Not one detail about online franchise. Welp. Looks like they haven't changed it for a third straight year.

All the little things like FA logic, contacts, etc. are meant for the deep dive, not a quick video.

What a marketing way to spin most things that have been in the game previously

Game has been red hot the last few weeks with some awesome reveals but this one is a bummer. No additional budget features (ticket prices etc) or a league news page is a real let down

Nothing done to add to the immersion

All I can say is just wait for Thursday see if they were hiding something

I feel a lot of the new presentation stuff will definitely add to the immersion. Between situational stats, stadium tagging, and the MLB network broadcast stuff. But so far the franchise info has fell flat.

If the smaller details such as FA logic and trade logic are improved then I'll be somewhat satisfied.

The only thing that has my interest is player quirks. I'm still holding onto a little hope that other things have been added. One thing that they haven't talked about yet is "franchise front office" so I'm wondering what that will be.

My problem is why is none of this franchise stuff in the online franchise mode? It's basically a glorified season mode. The online franchise roster glitches are brutal too. If you send someone down to AAA their contract resets..thats how bad it is right now.

Re: MLB The Show 17 Video - Franchise Mode

Just saying the previous videos had me excited for the live streams. These two have not had that effect so far. Hoping my disappointment is turned to excitement on Thursday for Franchise Mode..

Re: MLB The Show 17 Video - Franchise Mode

Nothing mentioned about these coming to online franchise. Hope it got some love. The mode has been untouched and has had many issues since it's debut in mlb14

Do you have to keep making this same post?

Re: MLB The Show 17 Video - Franchise Mode

As much as I don't want to say it, but this is a little underwhelming. It seems Scouting/Drafting, Budget, GM Contracts, League News, Sponsorships have all remained the same. The only real addition has been ways to simulate through seasons faster. Which I understand them worrying about because other sports fans may see 162 game schedule and feel overwhelmed, which is why RTTS and DD are the most popular modes.

Was really hoping for more Front Office improvements like Ticket and Merchandise Prices, revamped Scouting/Drafting system and an improved League News to help with the immersion.

I am very happy with Player Quirks and Critical Moments though!

I just hope Player Quirks are editable if not for MLB Players but for created/drafted players. I also hope Managers and Coaches are editable. If not attributes wise hopefully appearance wise.

Critical Moments should be a lot of fun though.

Still no word on Launch Pad?

Hopefully the Deep Dive has some hidden gems.

We can set lineups and pitching rotations? Finally! What a letdown that stat tracking stayed the same and that we still don't have rotating interleague matchups is a joke.

I understand where you are coming from. You have a sport you love and the only game from that sport on the market and you just want one of the features/modes you like to work and have been waiting on iterations for it to do so like many others here.

But I think the reality of it is that the studio is a small team and has to focus on ways to grow the product and while my hat goes off to everyone for all the hours and hard work on the game. Which it takes a lot of dedication and to make something in any application or capacity of a 9-5 or a 9-5+. A small team can only do much in a cycle even if there is a huge red flashing needs love section of the game.

This is how I found out according to a statistic that I was less than 1% of the people who play the game using player lock. I wanted to create my own personal challenge and not RTTS and don't care if it has a multiple career path mode. I build my own story through my own experience of the player I chose to create and lock.

So I know we wish every time around this year to see what's changed and been removed or fixed. But who knows maybe it's time for a new baseball game to hit the market!

Re: MLB The Show 17 Video - Franchise Mode

am holding out hope for 'more' on the dev stream.

but i was hoping for scouting to actually matter this year, maybe international scouting. i wasn't expecting relocation, stadium creator, or anything like that. but i was hoping for something more than this video teases..

"45 minutes" / "10 minutes" / "5 minutes" tags are a cosmetic touch that are for new players of the show, and not exactly a feature for the existing franchise fans.

i dunno, still hoping for more. but i wont be upset i guess if it is just a fresh coat of paint on an existing mode. bummed, but wont be mad.
