Re: MLB The Show 21 Impressions Thread
Does anyone have any solutions to the problems I ran into?
Some quick impressions after one exhibition game on Series X Game Pass.
Matty V STILL calls them Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. UGH! Still no Honda center behind the freeway over CF. Ohtani's speed is still 66 which is baffling but I can edit that.
Graphics look nice. I can see a difference from the already amazing looking PS4 Pro I played on last year. Heidi Watney player model still needs work though. That face is not nearly as realistic as the players. I did see some clipping with uniforms. One time it looked like a baseball was going bonkers on an OF arm after he made a catch. Seems like there were constantly birds flying in the sky even at night
Load times to start up the game were quicker. It didn't load up the game as fast as I would have hoped but it was probably faster than 20.
I started my profile on All-Star with Dynamic difficulty for hitting and pitching but after 3 innings, I was winning 8-1 and didn't see the update or bar or anything related to any progress the entire game. I was getting XP though.
The throwing meter I used last year is gone. I only have 3 options now; meter, no feedback and off. I made an error on a simple throw to 2nd which allowed my only run of the game. What in the world?? Am I doing something wrong or did they get rid of it?
I do not like that the quick options(up on the dpad) bring up the whole side of the screen now. Same goes for when I just want to see the batters stats. Very odd and I am hoping I can change it somehow. It used to bring it up on the bottom. Way slicker and WAYYYY better.
I LOVE that every home run shows you the distance and velocity in the bottom right corner.
I noticed that on the pause screen, it shows you way more info like all the pitchers stats and what the batter has done that game. VERY COOL!
What's the reason for not having the right first or 3rd base coaches?
Announcers never said the names of the pitchers warming up in the pen. Just right or lefty. Not sure if they actually say their name this year but it's a shame if SDS hasn't added that in yet.
When the game ends, you get a rewards and progress bar now. Very cool. Didn't get any card though.
I couldn't find any options in the menus for 4K or 120FPS or anything like that. Not sure if that's a Series X only kind of thing but usually you can find that stuff within the game menus.
Forgive me if anything was in last years version and I am just forgetting.
These new menus have me all confused! I can't figure out how to view a roster to edit the lineup and stats. *EDIT* Okay it's under create at the top. I still have no idea why it's sooo much different from years past.
It takes WAYYYYY too long to load up a player to edit. Definitely a glitch.
