MLB The Show 16 Twitch Stream - Gameplay and Animation (Archive Available)

Well, I'm not really seeing the fuss about animations--they look mostly the same aside from a new catcher-as-a-pivot-man 5-2-3 double play attempt and a leaping 4-6-3 double play animation (leaping SS).


However, some information I found cool:

-No more DIVE CHEESE! Nobody likes dive cheese (Whatever that means, lol)

-Kris Bryant has a new swing and HR animation.

-20 new ump personalities with an accuracy rating + bias = personality

-Apparently 3-6-3 double plays will be more possible with the 1B recovering to 1B after throwing the ball in some cases. In the past it seemed like the pitcher always covers the bag (and is late getting there) on the return leg as the 1B'man stands off to the side.

-The out of position animations were a nice touch...you could see Eric Hosmer flopping around like a fish in LF.

-There was an interesting out-of-ballpark cutscene that played between innings in a game at Rogers Centre. It looked like a time lapse of a harbor/marina scene in Toronto. Lots of boats.

-They teased the SOTS tile inside the Options menu. Some version of SOTS is already 100% in.

-Ramone is dropping tanks.

I kind of just jumped around, didn't have much time tonight.

I like that everything feels faster. Pitchers also breathe on the mound lol, I guess that's a good thing? Some new follow-through swings as well. No new broadcast camera, though there seems to be some new medium camera type, sort of. Also, I saw some singles top-spin in front of the outfielders.

That's kind of all I got. I'll check it out later if I have time.

Game def looks better than last year! The things that stood out to me the most were.

Rogers Centre dirt infield
Love the HR number and distance
The HR celebrations are nice also Encarnacion chicken wing, Donaldson low 5 etc.
Infielders fielding look crisper
And most of all the Stadiums look crisper also (or was that just me?)
Thing I'm hoping that's not in the game this year is the Cubs, Cub head in the OF grass.

Pumped already and can't wait to see more

The only thing I don't like about it is that you won't be able to see the speed of the runners who are on 1st and 3rd base.

Yes you will it will still show up.

Can anyone confirm, if that picture of the boats was real or game graphics? I know the shot of Wrigley was in game graphics, which looked awesome imo.

That's great. I just thought I heard someone say during the stream that the runner window that was on the screen isn't supposed to be there.

Correct but the attributes will still be there.

Will the Out Of Position Fielding work on PS3 also? It says PS4 Only.

Umpire personalities sounds cool.

Yeah it is! They didn't implemented into PS4 until this apparently. It was in PS3. I think in 2011.
There was a Wikipedia page about the umpire personalities. I had a copy of it for years. Glad to see it back.

I have to imagine the Human IK will also mean no more of that weird slide step pitching animation. It'll look more natural.

Didn't even think about foot planting as the primary application. Oh, that will just make the game so much nicer to look at.

You answered your own question.
