Re: First News on MLB 15 The Show Coming on December 6th - 7th

I will be happy with a few stadium updates, plus the ability to turn off HR Celebration Camera, ability to turn off the Blue Circle under fielders, and ability to see more stats when pressing select, like previous MLB the Show games

I absolutely hate the HR Celebration Camera! Why Sony took away the option to turn it off in 14 is beyond me. Even though you don't get the HR Celebration Camera a lot thank god but when it does show up I just hate it as it takes away the excitement and suspense of the Home Run. I never want to see the Home Run Celebration Camera. NEVER!

Just bring back the on/off toggle and all will be right in The Show universe.

1. Airplanes and helicopters added to the ambient soundtrack.
2. Dynamic sunlight via real-time cloud patterns.

Interesting!

Nothing was bad about it at all. But I don't want a visual aid forced on me, one of the joys of baseball and playing The Show is learning how to recognize a pitch out of the pitchers hand.

Its rewarding.

I don't need my hand held playing this game. I love how sim it really is with a clean screen, no visual aids, no guess pitch....none of it.

So like I said...I am all for it as long as I can shut it off. If not....hell no.

I can respect that.
But at the same time, I like the Hitters Eye because it helps differentiate the good from bad hitters.
When playing other games that use this dynamic, I love how a great hitter like Miggy can pick up on pitches better than others. And over the course of a season, it helps keep stats in line with real life.

Also, for people who suck at video games (like me), this gives me a bit of a boost without cheating entirely so I'm not hitting .400 with every single hitter.

I actually feel that Hitters Eye will only add realism to the game.
I'm a bit of a nerd when it comes to reading baseball biographies, and in many of them, the great hitters talk about being able to read the seams on pitches helping them determine what's being served up.

As long as you can shut this option off, I can't see the negative of adding an option like this. It can only help sales.

It amazes me how easily the defensive side of the game gets overlooked by people on here. It needs some serious work. It was never great to begin with especially the infielding but the PS4 version this year defensively might have been one of the worst they've ever done. However now with a full concentrated year to focus on this gen, it should at least be improved

ya diving can be sloppy and what makes me frustrated is on routine grounders i should not have a bang bang play at 1st with Big Papi going Billy Hamilton down the 1st base line.

I'm a diehard Phillies fan,when I played at home in Citizens Bank park when I hit a homerun as the Phillies at home there are no fireworks when you do the homerun celebration. Just the liberty bell lights up and swings,it doesn't light up that good and doesn't swing very good! I also would like to have it where you have to manage your bullpen,for example your closer or middle reliever or setup guy can't be used because they have pitched to many innings and are tired and can't pitch until they get enough rest,so they are unavailable and can't be used,it adds strategy just like in the real MLB . Does anybody know what I'm talking? I would like to see if one of your players gets hurt on the big league club,you have the option of putting him on minor league rehab assignment before he comes back to the big league club. Last but not least,bring back having to adjust ticket food prices apparel tv contracts revenue,and the ability to do game promotions like you used to be able to do, like Madden and NBA 2k franchise modes are like.and even add a the single A level to the minor leagues.

sad. but its the main reason i didnt get the game last year.

In order of how much I want them

1) Create a Ballpark. It seems like every year I am waiting for this feature to come out. Baseball in unlike any sport when it comes to the stadium, because the actual field makes a difference. I would love to be able to spend hours upon hours perfecting the perfect stadium for my team. If they do end up putting it in the game, it better be fully customizable, and not just a few outfield wall options.

2) Improved Franchise Mode. I would like for there to be a way to relocate a franchise. This could go hand in hand with the Create a Ballpark. When relocating there could be fully customizable jerseys and team name just like in Diamond Dynasty

3) More in depth RTTS. I am not asking for a NBA2k style RTTS with cut scenes every 5 seconds, but it would be nice to make the mode more personal.

4) Instant Replay.

5) Manager Argue Ability.

6) Rain delays and wind

Cannot wait for saturday

The Phillies have never had fireworks for home runs. The game got it right this year. I will say the Liberty Bell animation needs to be addressed. The bell was also not lit up entirely when not moving. The stars should also be flashing as the bell is swinging after a home run. Bell sound also did not match up when it swung.

Re: First News on MLB 15 The Show Coming on December 6th - 7th

Just saying, before any stadium creator even sets foot in this franchise they need to overhaul the stadiums they have and make them look even half-realistic for next gen. They have loads of work to do. A stadium creator is something for 17 imho.

Re: First News on MLB 15 The Show Coming on December 6th - 7th

It's not even close to NBA 2k15, in terms of graphics and presentation (probably game modes too), Not. Even. Close. In my opinion anyways. It does have the best gameplay though.

Which is why i hope to hear about improvements to graphics and presentation first.

Shortest Wishlists he said lol? They have so far to go in graphics that I wouldn't be surprised if I am not impressed until 16. That is not what I call a short wishlist for graphics alone lol.

Never mind franchise, unis, animations, etc. It's a pretty long wishlist here and a lot of people would say baseball is one of the harder sports to get right because it is so out in the open.
