    Re: MLB The Show 17 Video - Gameplay Improvements & Animations Expansion

    I'm curious if the Catcher Throwing Meter can be turned off? I'm not the biggest fan of throwing meters. I'll definitely give it a whirl, but am hopeful that if its something that I don't want to use, that I can turn it off and go back to just using the buttons.
    I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

    I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

      I also prefer to just use the buttons for throwing but I like the idea of the meter for those Catcher throws. It makes base stealing into a type of mini game sort of

              Love all the attention the ball physics got this year. IMO, this was the biggest gameplay element that needed a little TLC.

              I'm glad they put some time in to the catchers as well. It seemed in prior years that catch defensive ratings didn't mean much so hopefully that changes a bit this year. Overall, very excited for launch.

              A couple minor things though:
              -Did they fix the center field wall at Busch Stadium? It said 336' last year instead of '400

              -The walls at Busch look a little too bright. They are a deep green in reality. Not a big deal, though.

                They are moving them under the bleachers. I am in construction and actually worked on some of the renovations there.

                  As far as I know it hasn't been "confirmed" to be fixed in '17, but they were made aware last year, so I will be surprised if this isn't fixed.

                    We definitely checked the wall distances again this year...

                          Did you get a chance to look into the flag issues at Progressive Field? I think you were the one who replied to my comment about them.

                            But alas, it seems you genuinely were uncertain, so I'm just glad you got answered.
                            I mean obviously i have no time for single base hits.....do you think i am some sort of peasant?!?! lol

                            I guess theres just some baseball lingo we don't use in Chicago...??...ive always heard what you guys are discribing as "texas leaguers" as "duck snorts"...
