The same people that took the time to implement the SotS are the ones that would be faced with changing the other music, more then likely. They said that it took them pretty much the whole cycle to do it. I can't see creating more work for themselves by redoing in-between inning music, when what they spent all there time on gives an alternative. So for people who don't like the intro and between inning music, they give the option to include your own. Even though a lot of people may not use SotS they do have the option if they don't like the default. They may address it on the next cycle but it wouldn't make much sense to have done it for 16.

I mean they already do a whole new soundtrack with each game anyway, so adding a different theme song isn't this months-long grueling process. It's a false choice to say it's either SOTS or having new theme music on the front end/in between innings. Unless they need to compose it themselves...

Assuming I get the game, I probably will try to use SOTS, but I can imagine people just wanting a change in the theme song every now and then without having to invest their own time in the downloading and assigning music to this, that, and the other.

That's not quite what I said. And a whole new soundtrack and in-game/presentation music is two different things. I'm just saying if people have that big of an issue with the them music they have the choice to change it.

I just wonder what the possibility of using SOTS in the menu is.

Like, if I upload a bunch of Red Sox stuff, if I would be able to listen to that in the menu.

I agree with what's being said above. While I'm happy for those of you who really wanted SOTS, I probably won't be using it.

Yea. you can replace the whole soundtrack with your own music in the menus if you want to.

He's not wrong though for those of us who aren't interested in SOTS.

What he's talking about could stand for a makeover.

I gave a lot feedback on this very topic. I feel it needs to be different every year. It's a minor detail but it sets the tone that nothing has changed even though a ton of new things could be in the game.

It's the same principle for why they update the fonts, menu screens, and OSD annually. It gives the illusion of change, which makes people more excited to explore the actual changes.

Say for example someone on here did all the Cubs songs and walk up music. Would there be a way for me to DL that and use it?

If you're asking for one large file that you can just load into your game with no other setup...not a chance. You'll probably be able to download the collection of songs/clips needed from someone here on OS, but it's going to be on each individual user to put them into their correct positions in the game through SOTS (a list will probably be provided along with the download of where everything goes). For one team like the Cubs like you want, that won't be too much work. But to get all of them into your own game would take some major dedication.

There is no way SCEA can facilitate the sharing of songs within the game itself - that's like holding up a sign saying "sue me".

Let me play devil's advocate here...how would it be any different then me uploading and sharing a McDonalds logo under the logo vault?

Yeah good point. Just thinking it'd be really cool to get Go Cubs Go playing and all the batters walk up music. Maybe even the right organ music.

And you will be able to do that. It's just a little more complicated than DL and play.

This...is grey.

You can't really take a McDonald's or other TM directly from say the McD's website and put it in the vault.
YOU are creating a logo that might be identical to McD's....

...and...I'd say that if any company DID complain to SCEA about a TM in the vault...it would be removed.

Indy Car Racing, years ago...lost the rights to Indianapolis Motor Speedway.....and had to remove it from the game. Guys cracked the files and found a way to create a version of IMS....upload it to fileplanet and get it in the game. IMS sued the guy....and fileplanet...they had to take it down.
It wasn't even an exact copy......in the interim he even upload a copy with no IMS signage or designation....still no good.

It's a crap shoot if companies will freak over their TM.

Yea that makes sense and I knew that. Just wanted to see if there would be any difference.
