    Why do the fans go bananas at all times during the playoffs?

    Looks unrealistic... Anyone else agree?

    meh i dont mind that, the one i dont like is at the Turner Field where every single fan does the "Chop" the entire game.

    I really dont think fans would do the "Chop" for 2 1/2 to 3 hours straight without ever stopping.

      The fans go crazy for the visitors hits runs etc. needs to be toned down a bit

        I think part of the problem is that some places DO go bananas during the playoffs, while others don't.

        I remember Toronto in 92/93. The whole city was nuts, and it was awesome.

        I agree that a three hour chop is ridiculous, but some cities really are banana pants crazy about their team.

          I would rather have them go nuts than to have all the fans be quiet and just sitting down.

            It doesn't need to be one or the other, though. I would love to see more dynamic crowds and crowd noise. I've posted it in a few threads now, but it would be great to see the reactions to big hits that we see in real life; the initial cheer, then the roar after the ball drops or goes over the fence.

              Being a Braves fan and recently going to a Braves home game, I can confirm they, in fact, do NOT chop the whole game. Only times the chop comes out is after big plays like HR's and random times when the jumbotron calls for it.

              The Braves crowd is weird in this game. I hit a walk off HR in extra innings once, and the crowd didn't react at all until the ball landed over the fence and the cutscene of the player rounding first started playing. IRL, a walk off shot garners a wild response from the fans as soon as the ball comes off the bat. In this instance, it did not.

                They aren't crazy enough. They should be hitting each other with thunder sticks and strangling each other with those towels.

                    I've always wanted to see them throw the ball back if for the opposing team if they hit a HR

                      I hope and pray that the devs who control crowd reactions and other stuff get this correct for next year.

                      I want the crowd going nuts when a ball is hit hard off the bat via walkoff or even a double late down the line in a close ballgame.

                      Even fly balls to the warning track some fans get excited and yell. I want that next step realism from the show in the wonderful game they already make. Would take it next level imho.

                        have you been to a postseason MLB game? it's pretty crazy. I love it in the game too.

                          It's ok the way it is, I like it. Besides it seems like after the 3rd inning the crowd would tone down some.

                            It does happen at Wrigley on occasion. Just a few days ago, I saw the cutscene for the very first time in The Show. The last time I saw the fans throw it back in a video game was All Star Baseball 2004.


                            Off topic, I really hate it when Cardinal fans throw it back. That's what the bleacher bums do, not us. I don't understand how somebody would do that anyway. Give it to a kid if you don't want it, they sure will.

                              Running with the Marlins, I like it because it actually makes the game seem alive.

                              I mean, I've put together 3 very solid seasons and a WS win - and still have a half-full stadium?

                              One thing I liked about the Rays in the game is when they bring out the cowbells and sometimes there's the awesome (and slightly eerie?) sound of all those cowbells just going off. I don't know, just seems to make it more atmospheric for me and not just the same "MVP" chant or such (which is also nice)
