MLB The Show Equipment Wishlist

Re: MLB The Show Equipment Wishlist

Reviving this thread because a lot of this equipment still needs to be added and I wanted to continue this conversation prior to MLB21

Thank you for doing so! Equipment in sports games is something I'm quite passionate about, to say the least.

Here's what I have so far:

• Team Color 1, 2, and 3 being options for glove parts (they currently aren't)
• Additional bat brands (Birdman, Chandler, Max, Tucci)
• A "light" pine tar option that's in between" "Yes" and "No"
• The ability to fully edit the batting helmets of MiLB players (no idea why we're not allowed to do this; it's such a random restriction)
• 44 brand hand guards
• Marucci elbow guards
• The football QB-style wristbands being worn by a number of catchers throughout the league
• Oakley sunglasses
• Additional catcher's equipment brands (Force3 Pro, Marucci, Nike)
• Easton equipment (gloves, batting gloves, etc.)

Another thing I would add is the arm sleeves that have the players number in big block letters. (not sure of the brand). And Asics cleats. Seems as if most of the Asian guys wear these. And give us a color palette as opposed to 12 set colors. And for the love of GOD, let us customize logo colors and please, please do not attach the color of the sole of a shoe to other parts of the shoe lmao Like why do they keep doing this.

Those are the Adidas sleeves. Really hoping those get added this time around.

I'd also really like to see new colors like the metallic silver or gold for all cleats.

I'll make sure to add these to the first post.

Re: MLB The Show Equipment Wishlist

• Nike catchers gear (finally?!)

• ability to have players tops unbuttoned

• ability to add or remove players undershirts

•ability to add the Nike swoosh on undershirts (why’d they take it off?)

• no. More. Color blocking . It kills so many NB shoes, the Trout gloves. Adidas batting gloves can’t be white etc. the list goes on. Just get rid of it please.

• player pants can be tucked in but not so tight. Plenty of players get theirs hemmed now to look tucked but aren’t that fallout boy fit

• so much batting gear armor needs to be added. It’s been mentioned so I won’t name all the brands but it’s bare bones rn

• team color 3 ties to the pants! So we can actually wear teams like the A’s, Angels, Astros, etc on road without having to use the too dark grey option they give us.

• better sleeves and better texture for the game so they look more realistic.

Re: MLB The Show Equipment Wishlist

• Nike undershirts with the "Swoosh" underneath the collar. I know a few other posters have mentioned this, but I didn't see it listed in the OP, so I figured I'd bring it up again.
• More All-Star brand equipment (shin guards, shooter sleeves, etc.).

I also noticed that the reference pic for "Super high socks" is now a dead link. Here's a new one, if you'd like to use it.

Re: MLB The Show Equipment Wishlist

batting armor could use a little visual upgrading. Mainly the elbow pads. They look kind of stiff and plastic on the game when in real life they're more padded. Also i don't know how many would actually use it but I guess since all the pros are doing it maybe the option to wear multiple elbow pads. Everyone else has already mentioned the need for more brands and updating of current ones.

Re: MLB The Show Equipment Wishlist

I'm all about the small things so here goes my requests...

Uniform:
-Some players wear their uniforms "baggier" than others. Example: Clayton Kershaw looks like his uniform is almost one size too big - Bryce Harper wears his jersey like its a size too small. Lets see a couple different options for that.
-When it comes to pants, for socks up, some guys have pants that are basically shorts and they are worn tighter than others - Ronald Acuna's pants are really baggy, but someone like Hunter Pence wears his pants a little more compressed.

Fielding Gloves:
Can we please get different sizes of gloves? for example, right now, its all one size - but we all know that a second baseman does not have the same size glove as a outfielder.

those are a few things that come to mind when I initially think of little things that can be changed/explored.

OMG yes!!!!! This has driven me nuts for years!!! SDS has to know that INF and OF have different size gloves!!!

These were popular during the Golden Age of Baseball.
Would love to see them in the 2021 gameScreenshot_20201007-173505_Google.jpegScreenshot_20201007-173624_Google.jpegScreenshot_20201007-173746_Google.jpegScreenshot_20201007-173938_Google.jpegScreenshot_20201007-173845_Google.jpeg

Re: MLB The Show Equipment Wishlist

In addition to having Team Color options which I mentioned earlier, another glove request would be the ability to have separate gloves for guys who play first base in addition to other positions. For instance, when Darin Ruf played in the outfield this season, the glove he used was quite different from the one he used at first base.

Something similar would also make sense for catchers who also play first base.

Re: MLB The Show Equipment Wishlist

Reviving this thread because there still is missing modern and historical equipment. Hopefully they begin to make a dent in the long list I have in the OP.

Re: MLB The Show Equipment Wishlist

Wasn't able to pick up too much from the PS4 gameplay snippets that have been released, but it looks like MiLB players are all still wearing the same batting helmets.

Why we can't edit the batting helmets of MiLB players is beyond me. It just comes across as an insanely random restriction. Hopefully, things are different in that regard on PS5.
