Official 2016 uniform errors and omissions

Re: Official 2016 uniform errors and omissions

Sorry if this has been addressed but will this thread actually accomplish anything? I don't mean that in a condescending way, I'm just curious if anyone from SCEA will actually read this thread and make these suggestions to the team. I know this thread is an annual thing, but I've never paid any attention to see if it has affected change.

They see it but I honestly doubt they care.......people will still buy the game regardless of how much they complain on OS

I don't think it's that they don't care. They seem to take a lot of what is said on OS onboard. I think they may be hamstrung by the MLB license and style guide along with their own slot system. The slot system is probably what needs to be changed the most for the people who care about unis to be happy.

The fact that the Mariners cream alt isn't in the style guide shows the situation they're in.

Over the years they've changed numerous things in the game due to feedback on this site which is why they even include it in their credits so they do care.

As previously mentioned, they are handcuffed for several reasons when it comes to uniform issues.

I mentioned this earlier, but they are only handcuffed if they stay with this method of style guide uber alles.

They say they can't add more uni slots because of disc resources.

So...just go the PES route and allow us to import uni templates into existing blank uniform slots. Adding 3 blank uniform slots to each team is not going to expand the disc size much at all.

Doing this would let us add uniforms of our choosing and we would use our HDD space on the console to house the resource (uni file)

Problem solved and everyone is happy now. The Show can still follow the style guide and we can add in uniforms we think should have been on the disc.

I'm thinking maybe the MLB doesn't want that.

And if they decide to not go by that method, we'llhave a game with zero MLB teams, uniforms, or players.

If they want to continue to use the MLB license, staying true to the style guide is one of the requirements.

Just wanted to add a note about the piping on the Marlins unis - it extends to the piping on the pants as well as the collar. It's all thick piping in-game (and has been since the Marlins new unis debuted in 2012), when it should all be thin.

This is another thing, since they have to follow to style guide specifically then things like piping and such should match up with the style guide. The piping on certain uniforms in game are inaccurate and not a reflection of the style guide. So here is an example of the style guide not being followed. The purpose of the style guide is to protect team branding, so you would think that certain things like piping/jersey layout would be dictated by the style guide in regards to duplicating the uniform.

It's in the style guide. Again, this has been confirmed by people outside of Sony San Diego.

It's not in the game due to the limited slots.

Having MLB players in the game has nothing to do with the style guide. That's the MLBPA license and not the MLB Properties license.

I'd bet MLB would be wiling to listen to Sony if Sony wanted to add things that are verifiably in real world games. Might take an extra dollar or two (so to speak) for this arrangement. Trying to convince us that it's the style guide or nothing is a little too absolute. Contracts can always be negotiated.

Re: Official 2016 uniform errors and omissions

Something I've always wondered, why is the style guide a big secret that we can't see? I don't get it.

Second question, anyone know if the style guide actually shows throwback jerseys? I don't mean throwbacks that are scheduled to be worn this upcoming season like Arizona and the Mets wearing their 86 jerseys, I mean teams past jerseys that they aren't currently wearing, are they in there?

I would assume the style guide is only for current jerseys because older teams would have an enormous section of the guide. This is probably why some throwbacks have errors like the green undershirt for the devil rays which is mind boggling because it couldn't have ever possibly existed.

Re: Official 2016 uniform errors and omissions

Something I have noticed from playing with the Louisville Bats in RTTS:

The sleeves are the correct color (blue) however the undershirt is black for some reason.

Re: Official 2016 uniform errors and omissions

First off, the sleeves on the jerseys are horrendous... few if any position players have those long loose sleeves...give us the option to have short tight ones like 2k did... Brewers also need their batting helmet to have the ball and glove alternate logo when wearing the dark blue alternate tops.. the hat is correct but not the helmets... Jerseys need to be revamped in 17'

Re: Official 2016 uniform errors and omissions

What is the point of this thread if the game is restricted to a style guide?? This thread is useless, I don't believe the developers are telling the whole truth about the style guide but that's just me. But if it's what they say it is then we don't need a uniform thread because their aware of the issues with the uniforms.
