Re: Three Keys: MLB The Show 15

I'm one who does want a new pbp guy. We need someone who when they record the lines, you can't hardly tell its a video game. We need a ton of more excitement on things like homers. Good examples of what I mean are 2k when Jon Miller was doing pbp, High Heat with dave O'brian, and the mlb slugfest series.

I hope they scan faces like the other sports titles.

The screenshot in the article looks nothing like Adam Jones. And Yoenis Cepedes has NEVER looked anything like himself.

Wow!!! You couldn't be more right about Jones.

1.) Commentary
2.) More equipment options (actual licensed brands would be great)
3.) Commentary

Take a page out of 2K's playbook and offer classic teams and players. 27 Yanks, 75 Reds, Mays, Aaron etc.

They scan faces during spring training each year.

1. Replace Lyons
2. Improve the UI
3. Increase two-strike balls

"They scan faces during spring training each year."

Oh ok. Well maybe they only scan a few players like FIFA. Because Cespedes, for example, I'm certain is NOT scanned.

This looks like 2 different people:

Some guys don't get scanned, cause they either refuse to do it or they aren't at the facility when SCEA does the scan. Cespedes, and Manny Machado(a few others) didn't get scanned so SCEA art team tried their best to recreate players without scans themselves.

I can only speak for myself as what I mention below may seem trivial...the game is great, would appreciate the following:

Options:
- bring back the region fielding option (the big shadow)
- allow the blue fielding cursor to be turned off
- allow the base running diamond indicator to be turned off
- allow a separate pitch speed slider for hum and cpu
- implement a "call off" button when fielding fly balls
- allow us to be able to move around / change the size of the scorebug
- allow us to choose to toggle on/off controller vibration (batting, fielding, pitching, pressure situations, broken bat, etc...)
- allow us to adjust the strike zone that has a calculated/global effect on how balls/strikes are called...specifically high strikes...low balls/strikes seem pretty good in my opinion
- what happened to the Low camera angle?

Graphics:
- fix the fans going through the walls behind home plate and on foul balls where the fans try to reach and grab
- fix the vendors going through the walls behind home plate
- tone down the number of times we see vendors behind home plate and people getting up and walking up/down the stairs (and when then do walk up and down the stairs, make it look a little more realistic and have them actually touch the steps realistically; currently they seem to escalate up/down them)
- take the sweat off the hats
- fix players going through other players when in close encounters
- clean up any glitchy graphics (females hairstyles in crowd, player unis (belt, other equipment), edge of the grass (during close up cutscenes)
- bring back the degrading batter's box chalk outline
- fix the way pitchers grip the ball before pitching (BTP view) where fingers look a bit more realistic holding the ball
- fix the lighting issues in applicable stadiums
- unis are fine in my opinion (making them have subtle movement would be nice)
- improve facial scans and skin textures (many of the caucasian players have a glow to them...i play as the reds (jay bruce glows a bit)
- bring the atmosphere to life a bit more (swaying trees, blowing debris (not too often))
- fix the few cutscenes where at random a player will have a skinny head (this has been there for many years)

Gameplay:
- improve the framerate (at least lock in offline at 60 fps)
- tone down the amount of balls thrown away in the stands trying to pick off a runner a first
- have a more true to like broadcast look when a homerun is hit (camera angle techniques used in real mlb)

Commentary:
- i'd rather the focus be placed on making the commentary team sound like they're actually in the same room versus a whole new crew or more lines added

Misc:
- improved load times
- it would be nice to have a way to save all highlights at the end of a game even when back from a save/resume (i'd gladly give you 100GB of space or whatever you need!!)
- globally implement (or have the option to turn on/off) the delay in the switch of the camera from the batter to the field after the batter makes contact. currently, this is only found when using a behind the pitcher camera while hitting combined with the dynamic camera option...would love to have this available for broadcast camera
- have a way for the pitcher to turn his head, but not change the camera angle ...while checking a runner (pressure sensitive?)


...just some things i can think of playing a virtual game in my head (@ work now )

If they just fixed these things previously mentioned I would be fine with the new version. I'm pretty sick of seeing weird fans and vendors tbh.

How about stadiums being up to date with championship banners etc.. because Texas Rangers didn't have one A.L. Title pennants they earned..they are not found at all in game but other ball parks had theirs..Was up with that The Show..

Franchise i do agree being able to maintain ticket, jersey, food prices would be legit and keeping up with news n more around the league. Plus also too with when your team breaks a record its known like with its Atmosphere of the stadiums should be the same way..

This from a first time player i would like to buy the next edition.

Some anti-aliasing would be nice.

If you are talking about the red banners that were along the first base side on the second level, the team removed them during the 2010 off-season. If you are talking about the flags in left center, then all I can say is that SCEA ordered all the different flags but only the Star-Spangled Banner showed up...

[geisterhome]

I feel with The Show there are like 100 minor keys rather than a few big ones. I'm sure that it'll take at least a couple of years to get the game back on track. It'll be good game untill then, but not an outstanding one.
