Re: MLB 11 The Show First Look

I love all the happiness over the new features...and guys realizing that the dev team at SCEA not only listens to what we(all the Show users..not just us here at O.S.) ask for, but they take it...shape it into the way they envision it to be the best for this series and make it happen.
Once again...KUDOS to all of these guys.

Re: MLB 11 The Show First Look

The pitch black look is real too life I understand what you mean, but its the way it happens. 1 inning we have twilight then next complete darkness. There is no smooth transition. The Maurer sky shot hints that we might see an improvement.

Oh I know, I've always noticed that as well. That's where I'm hoping we see the improvement as well.

Thanks for everything and all the hard work you guys put in, Russell!

That Giants score board was so accurate I thought it was a real picture. Wow! And Wilso. With his cross jesture was great.

Re: MLB 11 The Show First Look

Honestly one of the features I liked hearing about was RTTS improvements...mainly the fact there are sliders and you can create a power hitter, a speedster, batting average type..these will be great so you dont start with the same kind of player for every position...I hope there's more to this...any thing you can speak about Russel?

As well, noit sure if you can answer this yet Russel..but can we step out of the box as a batter this year? you mentioned it was close last year

Re: MLB 11 The Show First Look

Speaking of night transition, hopefully we find out tomorrow if day to night (day game going into lots of extras) and variable start times made it in

Miss communication on our part. Zone hitting is only used with the button option.

Ahhh.. Gotcha. Thanks again...!

Re: MLB 11 The Show First Look

really excited by what i have been reading. I'm really liking the analog on the pitching and throwing, but im sure i'll be sticking with the button for hitting. But don't get me wrong, i'm still gonna try out.

Also i'm really pumped to hear what other additions have been added, keeping my fingers crossed for my create a team/franchise mode. But either way i'm stocked on what i've heard so far and still will be once the game is out. Thanks for the info Russ!!!

Yeah the RTTS tidbits we got sound great. Especially how you can create a unique guy from the start of his career.

A batter calling time out, hmmm...

Also if there is anything in the way of classics or franchise improvements.

Re: MLB 11: The Show First Look

Button hitting it is then for me! To be honest, not much of a R stick hitting guy anyway. Though I'm stoked about the analog pitching and fielding.

Great job on all the community requests that get in each year. That's why you guys stay on top (well, that and simply being awesome, of course).

Hmmmm.. Wonder if you can do analog pitching/fielding but button batting????
Long shot but that's be sweet...

They always give us options...

Re: MLB 11 The Show First Look

A lot of great news here. I'm glad I took a break from work to check the forums.

I like the sounds of the RTTS changes and I think playing as a pitcher will be more engaging with the analog controls for pitching.

I can't wait to hear about franchise improvements as that is mostly what I play. I also hope they continued to improve real-time presentation, I think that is the future over cutscenes.

Re: MLB 11 The Show First Look

Nothing mention as far as sounds of the show yet either...last year we saw a huge increase in options but it wasnt fully functional as intended...lets hope the bugs are worked out and these features become as great as they can be

I don't see why not. The control options for the three phases have always been separate and SCEA is awesome about giving us options. Plus, you can do it in the 2K games (Obviously different programming, etc...so I'm not saying that means for sure you can...just saying it's certainly possible.)
