Re: MLB The Show 24 Little Things Thread (Positive Little Things)

They finally added the odd biplane and helicopter into the ambient soundtrack. Was crying about that for years. Very happy about that as a headphones-with-volume-cranked guy.

Still think more could be done to make it sound (read: feel) like you’re outside. The odd gust of wind across a live mic for example. More “body” to the soundstage in general. Etc.

But point is, big thanks for the detail. Like I said, had been asking for it for years.

Love the St. Louis arch design cut into the shading of the Cardinal's outfield at Busch Stadium.

I don't know if this is new or not, but I've always been able to tell almost instantly by the outfielders reaction if a ball is going to be caught. I just ripped a ball to left field and the left fielder took a step in before realizing it was going to be over his head which resulted in a surprise double for me. I've never seen a ball misplayed like that.

For the last several years I have used the Defense cam to be set at Dynamic, but on a whim I changed it to Broadcast. I was stunned how much better it is. For the most part I now have no idea if a ball is getting down, getting caught, or getting up over heads. Camera angles seem like it would be a small thing, but right now the Broadcast Defense Cam is making a HUGE impact on my fun factor.

I've always felt like the sound of the ball off the bat didn't align with the animation of the outfielders. It would sound like a for sure extra base hit over the outfielder and then i look and he's casually strolling back and makes an easy catch. It seems like that is much improved this year.

I don't listen to commentary a ton but happened to have it on for a game on Lou Gehrig Day. They spent the first inning talking about ALS and some facts around it. Also gave the fact that Lou Gehrig was the first person in sports to have his number retired which I didn't know.

Jon Sciambi had a close friend that passed away from ALS. A topic obviously near and dear to his heart.

Man…..the lighting on the field during the course of a game can be so subtle, subtly awesome. Great job SDS.

My favorite lighting example, play a spring training game at Baseball City with rain ON. Scattered around way past the outfield, you will see clumps of sunshining down in 1 or 2 small areas, where its not raining. A couple innings later, that spot will be darkened over by clouds but somewhere else in a different spot a small area will be flooded with sunshine. Its a beautiful thing.

Something happens like that at PetCo Park. It's very cool and was a bit distracting because I kept waiting to see how it would change during the game lol. Definitely a nice touch.
