Re: MLB 15 The Show Fact Sheet - Gameplay Reveal Scheduled For February 5th on Twitch

We can't give you the ability to change the save file names but I can have Darin add a few lines to the name of the save file. You havea very limited amount of time to send me some suggestions of what could be added within to help identify save files. The clock is ticking.....................................

THANK YOU....!!
I'll come up with something.

The name of team(s) currently assigned to a human (ie your "real" team in 30 team control)?

The win/loss record of the team with the team with the most wins?

A short description of the last action (ie roster move) executed by the player?

Just chiming in here, since this problem bothers me too.

Yeah brother...anything from anyone would help.
If anyone has an idea on how a SCEA save file can grab a piece of info to more specifically let us know which franchise save it is....I'm all ears!

I noticed when loading a franchise(continue)....if you hit the options button while highlighting a file...it gives you the names of the teams controlled....the date SAVED(ie...the current date IRL)....and the date on the game schedule in which you are at(April 10, 2015 for example)....

I was thinking maybe the start year of the franchise would help in carry over saves...but that's not very specific for multiple saves of the same year....

I'm thinking the in-game date and year would be a perfect solution. Example: "Franchise File October 2, 2017."

If that can't be done, a number system based on the file's creation date could work as well.

This would ensure people even at the extreme - the ones that always control all 30 teams - would still be able to identify which file is which.

For example, if I create a file on April 1st at 10:30 AM, that would be "Franchise File 1."

If I create another at 11:00 AM, that would be "Franchise File 2."

If I over-write "Franchise File 1" at 11:30 AM because I played a game and saved it, the file itself would always be "Franchise File 1."

Ideally, it would be nice to see which teams we were controlling ONLY in the file name but the system has to account for the fringe players who ALWAYS control all 30 ball clubs. A numbered system could work too.

Hey Ramone just a quick question. I noticed the tilted cap thing (along with necklaces) was mentioned in the whole emotion system. Will tilted caps be an editable option as well? Or just for SCEA players? Thanks!

Sorry the Q&A period is over but well do another one before the first stream.

Then 2K must be shelling out by the bucketload, as the NBA and WWE guys are all tatted up.

You'd think there would be a legal grey area there, since the players are paying to have the art tattooed on their bodies. If not, then players should get the artists to sign release forms before getting their ink.

And when SCEA makes an NBA or WWE game I'm sure this will be very relevant information...

Until then, do remember that MLB is not owned or operated by Vince McMahon or Adam Silver.

Expecting something to be in The SHow on the basis of a WWE game is akin to expecting something to be legal here in the U.S. because it is legal in Poland.

Ok, I've been continuing to think this through.

What I really want in the title of the save file is the current Franchise date, but somehow having the teams being controlled by the user in the name as well.

To add-on to my first suggestion (having the in-game date in the name), perhaps it could be followed by the teams too?

Example: "Franchise File August 25th, 2018 Baltimore Orioles, LA Dodgers"

I'm not sure how many characters you can use, but perhaps it can start that way, get followed by an ellipses (...), and have the remaining characters be listed in the file information.

Example, "Franchise File August 28th, 2018 Baltimore Orioles, LA Dodgers, San Francisco Gian...."

With the full file name expanding all the teams being controlled under the file information.

You could even use abbreviations for the teams too to conserve space (BAL = Baltimore Orioles, for example).

Anyway, this would perfect for me but I'm not sure how practical it is in your end.

I'm well aware of who owns what. It was simply a basis of comparison. I wasn't saying The Show absolutely should have tats just because NBA/WWE has them, just that there is a precedent.

Yeah some sort of representation of the actual human-controlled teams is definitely the #1 preferred option, in my humble opinion. It's a bit disenchanting to go load a Mets franchise and see "Angels, Astros..." in the filename.

And then a in-game date would help distinguish that franchise from maybe a separate Mets franchise where I'm doing a fantasy draft, as well as distinguish back-up saves and such.

That's exactly what I'm hoping for too but considering people can change their controlled team(s) at anytime, let's be hopeful the file naming system is flexible enough to accommodate that.

Re: MLB 15 The Show Fact Sheet

I was re-reading the re-reading the fact sheet and I am curious to see/hear more about the dynamic pitch breaks which allows a more realistic pitch recognition.

This, and it has nothing to do with disc space.

Just to be clear I wasn't saying it did. I was commenting in how ppl were alrdy saying, maybe they can't add this or that to the game possibly due to disk space or memory, which is laughable in both instances at this point.

H&V and Bobhead...

Unless I'm misunderstanding you.....this info is already in the save file info

-teams controlled(It only shows the team(s) you control when starting a franchise...
-Save date(actual date)
-time saved
-date in franchise(including year)

I'm having a lot of trouble trying to find something to really distinguish them apart.

Here is where I would have the most problems in this area....
Running two franchises w/30 team control(I use it exclusively)...and different teams(one N.L. and one A.L) for example......I constantly have to load the game to see which one it is...
Running two franchises now.....one being my carry over from '14 and a new one that I'll start in '15(which could be solved by adding the STARTING year to the save name)
Running franchise with different rosters(historical for example....there are so many now...that having to load and check to see if its the All-Time roster...the 1987 set...etc is such a pain...starting Year would not help in this case)

You are misunderstanding me.

If you have 30 team control, you're... controlling 30 teams no?

I'm talking about only listing the teams you are "really" controlling.

If you have a 30-team control Mets franchise, you probably have the Mets team assigned to yourself, and the other 29 teams assigned to the CPU. I'd like the save file in that case to only list "New York Mets", instead of alphabetically listing all 30 teams.
