MLB 15 Road To The Show Wishlist

Re: MLB 15 Road To The Show Wishlist

-I want them to integrate some features that NBA 2k14 next gen has such as cutscenes, post game interviews, and GM interaction

-Also I wish they would have more colorful commentary with more variety instead of the same lines over and over

-Add more depth to Road to the Show, such as adding a backstory to your MLB created character and actually show the physical draft day like 2k.

-Add more depth to the franchise mode by adding in more off the field options, coach interviews where you get to answer as the coach/gm

All in all i feel they should incorporate some of the features NBA 2k has added while still keeping the focus on the gameplay.

Make the field a bit bigger, the outfields don't seem big enough and the bases seem kind of close as well. Either that or slow down the players a tad.

Make speed differences noticeable, David Ortiz tried a squeeze play against me the other day and almost beat it out.

More catcher animations, they shouldn't move so quickly out of their stance. When I get a hit, they shouldn't be stood up and over the plate before I'm even out of the batter's box.

More running, fielding, and hitting animations. It's hard to distinguish one player from the next. Most animations are kind of herky jerky instead of smooth.

Your player should know when to use a "lazy" fielding animations. When it's Ortiz or Billy Butler, you have more time to get your throw in in-time. But if it's Trout or Harper or Billy Hamilton, your player should know that he needs to move fast.

More equipment/accessories. Rubber bands (Livestrong), more tape variations, even necklaces would be kind of cool

Infield dirt needs an update.

In RTTS, your player's attributes decrease too much and too fast. I had a player that was built around speed, but before half the season was over, I went from a 94 speed to an 89. My player is 21, not 30. While your young, when you increase attributes, they should stay up (unless on a cold streak, as well as going up while on a hot streak).

This is kind of out there, but I'd like for the current players hair and facial hair to be editable as well as CAPs. That way you can keep the look of the game fresh for yourself (simulating aging).

Still a great game, just needs some refinement.

Just don't turn RTTS into some kind of story mode like 2K. It should be unique to YOU and YOUR career, not everybody having the same one. Multiple backstories would be kind of cool, though.

Re: MLB 15 Road To The Show Wishlist

I think the stepping on swings needs to be improved as well. It seems a bit jerky.

Player models definitely need some work. More variations, and legs should increase in size if they're going to be carrying a beer belly.

Re: MLB 15 Road To The Show Wishlist

I'd like to see some alternate cameras, especially with fielding. Would be cool if you could field from a broadcast camera. It could be POV until the ball is hit and then switch immediately to broadcast.


I'd also like to see the dynamic camera in RTTS while hitting

Re: MLB 15 Road To The Show Wishlist

There needs to be a separate MLB Network news team that cuts away during the 7th inning stretch that shows some highlights or discusses the scores and highlights of past games. I mean the ticker is right there on the bottom and Madden has shown that you can make digital characters that can talk about things and make it look realistic

Re: MLB 15 Road To The Show Wishlist

Transition animations, this would be to cut out the morphing/pivoting issues. More unique animations (on a single with a guy on 1st, you both reach the next base at the same time and do the exact same thing). Definitely unique running animations, more varied home run trots (give the choice to showboat or not).

I don't know if you can, but tattoos would be nice to make players look more unique as well. Anything to give the players varied personalities. I want to feel immersed like I am actually there, right now, every player is a lifeless robot (I know that is exactly what they are, but find a way to trick me!)

Re: MLB 15 Road To The Show Wishlist

The timing option for batting needs a tweak for the vision/swing. My player has a 92 vision, so you'd think that he could see the ball pretty dang well. But it seems like if you're just a little early, or a little late then his swing is completely off (this is with the timing slider all the way to the right because I got sick of it happening so often). Say the pitch is low and away, my vision cone is at high and inside (obviously swinging over). Wherever the pitch is, my player is looking in the complete opposite spot.

Re: MLB 15 Road To The Show Wishlist

- Multiple secondary positions (no limit)
- Expanded minors (A-, A, A+, Short season, etc)
- Editable contracts
- Editable draft classes
- More story in RTTS (Not like NBA 2K, but small details is nice)
- Rain delays

Re: MLB 15 Road To The Show Wishlist

I would like at the very least Class A Logos and maybe just a stat generation.

Classic Ballparks

Classic Seasons

End of the game when guys are raking the field, crowd is gone/emptying out.

Re: MLB 15 Road To The Show Wishlist

When creating a player in RTTS, it would be great to have "personality" categories we can choose. Something like:

1. Energetic (sprints on walks, chatty attitude on 1B after getting a hit)
2. Stoic (Shows little emotion, "respects the game")
3. Cocky (pimps home runs, beats his own chest after key hits)
4. Fiery (gets upset when making errors, riles up teammates)

At first, the traits are less exaggerated (in minors, etc) Once certain career milestones are hit, deeper traits could be unlocked or chosen, like a skill tree. For example, once reaching the majors the Energetic player could have the option to "knock heads with 1B coach after a single" or unlock signature fist pumps when hitting a double.

I think it could be built upon over time (pitchers throw inside at cocky guys after they pimp a big homer, etc).

They need to remove the man boobs for the buff players.

I'd like to take this one step further and be able to combine traits from the personalities mentioned.

Re: MLB 15 Road To The Show Wishlist

- the ability to import minor league players over to 15 so it is easier for us roster makers to get our rosters out of this isn't already an option I never received an answer.

- the ability to add past time stats, service time, and link commentary to real players if we want to fix some faces.

- more customization features(hair styles, beards, hair colors, complexions, facial features, add in nike, under armour, adidas shoes clothing etc..

- more color options for gloves, shoes etc.

- a bigger name base for announcing..

- easier interface to manage transactions.

- allow us to edit free agents without adding them to a team.

- would be neat to have international leagues, and a deeper minor league system.

- add some spice to franchise.. A news feed of some sort or highlight system..

- better artificial intelligence of managing rosters and trades in franchise.

- an improved less laggy online gameplay.

- a lot of focus on stats that are produced in franchise mode.. Some tuning to how many hitters hit .300, how many pitchers pitch under 2 era etc etc.. It would be nice to see it produce mlb like results year to year without having to tweak ratings.

Re: MLB 15 Road To The Show Wishlist

I would love MLB the Show 15 to use every bit of space that is allowed for the game to be used for as many real AAA and AA stadiums. I would also like to see as many spring training stadiums as possible. To me the detail of the stadiums (jaw dropping graphics) is the best feature of The Show.
