Not greatly impressed with the stream, looked the same game as ever really with a few extras...that PBR shot however has got me intrigued.
Hoping the rest of the game has taken a step up graphically to match that, its time the game came into the next gen properly, too many PS3 type looking things for me up till now.Comment

I'm all in on showtime, and perks. I was glad to see it wasn't automatic(risk/reward) that was my only complaint when first hearing about showtime and perks. It doesn't look arcadey to me at all. Only thing that pisses me off about RTTS is they don't use the speake in the dualshock 4 for chatter while you're at bat or hearing heckling from the crowd. That is a level of immersion and presentation that would go a long way in presentation. It puts you on the field and the batters box. Hearing the ump up close and personal out of the speaker of the dualshock 4 would have been great. It's just a missed opportunity to up their game and they pass it by.Comment

It's cool that SCEA give you the option to turn off Showtime. It's not something I am interested in but appreciate that other people are. Also, not sure why people are instantly slamming the game when they mentioned several times that it is a work in progress.est 1978

Is PBR something that is always active while the game is in motion or only something we will see during cut scenes and flybys, etc?

um no offense to the great team in SD, but with two months left this should be polish time shouldn't it? I mean we can all expect this game as with fifteen to me multiple patched once put out on March 29th.
when they mentioned that this was an extremely buggy build with two months to go i shook me head.. i was like really guys... come on.... Night games not even ready to be shown right now... wow... this worries me... how many patches will this game need once released to fix all the issues that will come with it...
hopefully by the time we get to the franchise news feeds most of the issues will be fixed and ready to go"Baseball is life, without Baseball life itself ceases to exist." - Ken SpragueComment

By the way, just because you start your statement with "No offense but" doesn't mean what you are saying won't offend the team that works insane hours on this game. Try looking Ramone in the face and tell him they haven't busted their asses all year to make this the best game possible. I can guarantee you there isn't another studio in the industry that puts as much effort and passion into their jobs as these guys do.

One thing I took away from the stream was the smoothness or flow to fielding this year. I wonder if the Human IK was on display as it just seemed to not be as herky jerky from moving to a good fielding position, picking up the grounder and into the throwing animation, just seemed to be much better transitions.
When they were on the edit player screen for Edwin Encarnacion mentioning the "franchise nugget" I wonder if it had to do with more stats or advanced stats, top left corner you could see they could toggle screens so maybe its wishful thinking or maybe I'm right. I hope I'm right lolComment

I like the new equipment brand additions.
However I'm really hoping they expanded on the brands already in the game... Specifically Marucci and Mizuno, meaning they added Marucci batting gloves and Mizuno batting & fielding gloves.
Also... Really hoping we're able to notice the different between fielding glove sizes, the OF gloves should be bigger... In 15 all the gloves are the same size.Milwaukee Brewers | Green Bay Packers | North Carolina Tar Heels | Wisconsin BadgersComment

That's not uncommon in game development. The most encouraging thing we didn't see was any crashes in the software. And everything was pretty stable.
What it should do is show great transparency that these guys are willing to share this in a development stage. The game changes hourly at this point, and many bugs are probably already fixed, but have not checked into the latest build. Look at it as a sort of pot luck, that everyone has to deliver their dish by some predetermined date.

What I don't understand about the 20-80 scouting system is the following:
As we have seen in the game, players are still rated with the same 0-99 rating system. Why we need another scouting/rating system while the old one is still working especially when the old system determines your player's ability.
So, here we go, we get a 20-80 range scouting about our player, but I can still see the player's ratings.
What might be interesting is potential tho... When you view a player's ratings (0-99) you can tell how good is he NOW. But how do you know his potential, his ceiling? Yes there is a potential rating in there (0-99),which is translated into a letter: A-F.
Let's say you have a rookie who has 60 power and 60 plate discipline. Does an A potential mean that he is going to gain the same amount of point in both categories? Maybe he is going to have a high power rate in a few years, let's say 80, but will strike out a lot and stay with 60 plate discipline.
In real life prospects are not developing their skills equally so it would be nice to see players developing different aspects of their games and getting good scout reports of this with the new 20-80 system.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that you are NOT a software developer, are you?
I'm a developer, not in the game industry but in financial/banking. I have to say I do some of my best work the week before a deadline. The most time consuming part about a development cycle, at least in my experience, is the prep work: defining scope and deliverables, design work (both functional and technical), etc. The coding itself, sure it can be time consuming, but getting all the base code done is the hardest part. Going back and tweaking, fixing bugs, optimizing, and re-testing can happen very quickly sometimes. You can spend X number of weeks just putting in the framework to match the design, and in those final weeks, all of the pieces can be fit together nicely.
Don't worry about the state of the game right now. 6 weeks in a dev cycle is still a lot of time.Comment
