    List of MLB The Show Animations That Need To Be Replaced With New Ones.

    This is NOT for the detriment of the game, just a heads-up if you will so that these can be taken care of so the game would not feel old.

    Now, lets list animations that have been in the game for a few years. And hopefully we can get them replaced or updated soon!

    I’ll start with the most obvios one:

    1. The bullpen pitcher that comes in and drops the glove.

    2. When you win the WS please don’t have a bench guy pick up the trophy.

    3. When you loose a game in the regular season, every time the game cuts to my dugout the manager has both hands on his head and then players sitting around looking like they just lost the WS... this scene works fine for playoffs or a close game thriller but for regular season game just get me the manager picking up and heading down the tunnel.

    4. And lastly for me, the starting pitcher talking to the catcher and then calling back the catcher when he walks away.

    This one is the most annoying one to me. Get rid of it, or at least make the usage frequency lower.

      Pitchers taking off cap and wiping brow with forearm. Sometimes even after the first batter!

      Headfirst slides into second and third - mix in some regular slides like a hook slide it stand up slide.

      Agree on losing dugout reactions..need to be toned down.

        baseball is played in the summer when it's usually pretty hot out so I don't have a problem with that animation

          I was gonna say I have seen countless times where a pitcher does this in inning one in real life

            Every single pitching animation. All of them are pretty bad once the ball is being released, front side drops horribly.

                  A pitcher warming up in the bullpen is still using the default pitching motion animation from MLB 06 The Show.
                  Best case scenario- Give a pitcher warming up his actual pitching motion.
                  At a minimum- Update the "default" animation. It seems small, but its the immersion factor i'm considering here.

                  Second one would be the animation that plays way too frequently after giving up a home run. The pitcher walks towards the catcher and receives the ball in a scoop about thigh high. The ball just sort of ends up in the glove in sort of a cringy way, imo.

                  Lastly- I think most of the swing follow-through's could use some brushing up- particularly on foul balls. It's been some time since those were last overhauled and many are showing some age.

                  Nothing too major, but perhaps some polish on the dated animations would keep things fresh and add much more to the immersion! Great thread idea btw.

                    In general I don't either, but it also happens in April when the temp is 55 degrees and he does it after the first batter. LOL. I am nt saying remove it...just show it less often and maybe not in the first inning. My preference.

                      How about updating or changing the animation when the pitcher steps off the rubber? He does that hand motion every time...

                        Especially after getting rocked, barely surviving the inning.

                          Infielders catching line drives the same way they catch ground balls

                            I feel you, the problem with Pro Yakyuu is that the graphics are way too 2Kish for my taste... now imagine the animations and flow of everything of Pro Yakyuu and the show graphics? Combined...
