SCEA Created Rookies

[ajblithe20]

I'm not sure how SCEA goes about creating the players they add into the game in their weekly roster updates, but it's disappointing how poorly the players look. Almost every player that gets added in has a very generic face, and most pitchers have that same generic Pitching Style (Gen 7 I believe). Many of the players also have names that have available audio in the game as well, but they never select the audio for these players (instead, we have to select it for them on every update). This is a huge sore spot for a game that otherwise looks pretty fantastic. I know there are some very talented people here on OS that can make player faces look very accurate, so I don't understand why that can't be done for SCEA created players. It takes some extra time, but it would make The Show look and feel more authentic this deep into the season (when there are many rookies playing for ML teams).

Does anyone here know why these players have such little effort put into them? I'm not trying to knock SCEA, because The Show is always a great game, it's just something that has bugged me for years and hasn't gotten any attention.

It's always been this way. The only difference between players added weekly (other the skin tone) is the player's nose. Idk why SCEA does this, but it is what it is.

Re: SCEA Created Rookies

Same goes for the generated rookies in Franchise mode. Odd equipment, every other player has dreads, two tone facial hair, etc.

Why the hell are all of the created additions equipped with dreads, ankle socks, no batting gloves, and multi colored hair....It is getting ridiculous...I spend more time updating them than I do playing...
