Re: MLB 15 The Show: What needs to change in order for you to purchase
Here is my wishlist for MLB 15 The Show
MISC
1. RETRACTABLE ROOFS, RETRACTABLE ROOFS, RETRACTABLE ROOFS. This is a must we've gone 10 years without it. (Houston, Seattle, Milwaukee, Miami, Arizona, Toronto) Make it selectable before games. It doesn't need to open/close during the game just give us the option of Open or Closed before a game or program it with weather.
2. Player editor. Would like to see home and road equipment for players. (Catcher's gear, Batting gloves, Mitts, Cleats, Arm Sleeves etc....)
3. Accessories: Earrings, Necklaces (Gold, Silver, Phiten),
-Baller bands (Some players wear these, See NBA 2K14 for examples).
- More cleat options as well as batting glove options.
-We already have long, 3/4, and above elbow Compression sleeves. I'd like to see the 3 quarter compression sleeve. It ends before it gets to the wrist. (See Dodgers Matt Kemp as example)
-More catcher gear options.
-Ability to edit the padding color and the bar colors of the catcher's mask.
-Add the soccer style shin guard and the small shin guard, Also would like the ability to have it halfway up the shin. (Some players do this)
-More bat tape color options (Add team colors instead of just white, black, red, blue, green)
-More mitt color options (Add Team colors are options)
-Ability edit more than just 1st color, 2nd color and laces color on the mitts. (Make EVERY single part of the glove editable)
-More mitt options. Trapeze, Hinge, Web, Normal etc.......
4.Give the Team trainers/Doctors Team Color shirts instead of the same red shirts grounds keepers wear.
5.Editor: More hair styles Examples below
-Short, Medium, Long braids
-Short, Medium, Long Dreads
-Bring back Fade 2 that is on the PS3 version to the PS4 version.
-Mohawk (tons of players have this Giancarlo Stanton comes to mind)
6.Bring back the grass pattern choices for Stadiums (Make it selectable before the Game starts)
7. More Spring Training Parks and Minor League Parks as well
8. If we get a Stadium Creator allow Retractable/Dome as an option to choose from
9. Expansion Teams (See All Star Baseball 2005)
10. Relocation (See Madden 25 Or Older Madden Games as well from mid 2000's)
PRESENTATION
-Add more intro fly in pictures (If you guys plan on sticking with it next year) per stadium. Instead of having just 1 picture per stadium have 2, 3, or more.
-The Pregame (where we see players on the field, or laughing with each other, or doing sprints) Show batting practice, or players giving autographs or even shots of pre game press conferences of managers/Players.
-Would like a weekly highlight show. (See NFL 2k5)
-Live look ins. EXAMPLE: During an ESPN broadcast they'll show one highlight of another game from the studio....... I would like to see you guys maybe add something like that maybe between innings. If not do something similar to NBA 2k series and between innings show upcoming match-ups (With the narrator).
-Another Pre-game presentation I would like to see is maybe show a TV crew (Baseball Tonight as example or Old NCAA Football Series from Mid 2000's When Nessler, Herbstreet, and Corso would do the pre-game team picks ) At the stadium with a stage and all. Or even from a studio.
-Player of the Game: Add more than one Reporter (it's the same guy every game) and do voices if you can.
-Security guards to stadiums
-If it is raining show a pre-game shot of the field with the Tarp on the field. (since there or no rain delays you could have Matty V. Say the rain is subsiding and it looks like we are going to get this game in folks. Stay tuned)
-Pie to the face or Water/Gatorade dumps after walk off wins.
-Places like Cincinnati Should have cars driving on the Bridge. Pittsburgh can have people walking on the Bridge.
-SF should have more people on small boats or jet skis in the cove. Also Boats should be moving in the water instead of staying static.
-In Spring Training Parks add fans to the OF Burms and have them walk and move around as well.
-If it is windy outside the Trees and Shrubs should be moving around with the wind like the flags move (See Palm trees at Dodger Stadium)
-Between innings show Ariel Shots.
-Fans catching Foul Balls and Homeruns. Also allow them to throw the homerun ball back in some cases (See Wrigley Field when Away team homers)
-Stadium Shots from the top of Stadiums (They always show Dodger Stadium on TV with shots from behind home plate, but all the way at the top of the stadium)
-Cars driving in parking lots as well as people walking (during the game)
-More generic stadium signs/Advertisements
-Fans actually filing out of the stadium (during the game) When there is a blow out. Right now the fans just disappear between innings. Would like to actually see them get up and file out like you would see on TV or if you're at a game personally.
-More interaction between players and fans. Show them throwing balls into stands or handing it to a kid. Tossing it over the dugout to fans after an inning has ended
11. Team/ Player morale
12. Ability to talk a player out of retirement.
13. Incorporate manger/Coaches Jersey numbers into the editor/circulation. Looks dumb when my manager or base coach has the same number as a player.
14. Ability to edit the fake managers/Coaches (Name, appearance etc....)
15. Ability to do a mound visit with the catcher manually
16. Have a defensive substitution done between innings rather than doing it when a guy come up to bat or the start of the next inning. (Set it up the same way you have for bringing a new pitcher in or a pinch hitter for the pitcher)
17. All Star Game uniforms need to change every year. Only if you guys decide to keep it that way. If you add individual team uniforms for the ASG then this request would be invalid. (In MLB 14 you have the 2014 All Star uniforms in every All Star game after 2014. It's static)
18. In season contract extensions
19. Full A ball rosters instead of the 15 place holders.
20. Front end: Ability to release a player without having to replace him with another from the Free Agent list.
21. Allow us to add a player to a team with out trading one for one (See MLB 2k13)
22. Pre existing injuries: Instead of a guy being placed in the minors just give us the option to have pre existing injuries on before we start a franchise. (Also See MLB 2k13)
23. More people in the dugout. Trainers, more pitchers etc....... The dugouts look too empty.
24. With the 3 man Commentary Booth, why not have a sideline type reporter as well. Fox always has Ken Rosenthal as part of the pre game, in game, and post game so why not have something similar?
25. More noises outside of the stadiums. Examples Helicopters, planes, police/ambulance sirens, trains, car horns etc.......
26. Full 90 man Spring Training Rosters
27. Spring Training Games:Players that leave the game should do sprints on the Warning Track. Would like to see this added to the Show if possible.
28. If a team wins a Pennant, or World Series add the banners to the specific stadium the following season.
29. Players that do retire allow them to become coaches (Madden does this)
30. Add Fall League Baseball. This would be a great addition and would be nice to see the future talent and what we have to look forward too.
31. In franchise mode allow create a stadiums (Owner mode) and allow us to move our team into the stadium. EXAMPLE: If I want to move the Tampa Bay Rays out of Tropicana Field allow me to build a new stadium and move them into it after the 1st or second season of franchise mode.
32. Players stats resetting when they change leagues in Franchise mode.
33. Editable draft classes
