Re: MLB The Show 16 Q&A Thread

NAFBUC, thanks for the reply & contributions here

Don't have the game yet, just fishing for early information. The score board & pitcher seem SO far away from the plate in fisheye/what i'm accustomed to.

"IF" you get bored (not sure how you could with game in hand) will you take a screenshot of ANY stadium before & after hitting R3 from the fisheye view?

Enjoy!!!

GW...heading out the door to work....if no one else has posted when I get home......5am, I will post. Have a good one!

Re: MLB The Show 16 Q&A Thread

The fish eye camera looks amazing. Going to need some time to settle into a new batting view after using Catcher Zoom 3 and from I read no zoom cameras this year? Of course I can just do a custom one if it comes to that. But online(DD, Conquest and BR) I will need to be able to use a preset one. So I will figure it out.

All-Star seems easier huh? Need to play it for myself at default and go from there. I like the new offspeed pitch speed slider and fast ball one as well. Excellent additions.

When you say hitting is more like 13 I hope you don't mean floaty like 13. Are you just referring to the timing window being easier?

Can't wait for your 2016 slider set!

Re: MLB The Show 16 Q&A Thread

Could we possibly get some game play impressions of the Pitcher base runner interaction.

I would like to see lead offs and pick off moves, since they said they really worked on it, I am interested to see it in action?

For me, personally, this was one of my biggest complaints with 15

Thank you

I messed around with this briefly. I got a nice variation of results. Guys dive back this year. Didn't give it enough effort to really know yet. I will mess around with pick offs more when I get home

will be hard to tell as most of these issues were with online gameplay and bunting. Would be interested to see a game with nothing but bunts through both lineups to see how it plays

For those with physical copies, how long did the install take?

Re: MLB The Show 16 Q&A Thread

I'm at this point where I have to tell myself to stop watching these videos and reading impression posts because I want to save some stuff for myself. I watch all of the SCEA Twitch videos in full detail but now I kind of want to cut myself off and experience everything for myself when I start it up Tuesday at Midnight. Gonna be extremely difficult but I think I have to do it

Actually not what I am talking about at all as I have never have, nor will I play a game online.

I am referring to the runner taking an extra lead automatically. The almost impossible task of picking the runner off at first. The Pitcher throwing the ball into the stands on almost every pick off attempt. All of which the Developers have said they have worked on for 16.

thought in a stream they stated the extra step was removed for MLB16

They did, hence the reason I would like some impressions from people who have the game on whether it works and how it works overall with gameplay. As well as seeing if the other issues I asked about have been resolved.

Re: MLB The Show 16 Q&A Thread

You didn't see a lot of injuries when simming?

It's all a matter of perspective, but the Show has nowhere near as many injuries as real life. If that's something you're interested in at least somewhat matching, I had it set at 9 for Show 15. For 16, I'll be using the injury slider at 10, no doubt.

I'm actually a bit disappointed in this as I was hoping this would be a huge improvement. It's very similar to what it was, although the AI will definitely throw over a lot more (I have my slider at 10 for pickoffs). I was trying to take one extra step, and the AI threw over 3 straight times. On the next pitch, it was a pitch out.

I hope it's not too easy to game the AI into a "free ball," but I did have Dee Gordon on base.

Being similar, what I mean is that you use a button to look, and you push a button to make a throw. A few animations, but it's the same thing from what I could tell.
