Any additional stats..would that fall under presentation in terms of the twitch streams?

So...with this new edit player stuff.

Wonder if I can finally select individual windup and strech deliveries? Oh, one can dream!

I wonder if we can actually edit the logo color of batting gloves this year. Really disliked the fact it was tied to the leather color. Especially the 2nd Nike glove.

I'm really starting to think that this is the year that we see expansion teams in the Franchise mode. If not this year it will be in the game soon. I feel the diamond dynasty team creator will eventually end up in Franchise mode somehow soon.

Has this not been a feature that everyone has been asking about forever? That would be epic.

Not going to happen as there is no create a stadium this year.

I have a question about new features. Is it a domino effect when adding new mechanics and such in the game. If you say, put in that new effect that was shown of the rocks for the Angels. Would that mess up old code, or the hundreds of new player animations, do you have to weave that new code into the old code to make it all work and gel together? Re write the code and test it for glitches?

Im thinking this is the year we get mid season extensions. With the player personality thing, I feel like that will be tied to extensions. The more you low ball or bother a player during the season with negotiations that they are not interested in, the worse their mood is, the less likely they are to sign in the offseason.

Players on poorly playing teams will be less happy than those on contenders and less likely to sign a long term extensions. Happy players on contending teams would be the opposite, more likely to sign a long term extension. Im hoping thats the case anyways. Something myself, and I know a lot others have wanted for a long while.

I'm really looking forward to the stream today... Get to see some gameplay improvements and also hopefully get a look at some batting stances/pitching motions!

Hmm, that's an interesting take. I figured the new player personality referred to the players actions and emotions on the field.

Would be cool if it also tied it to what you are mentioning. I think the personality trait will benefit franchise mode greatly by adding a little more life to players and the team dynamic. Been hoping for a little more flash and personality from players in the game and I'm curious to hear more about this trait.

Yeah, I am hoping it is tied to what you and I both mentioned, and like you said it would make franchise feel like it has more life and would add a whole new dynamic to roster management. Would make you think twice about adding a guy like Papelbon or Puig if you already had a shaky clubhouse and make guys like David Price more coveted beyond just his abilities.

I am willing to bet that its career stats on player card.

Looks like I was right. Thank you SCEA team for finally adding this and with the other additions you brought back. I use to always be skeptical of the process you guys do, but I half to honestly half to say this is shaping up to be one of the best MLB games in a very long time. Hopefully we can eventually get player models to match up with everything else that you guys built upon this year and another great addition would be "collision detection" preventing players to run thru one another. I want you guys to know I think you guys done such an incredible job this year. Keep up the realism and these few couple things and the game would be very close to real life.

Dont want to beat a dead horse, but stadiums improve every year and are almost replica of the real ones, so if we can finally get better player models to go with that I will be very impressed.

Ok here is a question I was just wondering about.

If I start a new RTTS player. Use all of the Stubs that I have to buy training points but don't actually start the game ie: I don't go to the very first Showcase game.

When I get '16 and transfer him in, will I get to take advantage of the new starting point?

It seems like this would not work, but I was just trying to come up with a way to use the Stubs I have earned this year into next year. I already know the gear we already have does not carry over, which is a little disappointing, but I was hoping everything that I did in RTTS would not be wasted in the transfer.

Guess I will just start another career besides the carry over to enjoy the new stuff. But it does kind of stink that we put all of this work into our guys and then the new game comes out and we loose all of our gear and stuff.

I'd also like to have the option of player locking without having to use the RTTS cam. Just lock my player but let me use regular cams I have set up.

Anyways great job devs!

I agree... The player lock with a normal camera option would be awesome! I would actually use RTTS if it had that option since the outfielding camera in player lock is very hard to get used to.

That's on my design list for 16

I haven't been around much lately so just wandering if this has this been confirmed or not..?
