Ohhh, okay. So it'll be kinda like what we had with user-created faces from last year's OSFM, but created by SCEA instead. I'm okay with that as long as we finally have the real life picture. It's one of the reasons I'm going to start a new Cubs franchise instead of carrying over. That and cause I killed the CPU on trades back in MLB 14 so my team had gotten way too good.

If you continue your season from 15 to 16 if your players on your roster your using in your current 15 season was official SCEA roster update guys they will get there 2016 photo and face scan if they have it, but if your 2015 current season roster is like OSFM or custom that whoever made the players didn't use the official SCEA players from there updates and made the player from scratch they will not have a photo or a scan face.

Keep in mind if the player created was a official SCEA roster updated added player he would need to be on his 2016 team in order to get the photo. Example is if Kris Bryant is from SCEA official roster update he will have a CUBS photo in your transferred season, but if u put him on any other team then its a generic and also if you did not get Kris Bryant from a official SCEA roster update it will also be generic.

Thrilled to have sots back! Not thrilled that relief pitchers still drop their gloves when entering games.

I feel bad that they unintentionally revealed the soundtrack but I guess it was bound to come out sooner rather than later..

When did that happen? What they used in the stream was music they imported. Not the soundtrack.

If they're not scanned, I'll be all over 'em.

Don't see why they wouldn't have Bryant. If I remember correctly they scanned him Spring of last year. The others make sense since they werent called up until later.

Does this mean Gary Sanchez & Greg Bird didn't get scanned ?

Curious about DYNAMIC quick shifts.....

If you recall last year the defense options were always the same when you pulled the quick menu up. Now based on the scenario in the field, the options will be more tailored to the situation. That is my interpretation of it anyway.

The devs keep emphasizing that nothing is final, so I'm hoping I'm wrong, but it looks like Adidas and New Balance didn't make the cut, which will really bum me out considering that New Balance is one of, if not the most commonly worn cleat brand in the MLB. Having said that, the new gear that we know is in the game so far looks amazing. I never thought that this franchise would have licensed sunglasses, guards, sleeves, etc. I've never seen a game franchise that continues to improve like this one does. I'm loving what I'm seeing so far. Keep up the good work SCEA!

They already announced and showed the new brands. Adidas and New Balance are not in the game. The new brands where showed in this stream.

I wonder if the defense will not automatically do this based on your hitting habits in RttS. That would be cool.

Loving that bat on ball sound!! Is it just me, or does it sound more "solid." When is the presentation stream?

[Lovesports]

Am I the only one that noticed the improvement in stats at bat? It also mentioned Braun is a 6 time all star. Could this mean that awards are progressive and actually mentioned?

Right now, they have years and years of added lines and it makes little sense to just erase all of that to switch to a new team unless you are ready for years of minimal commentary.

Baseball is probably one of the hardest games to combine commentary for every scenario that you have.

The most success we've ever seen from a commentary team was actually a fictitious team.

The biggest problem with this series commentary has been the tone of voice. The voice has been dull and not showing life like emotion on big plays. The same lines being used with a tone of voice that is engaging and showing emotion would at least add to the presentation. Then the tweaking of chemistry and added lines would be a bonus.

Its been the same general tone for so many years. I had hoped from years ago that a change would of been made and then the project of adding lines to the new commentary team could be in its further stages of development by now for the ps4 generation. But obviously this has not been the case.

I can only wish the development good luck with what they have to work with going further. But at least i do not have to get my hopes up anymore.

Work In Progress maybe?

Re: MLB The Show 16 Twitch Stream - The Little Things (Archive Available)

Regardless of projected call up dates can someone be scanned if they aren't yet part of the MLBPA?

Honest question because I don't know.

It's a good question. It's weird, some rookies come into the next version of the game having amazing faces, while others don't have a scan until year after. I like going back in older versions of the game and seeing how the faces vary from year to year for younger players. Guys who don't have portraits, aka guys who weren't in Spring Training, 99% of the time have generic faces. Interesting to know how exactly that works. Ultimately depends on if they want to have their face scanned, though.
