MLB The Show 17 Live Twitch Stream and Developer Blog Schedule Revealed

Re: MLB The Show 17 Livestream Schedule Revealed Along With New Features

I've gotta say that I'm most interested in the Franchise Mode items and a few of the graphical items.

Very interested in the Franchise Front Office (I feel like that is the beginning to an owner mode), and could actually bring back financial items like setting ticket prices, adding seats, and eventually the options to move into a new stadium and also move the team later on. I also wonder if the grass tech part will not only make it look better, but also allow wear and tear on the field that we can fix or even change grass patterns again.

I'm also curious about player quirks and the new uniform sets. Hopefully my Mariners finally get their new cream jerseys this year.

I'm not particularly interesting in setting prices etc but create-a-team or relocate would be big.

"New Head Rig" appears (after a little research) to be related to the modeling of a head/face and how it animates/moves. So facial expressions, mouth and eye movements, smiles, shouts, etc. Could also (hopefully) deal with neck/head relationship, which has needed work in the Show.

Here's a vid I found for anyone interested:

So excited for '17! Personally, I am looking forward to the 'Franchise' stream because it is my most played mode. Of course, I am talking about Online Franchise Mode. It's not a secret that it has been a skeleton of the offline version and a part of me hopes that it is finally touched up this year. Perhaps this will be the year where they do merge Offline/Online together like Madden was able to do.

I don't like to compare other sports games with one another but I really love the fact that Madden was able to do it with their mode. In the end, their 'Connected Franchise' idea basically became a lot stronger and one of its better modes. It didn't hurt to see them link it with their companion app later on.

Look, I know that the Online Franchise group received some backlash last year when we complained (call us whiners, if you want) but you cannot question our love for this game. We just want to feel the same type of love that the offline group receives. We do have friends to play Online Franchise with and there are people constantly making leagues with strangers that they invite from websites such as this one. By merging both modes, players that play with friends are happy and people who play franchise by themselves are too. This would make both franchise groups happy without feeling left out. Here's to hoping that Online Franchise receives major love this year.

Couldn't have said it better myself. Many glaring issues with the mode that's has gone untouched since MLB 14. I just wish they were able to confirm if it has at least been updated.

Hard getting amped for the game when the portion you play may be the exact same.

I'm curious if they did anything with Conquest. It was great when you first start but once you beat it there was no reason to touch it again.

Not every new feature, improvement, or change is on the schedule. Be sure to watch the vlog's and streams for all the info.

would like to see the camera in retro mode in the other modes. Ive been trying to replicate that type of camera angle in previous MLB The Shows and can never quite get it right.

Was that an Expos hat Ramone put on at the end of the video?

I don't think so, probably one of the hats you get when purchasing an upgraded package.

Totally agreed, there are times when the head/neck connection looks awkward. It would awesome to see this get some attention in 17, certainly wasn't expecting it!

Man, I see so much goodness in this feature list. Can't wait to lose a bunch of work hours to those afternoon live streams.

Re: MLB The Show 17 Livestream Schedule Revealed Along With New Features

I know it hasn't been mentioned. But I do hope to see some improvements with the "Sportscast Manager". I really love using that rather than simming games during my franchise league. I'm not expecting it, but it would be great to see.

Whatever happened to the Human IK engine? Is that still a thing or did it get scrapped? I remember that was a huge emphasis in the trailers a year or two back and then I dont know what happened.

Re: MLB The Show 17 Live Twitch Stream and Developer Blog Schedule Revealed

While we are speculating, franchise front office could be similar to Madden in which you spend money to maintain and upgrade facilities.

One thing I like about the show is you can turn gm firing off which allows you to stay with your same team. My biggest problem with FIFA - and the reason I didn't buy it this year - you can't turn off firing and as the goals progress you eventually are almost guaranteed to get fired and all your hard work to build the franchise is gone.
