MLB The Show 16 Live Stream (IGN)

Re: Ign streaming the show now

Ugh, more modes but no working weather including real life rain delays still. They are still missing what is in actual baseball.

Weather is in baseball. Rain delays, rain outs, double-headers. We should have that option if we want to follow and play what is actually happening in real baseball every year.


It's time for me to start skipping years. Yes they are the best in the business but it's been at least 12 years or more since the last baseball game had working weather on the much older systems. How do you ignore what happens in real life baseball? They are getting the little things down every year but missing the biggest ones of them all.

There is a reason why stadium roofs are open or closed. How many more years if at all will we be given that option to play with working weather either on or off? Play F1 2015 which has amazing weather features that impact the game.

Rain delays, double-headers, rain-outs, changing wind conditions all impact pitching rotations and stamina plus strategy. This is the next level for the Show!

Well if it makes any difference for details like that, 16 is a big year for setting the foundation for Show on PS4. The programming team seems up to snuff now and by 17 you will get a pretty advanced and special version of the game if you choose to wait til then. I would assume you will get some type of weather in 17 when they have all that time to devote to polish and details away from the core set.

I know it sucks but weather can be tricky and I am sure they want to get it right.

I did notice one mistake at Chase Field. Randy Johnson's retired number is missing. I know I sent SLAB that info a long time ago. Hopefully it's in the final build. Other than that everything looks pretty good.

Oh dear god you better get Unit in there. I really want to play as Randy DAMN IT! Favorite pitcher of all time got to see him get pelted versus the Twins toward his end. Pitched the whole game though!

I know it's still work in progress but 2 things that stood out were
Donaldson was wearing shades with the Dome closed
And
Manager still wearing winter jacket in Arizona

Watching this now. I seriously love this new default camera. It is gorgeous.

I'd rather have better play by play than weather effects at this point. The commentary is incredibly stale and really takes away an otherwise awesome game.

Is it just me or does it seem like everyone who wears Nike gloves are wearing the camo looking ones? I never noticed that many players wearing them in real life. Not a big deal, just an observation.

We might not get to it. Graphics changes and improvements are the last thing to go in. Hence why the last stream is the graphics one and why we aren't going into detail yet.

Dear baseball gods, please let the team successfully get the pbr implemented into the grass this year. If everything else looks so sharp, the grass will look out of place. We believe in you guys! Thanks far all y'all do!

With sounds of the show on PS4, do you have to have the USB stick continuously plugged in, or do the MP3's upload into the game so that the USB drive can be taken out?

Re: MLB The Show 16 Live Stream (IGN)

Just finished watching. My favorite takeaways:

1. The graphics are looking good. Seems like a decent upgrade from last year.
2. I saw more variety in animations, stances, etc.
3. Great looking bloop single in that Angels game.
4. Love the ability to play next game of series without going to menu.
5. Still loving quick counts and other additions which help move the game along. This is important for getting through an entire season.
6. Loving other variations...like swing types, run types, score bugs.
7. Fish eye looks good. I'll probably go with it as long as I can discern low pitches.

Nice work devs. Now get to adding full field cam as a May patch.

Pretty sure you can remove the USB after the songs have been uploaded.

Pretty sure he said second set of broadcast presentations, IE: scorebug, graphic overlays. Not second set of announcers.

The minor leagues have 1 set and MLB has 2 sets to be exact.

Wrigley looked great. AND.... They finally got the 355 and 353 numbers on the foul poles in RED instead of yellow.

And those bricks...
