this after seeing the first shots I seen of this game back in January very disappointing to say the least not to mention long load times and stuff cut out last mintue ..

Thanks for the pic!

I too am a little dissapointed at the lighting for Busch. The field lighting looks fantastic....but its almost like the light towers in the outfield are turned off and the crowd is in a movie theater lol.

Maybe SCEA developers should team up with 2k and learn how to get most out of system (SCEA had more lead time for this game)? 2 minute load times, if true, is inexplicable with such an advanced system. Cutting out features last minute, poor lighting, no retractable roofs, no numbers on backs of players, missing uniforms, blocky players, etc is frankly shocking at this stage of development. Heck, and this one is the worst of them all, SCEA still hasn't figured out how to make a guy cut off a thrown ball in flight. That's like not being able to call an audible in football. How is that possible after all these years? I love the game and am getting PS4 version but 15 needs to be a major upgrade. No more excuses...

FIFA 14 NG wowed me too. Not so much in the graphical sense, but the general feel of the game; the sense of momentum, the new animations, the improved A.I. There's no way I could go back to playing last-gen FIFA after that.

I agree with you and bayman on this one. I was highly impressed with FIFA 14 on PS4. Even the graphics were extremely good to me. If you do a direct comparison, they don't even compare on any level. I feel like they also got the look of grass just about dead on (as far as color goes).

Yes, because the first thing I'm looking at is how AI players are moving and not whether it has cloth physics. And on top of that the amazing dynamic crowd in FIFA is more immersive than any bells and whistles that NBA has.

It depends on your expectations of next-gen within the first 12 months of release. What we've seen so far is what I expected, fully featured titles with graphical upgrades that play noticeably better. If you expected a lot more or something ground-breaking, not trying or intending to be a **** about it, you were foolish. You were right to hope and wish for it, but foolish to fully expect it.

I'm not expecting that wow factor until the end of next year at the earliest. I can pick up any title today and say.. yes, this feels next-gen. I'm happy with that. It's not 1 step forward, 2 steps back like the release of last gen; it's a solid step forward. In 2-3 years, if I'm not saying WOW THIS IS WHAT NEXT-GEN IS ABOUT!, then I will be disappointed.

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

I just signed up to ask this question what is a deal breaker to me if it is true, so the Ign video of the loading time's is in the final build? I can't stand long loading times when there is no reason for it esp that long, might cancel the pre-order and wait for next year then
