For sure. The question list grows. One more week.

Re: ***Official Community Preview Questions Thread***

Franchise

Will games have staggering start times? Say you'll have games that, like on weekends, you'll have day games and then the night caps? Will there be a time reference for the games?(1PM, 4PM, 7PM or what have you)

Re: ***Official Community Preview Questions Thread***

OTHER:

Can we see who is warming up for the opposing team now? does the announcer also tell you?

Are pick offs ratings and better realism in the game?

Does the opposing coach/manager come to mound more often?

STATS:

Can you see opposing pitcher and batter stats now during the game (e.g. can you their ratings)

RTTS:

Will the PA announcer say created player names aside from Joe Random?

Re: ***Official Community Preview Questions Thread***

is zone hittting in this year or is it the same as last year timing only.

Re: ***Official Community Preview Questions Thread***

Can't remember if I asked this on not yet...
Gameplay:
During RTTS mode I know 08 improved on this and allowed us to move out RTTS player a bit to where we wanted to be before the pitch. Has this been tweaked anymore/freed up anymore?

Yeah I sure hope so.

RTTS - Is the camera used for running the bases different? I hate how when you are running the bases you can't see where the ball is so you don't know if it's caught or not so you don't know to run or not. I can't tell you how many times I messed up and was called out.

Re: ***Official Community Preview Questions Thread***

Wow! I'm sorry, I'm getting my two cents in. This was a decision that NONE of us made. I don't know what the frig you're talking about either. You want to PM, fine, but this is bullcrap posting this on the boards. You're on your own if you want to use the boards for this.

so NO ONE knows what happened i call CRAAAAAAAAAAP... HERE IS WHY..

Russell SCEA (3:19:34 PM): does it really matter and who said it was just one person to be honest with you I recieved many pms about your behavior and all of them wheren't from community leaders what's done is done

that refresh anyones memory?

you are all such cowards... every single one of you that had not the guts or manhood to come to me to discuss any of this... im done!!! ban me i dont care... i really dont...

Re: ***Official Community Preview Questions Thread***

Not sure if anyone mentioned this yet:

Manager Tendencies: Are they including different tendencies for CPU managers? E.G. some of them will pull a pitcher early, some will rarely pull them, etc.

Good question. Will certain managers perfer Small Ball strategy or not?

Didn't High Heat have CPU Managerial Tendency sliders for things like stealing, hit and run, bunting?

That would be cool if teams have varying strategy based on the type of manager and/or team strengths.

Ok, I'll tell you something, I didn't PM Russell or anyone about this but since you're dead set on making a scene out this I'll help you out.

Your behavior since you were announced as a community leader has been ****. Stating how your going to beat Legend mode when you got there because your pitching technique is some miracle work. Talking about how you're going to do this and that, basically you were implying that you were going to do what you wanted to do. My feelings on your posts here was that you weren't going to represent OS, you were going to represent you and since you were such a super swell guy, you'd share any info you gathered with the community. You didn't seem to care what any of the community you were representing wanted to know. You basically rubbed the communities face in the fact that they weren't a community leader and you were. Thats not what OS is man, thats not what this community is, and your actions/posts certainly didn't come across as someone I'd want representing this community. Being invited and representing this community is a privliege man, and you demonstrated anything but.

And now, instead of just biting the bullet or at the very least PM'ing people to find out what happened, you throw a temper tantrum on the forums here, acting as if you've been wronged somehow and calling people cowards.

There, you have an answer, so either get over it and move on, or stop visiting the forum. But hijacking this thread and turning it into some investigation or what have you, is ridiculous. Grow up.

Re: ***Official Community Preview Questions Thread***

Question about the custom music...is it only for hitters, or will pitchers have intro music as well? Thanks!

[dkrause1971]

Re: ***Official Community Preview Questions Thread***

This likely was mentioned before but i went back 10 pages and didn't see it- Will it be easier to hit the ball by the 3rd and 1 st basemen down the lines? Whether that will be them playing further off the line earlier in the game or just not as quick to react.

thanks

GAMEPLAY:

Will the hot/cold zones for batter be visible during the bat and can fade with pitch?

Re: ***Official Community Preview Questions Thread***

GRAPHICS

Will 09 be optimized for 1080p, or 720p like last year?
