MLB The Show 18 Gameplay Trailer and More Details

I hope they got rid of the slomotions during steels or at least give us the option to turn it off. The only way I see this feature working is when the new tagging system is so good that they could zoom it in way more so it’s actually exciting to watch the play.

So ******* ****** ******* goes with the little things deep dive. 3 words, 7 letters-6 letters-7 letters.

Things like "rotating interleague schedules" doesn't fit the blanks...neither does "import player into franchise mode." Negative for "expansion relocation ...." and "rainouts doubleheaders..."

Probably isn't a franchise mode thing or a new mode/paradigm because it's grouped with little things. Any guesses? We have 10 days to figure this out...

Seventh inning stretch?

Seems like a solid guess. Would be an admirable "little thing" to add and we saw video evidence that this is in (from the trailer, I think?). Not sure why they'd bleep it out if they already mentioned it, but this seems to be the leader in the clubhouse.

Another guess I saw was "rainout double headers" but that would require doubleheaders to be split into 2 words. I've always thought of it as a single word.

Not sure if anyone mentioned this, but it still happens to me once in a while on 17 and every game prior: I reach first with a guy who has good speed/steal ratings so the CPU pitches out like 3-4 times. I’m not stealing, but every time my dude slides back into first on the pitch out. Injuries have happened this way to me.

I know its wishful thinking and I'm reaching here, but I hope with the Babe in the game, maybe thats an indication of pitcher/position players being possible, esp. with the Japanese Ruth set to make the Show come April

Very wishful thinking indeed haha. I hope so too.

Disappointed to see the Cardinals were wearing their red hats on the road. I know this doesn’t mean the blue hat isn’t in the game but they don’t seem to be the default road hat. The miss on uniforms is one of the more frustrating aspects of the game to me. Every year it seems to be some piece missing.

Still pumped for this to come out

Now that the Big Bambino makes his appearance it would have been THE opportunity for SCEA to add the old uniform style. Missed opportunity if you ask me, especially since they said they had a big focus on uniforms this year.

That's because the red hat is the default road hat as it's been that way in reality for several seasons now. That doesn't mean the navy blue hat isn't in the game. If I'm not mistaken it was in the game last year as the alternate road hat, which is what it truly is.

The focus on uniforms was on lighting and textures and adding PBR to them. There are many uniform issues that may not have been addressed. I agree with you that they should have done so but I just wanted to clarify what Ramone said because I think some may be disappointed in their interpretation of what "focusing on uniforms" really means.

The elimination of training points in RttS is interesting. Perhaps a full implementation of the 20-80 (2-8) rating scale will be more of a factor. I wonder how that would affect current RttS players...

Underwhelming...... if Correa and Springer are still gonna have 17 faces I'll be very disappointed

Completely agree.

I'm sure that the large majority of people could care less (hence why they haven't been added), but I would LOVE to see throwback baggy uniforms added.

I had a feeling Uniforms we’re going to get a lot of attention this year. Past few years have been Stadiums and Faces, only thing left is Uniforms.

But I was hoping for a complete overhaul of cloth physics. Actually baggy pants, tight sleeves, open top buttons, better collision detection between jersey and gut and belt.

Same here. It was actually quite disappointing still seeing the belt clipping through jersey fairly often in the new gameplay.
