Do you know if you could give created players long hair? I would love to give my RTTS player some bodacious locks.

Re: Community Preview Answer Discussion Thread.

Hello Boys,
I didnt wanna start another needless thread but I thought I would pass on some great news from Kolbe SCEA sent me per PM about the being able to play or watch all games ,
His response was YES you can as long as you play them in the proper order from the list of that days games
So for those of you scoring at home thats 4,860 games and who said early retirement doesnt have its perks .
Just wanna say everything Knight, Jim and the others say about the SCEA team is true and once again thank you Kolbe and The SCEA team for your genuine concern big and small .

To the 3 folks to PM'd me about the flags (and the fair amount of you in this thread asking)

Yes the flags blow in the direction of the wind
Yes they blow varying amounts based on the velocity of the wind

Re: Community Preview Answer Discussion Thread.

I have to disagree with that comment as well. I did not see that at all.

Here's the thing though: With such a short amount of time, this could have been the cause of user error on his part... or we just didn't play enough to see it. Does that make any sense?

We just don't know. There was not enough time spent with the game on anyone's part to say for a definitive answer that "so and so needs work." I know I've made my comments about needing more errors... and I stand by it... but perhaps if I played 10 more games I wouldn't feel that way.

There is just too small of a sample size to make those comments without hesitation on anyone's part.

pared we DEF DO NOT need more errors maybe by the outfielders (users) yes but not by infielders... i think the entire left side of my infieild (Cahvez and Crosby) combined for over 50 errors in my 08 season...

now we all saw that cpu outfielders made errors maybe not in games against users but it did happen due to the fact that gold gloves were given out to guys with not perfect fild%....

but again it never bothered me that outfielders never made errors...

Re: Demo talk....

The Killzone 2 demo hits PSN this week. I seriously doubt we're going to see the Show's demo drop at the same time. Just a hunch.

Killzone demo only hits the European PSN and is only available in America to those that have pre-ordered from Gamestop.

The PSN demo of Killzone 2 doesn't drop until Feb 26th.

Re: Community Preview Answer Discussion Thread.

Just wanted to clarify something about the lighting (progression):

Do the shadows move across the game while you are playing an inning if you let it sit long enough, or is it an inning by inning progression?

I woud imagine it would be inning by inning as I don't think i've seen progressive lighting done in "real time" like you're suggesting. It would be awesome if they pulled that off though.

good question

Yeah because honestly right now my hair length is similar to that of Jeff Sz-whats his name of the Cubs.

Which means this Thursday would be the perfect time for a little Show 09

I'm not sure either but, with the way the lighting was showcased in the Yankee Stadium and Citi Field videos, it seems like it's real time. Then again that coulda just been doctored for the purposes of illustrating it.

While we're talking about lighting, I asked a question earlier that did not get answered: what are the options for game times? Is it just "day" and "night" like last year, with night games starting at dusk and progressing to darkness? Or is there something like, "afternoon", "late afternoon", "dusk", and "night"?

That's a good point, about that video. But you're right, probably just rendered that way to very easily showcase the new feature.

Regarding your question, I believe we've heard that the time options are still the same. but don't quote me

There are day games and night games.
Day games I believe will be daylight the entire length. The shadows are incredible....and you can have Sunny...partly cloudy and overcast. They all look great.

The night games...I believe depending on time of year may start in the light/dusk...with the lights just coming on and then by a certain inning it is completely dark with full lighting effect from the stadium lights.
I don't know if it's real time or inning by inning though.

Oh...and I'm VERY happy to be wrong about not being able to play EVERY game on the schedule. The way I check was to pick the last game and then look at the others....and they were simmed....if you do them in order...you're good to go for them all! (thanks dorismary for relaying that info from Kolbe! )
