    I discovered a cool thing about Forbes Field

    I decided to play a game there just to see what it was like and I discovered when you do a replay you can leave the ballpark and travel around the neighborhood and/or watch the replay from a vantage point in the upper deck or outside the ballpark if you want. You can be on the hill in the outfield and watch the replay.

    My impression of Forbes is it's similar to Griffith, extreme pitcher friendly.

    That's cool. Do I have to unlock Forbes Field?

          I'll have to try that since I'm probably one of the few who actually did that as a kid. Of course Forbes had bleachers in the 60s.

            This first version of Forbes Field is not the version most people are accustomed to seeing. For some strange reason, Sony uses this version. I was hoping they would change it. This version doesn't even look like a major league field. This is the only company that uses this version! The other games, in the past never used this version. And it was used for only the first 25 or so years. The more common version is really a nice looking ballpark! Oh well, maybe next year!

                  I think I caught Ramone hinting at that in one of the dev streams. He asked if we'd like to be able to use the flycam. I wonder if that was a last minute add-in

                    No fly cam. Just a soft spot in the field and only 5 fields have it. Forbes and the other current ones mentioned.

                        Why can't they just give us fly cam to use, why is the replay camera tool so restricted. I'd love to be able to place the camera in the cheap seats and take in the view from a seat I might have sat in at a real ball game.

                          Awesome. I hope they never patch this...

                            Yeah, Russ squashed the idea every time it came up in the streams they conducted prior to release. I'm sure there's good reason not to include it. Or is there?

                            Either way, I'm really enjoying this year's game. They really hit one out of the park again!

                              It was fun looking around the old Oakland neighborhood. They should do this for all the stadiums.
