Community Day Questions, Answers, and Impressions

Re: Post thoughts here for Community Day Hands-on Impressions

Everything sounds amazing! Still a little nervous aboutthe throwing meter. Preload locked throws? What if i press the wrong base or change my mind? LoL! Also, when will pump fake throws make it in?

Wow, really loving the stat overlays. I love the little details! Especially the up-to-date stats like after hitting a double.

I am sure the MLB players cannot change the throw direction after release.

To any of the guys in SD (re: Audio):

Start up a franchise with the Royals or Pirates and FF to mid/late season and play a game at home. We all know dynamic attendance is in and done perfectly, however one thing MVP did better than The Show was dynamic audio. If there are 2,000 people in the park, I want to be able to hear conversations going on behind me... I want to feel like I'm playing a meaningless game.

I'm wondering the same.

If you think about it though, for a fielder you have to know the situation and where you would be throwing the ball before each pitch is thrown.. so with that in mind I like it in that it will force the player to think before each pitch.

However.. I would still like a "change of heart" button

How's the passed ball wild pitch thing this year, less than before or still a few to many? Also what about the cpu comeback slider, did they keep it in or is it "hopefully" gone? Thanks.

Great feedback from our OS friends during the Community day so far. Looking forward to hearing some more details.

I also love the fact that after your first at bat, you can see the update season average the next time your player comes to the plate. Wasn't a big deal but I didn't even notice it in '08. I did notice that it wasn't there in '09 so I am glad it made it in this year.

I am also looking forward to hearing and seeing more with regards to lighting and real time broadcasting.

It's early.. and I realize it may be a bit harder to go back and read the thread at this time of morning so I'll help you out..

Opps My bad. I dont like that that the brodcasters dont even say anything about the lineup but thats ok.

All the stadium/camera/accessories editions sounds great. But I can't wait to here about the actual gameplay itself. LOL

Its not after realease. It would be when you are charging the ball. A specific example would be a ball hit to CF and the runner over-runs 2nd base....if i already pre-locked my throw to 3rd and i see the runner going back, why can't I change it to get the guy going back to 2nd? Ever heard of a backdoor throw?

Thanks guys for all the info. Can someone check out Oriole Park and see if they have fans out on the right-field flag court and along the warehouse? Also the right field scoreboard should be all digital too. Gotta represent my home stadium in the game! Thanks again.

re: Community Day Questions, Answers, and Impressions

I have a question if you guys don't mind. My biggest gripe with the game has (you can laugh now) been saving your game in progress. Two parts to it. 1. I would love to save mid game and continue my game/ franchise. Now you have to reload from scratch if you want to continue the game. I just like saving frequently for hangs and such or if I'm time limited. 2. Resuming a saved game wouldn't be as bad as it is, if it wasn't for the fact that you lose the pitch count totals. It's a been a while since I played the game so I'm probably not using the correct terminology. But when you would load a saved game, you couldn't se the pitch history totals or something. Arrrggh, sorry if I'm not getting my point out clearly, but it's there and it always irritated me. But the first option is the most important, at least for me. Thanks guys.

I don't know what version you are playing....but you can save a franchise game in any inning and resume it from that point.
I believe the pitch totals and stats are all correct also.

One thing that needs fixed is if you continue your saved game your pitchers confidence level was always reset.

That's awesome! These guys never cease to amaze me and their work is why this is the only annual must-buy for me. I agree with everyone on how cool it is that the team actually listens to what people want in the game and then puts it in there.

I saw a female fan fall out of the front row of the stands along the third base line (at Yankee Stadium I believe) and onto the field trying to get a foul ball. I laughed my head off.

Definitely hope they look into this! There were NUMEROUS times I needed to save and leave but would not for this very reason. Pitcher confidence needs to be the same as it was when you saved it. Please check this guys as I think it is very important to game play. Thanks

re: Community Day Questions, Answers, and Impressions

Regarding the classic stadiums, I know it was stated that we can use them in franchise, but can we assign them to the CPU teams? If we can, do we do it by creating profiles? Thanks, guys!
