Yeah i'd prefer they remove that swing completely

Same. I always make sure I change it for every player who has it before I start a franchise or anything.

I've never spent money on any type of microtransactions. I might do it this year to get Bob Gibson.

Finally won something from the streams. Too bad it's only 10 standard packs though.

Good stream, commentary looks improved. They talk everything dynamic except OSD's. I hope 1 day they start working on stats and OSD's instead of the same OSD's for the past decade drill down in the stats show some analytics. I was hoping they would show batter/pitcher analysis hoping it's back on the d pad.

Also, we are going to play and let it breathe so you guys can hear the commentary. 3 years in a row they have made this statement and 3 years and they always start yapping away, making it hard to hear.,

Still meh on Matt V but whatever, that is the reality going forward with the game.

Re: MLB The Show 18 Twitch Stream Starting Now - Presentation & Commentary

I liked just about all of the stuff in the stream like the Quick facts (I think that's what they called it), all the info on the improved weather when it comes to rain and overcast games, the dynamic crowd, Situational awareness, Line up screen at the start of the game highlighting either a certain player or the entire team, and that you can no longer put an outfielder in the infield and have him still make plays (unless he has it as one of his secondary positions).

One thing I noticed though during the batter walkups is that it switched between the players position and what hand he bats with. Is that how it's going to be in the final build or will it just show the players position every time?

I want to watch the whole thing on VoD because I was only able to hear most of the stream rather than watch it, but I liked a lot of what I heard (I'll elaborate on that stuff after I've seen the whole stream). I think they could have maybe picked out some better examples for the Plesac > DeRosa clips because the way it was it still sounded like the same structure even if they were in the same booth. Hopefully they have some actual back and forth conversation rather than the "one talks, then the other does" structure.

The one tag animation I saw looks so much better

Anyone else just hate the inning ending scene where they show the fans dancing around someone else holding up a sign (GO [team])?

that giants Dodgers game how Madbum didn't get lit up to the 5th innings.

then in the 9th they say 'this game was over before it started''' ummm no it was only 2-0 on the 5th innings then he got lit up. It should have said 'he was great but struggled in the 5th innings and that was the turning point'

This is exactly why Commentary doesn't work in sports games you can't ever dynamically implement it they would have had to of recorded about 10 separate different lines to make that sounds realistic

It's way overdone, they should have them making cheering or jeering gestures.

Close game fans Nail Biting
Down by 2 late innings fans show a look of concern
fans messing with rival fans like look at the scoreboard by pointing up
blow out of course a little dancing
