    Re: MLB The Show 19 Gameplay Trailer

    I just don't understand "game play" anymore. They said it would be a game play trailer. I saw highlights of animations, but I didn't see game play.

    AND, I feel sorry for the state of video game baseball on social media. 2K and Madden release a trailer and it trends top 10 worldwide and top 5 USA. MLB The Show can't get in the top 20, and yet they dive deeper down the rabbit hole of entertaining social media as their form of communications.

      Did you miss the shot right before when it showed him in Phillies getup? Did you see the two different Tony Gwynn appearances? It is showing a before-after thing. Within which context? I am not certain. I'm guessing it has to do with Diamond Dynasty like where you can collect cards of players from certain seasons.

      It wasn't a "missed attention to detail," though.

        Loved the new fielding animations. The play at 2nd where Dansby runs out of the baseline, puts a tag on, then goes home for the double play looked great. Fielding tweaks were definitely shown off in this video, much needed, and looked good.

          I'm a baseball addict, so I didn't need this trailer to get pumped for baseball. I always take the day after the Super Bowl off of work, to mourn the ending of football season and to get mentally prepared for baseball lol (I do love basketball, but mostly during this period before baseball starts.)

          To be honest, if I was counting on this trailer to sell me on '19 it wouldn't have done it for me. But only because the look of the game, to me in a really short clip after watching it once, looks A LOT like '18.

          Though I feel '18 played a lot better than '17, and was much less choppy as far as frame rate...I definitely played '17 WAY more than I did '18. Listen, I love baseball and I freakin love the Show. I never play online, rarely touch DD, will play RTTS but only a little bit. So, like most in this thread it seems, I'm primarily a franchise guy. And like most in this thread have mentioned, Franchise has grown very stale. For someone like me, it's not the worst thing in the world. I primarily focus on just playing games anyways. But for everyone that dives deep into this mode, I get their frustrations for sure.

          I've been playing the Show since '06 on PS2, but the Show really grabbed/hooked me when they implemented Quick Counts and you could play an entire game so much faster than before. I will be pre-ordering '19 for sure. I often play the Show on the tube, while I have a real baseball game going on MLB.tv on my iPad sitting next to me on my couch. This won't change with '19. However, I did just want to say that even though I'm going to buy/most likely love this game, it definitely seems to be getting stale. Hopefully there are enough gameplay tweaks in '19 to make it feel fresh.

                  You sure about that?

                  Check games like red dead redemption 2, God of war, spiderman mortal kombat xl and the new 11, I can name more. The weight training they took that from 2k19 period.

                  This stuff looks honestly not quite the same but not necessarily new either, but physics for example was hyped up back in 17, I can remember them saying how the ball placement would be better, well what they do ? In this trailer they show a ball in a more zoomed in canned animation to see how close it got to the line.

                  Let's see..throwing animations that was showed off for 15 and 16 going into 17. What they do show yet another zoomed in canned animation from someone throwing from 3rd base.

                  Hmn how about let's take another adventure down memory lane to mlb 14 when they was showing off the new supposedly field mechanics back then, well what they do in this trailer so yet another zoomed in canned animation of the short stop bumbling the play.

                  I mean I know it comes off like I'm hating, I get it, but I promise you I really am not, I'm just so tired of companys claiming to be doing something for the better of a product that they swear up and down they care and love so much but yet since mlb 14 now going into mlb 19, look where this game is at.

                  I dare anyone to go back to the previous trailers for each series and tell me im lying?

                  I have been a loyal customer since this game has surfaced, technically i was there when it was 989 studios and buying them then. So yeah i get a little......... upset when i see almost the same stuff I've seen from the past. Trying to be pasted off to a younger generation as something totally new.

                  I dont buy let's wait to ps5 stuff, that was said since ps2, and each generation yeah it got better graphically but some core game play elements that should have been in place have not and dont seem to be coming back. Super mega baseball 2 has true baseball core elements and is an extremely fun game. You put them elements into the show, NOW YOU TALKING BASEBALL.

                  You think I'm going in on them now,? Nah not yet I'm saving that specifically for so called franchise stream on twitch.

                  Smh..so ashamed they use to be better than this.

                    Ah you know me Country, i was an AVID show man, but its ground me down so bad now i have no interest in the game and doubt ill ever buy it again.

                    Its a cookie cutter release with a few tweaks thats now mainly catering to making the $$$ from DD, and i get that, business reasons etc...

                    ...but its such a shame, SCEA has gone from being one of the most innovative developers out there to just chasing the quick buck and letting the game go completely stale.

                    Sure it'll still be a good game, but the lack of competition in this market has killed this game.

                      Looks good. Looking forward to the breakdown of what they've added this year.

                      They showed the two versions of Gwynn which didn't strike me for anything, but then they showed two versions of McCutchen and I started thinking, are they going to let us alter hair/facial hair on real players this year?

                        I said "I guess you" because you were asking who was going to tell them after you already told them.

                          I have played sparingly in Oakland in '18, I guess I didn't remember it.

                            I think you misunderstood. I mean like how modern McCutchen doesn’t have his dreads but Throwback does. Last year Throwback McCuthcen didn’t have dreads. He looked exactly the same as modern.

                              I guess I am in the minority here because I think the game looks gorgeous on my 4K TV.

                              This "Gameplay" trailer was pretty much exactly what I expected it to be. Crappy overlay music with very fast moving close up shots of gameplay. If you watch lasts years "Gameplay" trailer and the one before that and the one before that they all pretty are similar. And I don't mean that in a negative way. These gameplay trailers use old footage compared to what the released version will have. So as far as player jerseys and stadiums a lot can change when you get the game.

                              For me the only real disappointments I had from what I saw are small things like the umpires still not using the newer jerseys. Or the stadiums still showing teams logos on the LED ribbon boards instead of stats. Or yes I'll say it still no rosin bag on the pitchers mound in real time lol

                              As far as the positive not a whole lot there either. But as I first saw in the Alpha 19 I like the much improved more realistic looking "Dusk to Night" skies. I like that the front numbers on jerseys are finally much higher and in the right spot. Hopefully this will be the case for all teams and not just a select few. Phillies Red looks much better. And I like that use of the color filter with Willie Mays at the end of that trailer. I asked years ago for an option to use a color filter to make the games presentation look from an older era so I hope this is a new feature in the game and not just to show off a Willie Mays catch in this trailer. I have a feeling it's just for the trailer though

                              And some of the highlights of the upcoming twitch streams has me excited like for example it sounds like once again AI for defense has maybe greatly improved. And someone new joining the broadcast team. Unlike the last few years it does not say "Joining the Booth" which leads me to believe it could be either for a sideline reporter or a studio person perhaps Lauren shehadi or heidi Whatley? I think it's time MLB The Show had a female TV personality. After counting the Asterix It may very well be heidi Whatley


                              Only other thing I can say is if this "Gameplay" trailer that was released today was footage from Playstation 5 then hell yes I would be highly disappointed but it's not!!!

                              Really can not wait for next weeks twitch streams.

                                The trailer didn’t do anything for me. I liked the stream schedule release more since that has some more info.
