re: Community Day Questions, Answers, and Impressions

i love hearing about the new color options for accessories. something else i was thinking about though was the option to give guys curved bills or flat bills...havent heard anything, so i'm guessing it's not in...but just wanted to double check.

I dont think so but they added a lot to CAP

re: Community Day Questions, Answers, and Impressions

I have a question about the clocks at the stadiums. I read that they will be working and in real time.



So if a gam is scheduled at 7:05 pm, and in the real world, it's 3:00 PM my time when I begin the game, I assume the stadium clock will be at 7:05 or so (7:07 in Toronto, etc).


But it only takes me about 45-60 minutes to play a game (I skip most of the walkup cuts)...in this scenario, would the game clock somehow advance (3 min = 1 real time minute) and the stadium clock would be around 10:15 pm for a three hour game, or would the stadium clock use real timing, and a 7:05 PM game start ends, according to the stadium clock, at 8:15 pm or so?



Sorry if this sounds confusing.

Quick Question Guys,


Does the field show wear and tear? For instance, last year towards the end of the season, the Field at the ballpark in Arlington was looking a little crappy. I just hope the field doesnt look like opening day throughout the season.

A CD member said that Kolbe said wear and tear is over the course of a game as well as over a season

I did not get a chance to test the cpu running to see if you can override any of it.

The pitch delay has 3 settings: Slower, normal, and faster. Basically it is pretty straight forward slowing the pitch speed up for people who struggle with it and speeding it up for people who want more challenge.

Trying to make sure I understand this correctly..

So basically these three options increase, maintain or decrease the time it takes the ball to get from the release point to the plate?.. Reaction time if you want to call it that for the batter..

yes it does. Knight mentioned this in one of his posts, but with all the information scattered about as is, I couldn't direct you to it.

But yes, the field shows wear and tear as the season progresses.

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

I know, this is my favorite feature and IMO the best of all the changes. I don't like the fact this wasn't included on the fact sheet...was it supposed to be a surprise?

Nope.
The SCEA crew was very open to us talking about just about everything. There are just a couple of things that they asked us to wait on....most likely due to marketing asking for them to hold up on it.
Most seemed to be "fair game"!

Yes, they rotate.

I don't think they do(as countryboy means).
Just the teams do.
You still play the same divisions.
Sorry.

Actually...
It was the ALE and ALC both during the first season.
It remained that but changed teams for season 2.
That's where I missed it...thinking it was one...one year and then the different the next.
BOTH were actually in both years.
Sorry.

Hello fellow baseball junkies!!

I have read through the first 45 pages in this thread and have run out of time, so I will just ask; are we able to play two player Manage Only Mode in franchise games this year? My son and I love to play this way as it is a great way for him to learn strategy.

Thanks in advance and I can't wait for "MLB '10 The Show" day!!!!

Unfortunately no.
There may be hope for online play though.(maybe half-slim...but hope)
Two player on the same machine is probably a no...

No breath from what I saw....just the jackets.

re: Community Day Questions, Answers, and Impressions

I couldn't even give you a percentage answer. Not every situation came up while we were playing. It is definitely more than 50% and less than 100%. That is about as best as I can get it for you.

So the original cut scenes remain on while RTP is selected?

If so that is great!

I thought it was one or the other.
