MLB 11 The Show First Look

Re: MLB 11 The Show First Look

Wow, I'm glad I started checking out this board a little bit more often than I used to. I would have never seen this.

Great stuff as usual, I'm really looking forward to this year's edition. They seem to have added a lot of different features that will make this game even more enjoyable than the past.

As for the player models not being updated, it doesn't really bother me too much. The player models have always looked really good anyway, and while some of the swing animations can get kind of repetitive, it's definitely not like it's a bad thing. Just maybe not as good as some of us may have hoped.

Nevertheless, this game seems to have met all my expectations, as long as the analog controls work as advertised.

Well done, SCEA!

Looking at the AT&T Park scoreboard in the B. Wilson screen brings tear to my eye :,-)

Sounds awesome...can't wait.

Considering my main drive behind finally getting a PS3 was this game, needless to say I'm very excited for March.

The dynamic rain sounds extremely interesting, wonder if there will be rain delays, rainouts, etc. now.

The stadium specific jumbotrons and presentation setups also sound incredible...interested to see more about that.

Re: MLB 11 The Show First Look

Looks like a lot of good upgrades have been made. I've never been too good at analog game-controls, so I'll have to see how I do with these (guess I can always switch back to the classic controls if need be)... I guess this means raindelays/postponed games and double headers?!

Re: MLB 11 The Show First Look

There's nothing to get straightened out it works the way its supposed to. If you don't/can't pre-load your throws the player will go into a throw ready position (this is what Jon was talking about)and you will loose the smooth transition animations. This is all done for strategy and gameplay balance. However it does take some time to get used to.

I hear ya, and if any development team can get this right it is SCEA.

Having said that, I'm always cautious of games that overpromise and under-deliver. The fact that Robinson was strongly critical of the throwing controls in the first preview concerns me, to be honest. I trust SCEA will work hard to get this feature right (as almost everything about The Show is fantastic), but I'll be a bit skeptical until I read feedback from the community.

One quick question: Will we be able to mix and match analog and classic controls? For example, can we use analog pitching controls but classic fielding controls?

Pure Analog Control might give me a scare, but I'm going to have to master it. I'm glad to hear Co-op has been added in the game. I always thought that it would be amazing to play in a baseball game, so I will surely find out!

Russ I hate it when you toy with us lol. According to the images in the espn preview they look the same (wide shoulders, etc). Hopefully...

Re: MLB 11: The Show First Look

RTTS performance evaluation and training sound awesome.

Weather (with real effects)...BOOYA!

Analog controls...BOOYA!

True Zone hitting (OMFG!!!) BOO-TO-THE-YIGGITY-YA!

Team Specific Broadcast Cameras...BOOYA!

Eric Karros for commentary (and no mention of Rex ) This is kinda nice.

Awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome...


That is all for now.

This does sound awesome. My main grip with the commentary was not only rex, but the entire team was feeling old already. Overall I'm happy they made all these other changes

Re: MLB 11 The Show First Look

This will easily become my favorite game of ALL TIME. I have never been so excited for a game.

Re: MLB 11 The Show First Look

if its not in the game, Id pay for a create stadium download.
Other than that, custom cameras, rain, zone hitting. Dont think this game will leave my ps3.

Re: MLB 11 The Show First Look

I really like the new information that has come out, with the custom camera's, especially with your RTTS player, I think it would be cook to have the batting camera with the picture of Joe Mauer in the picture of the article, that way it really looks like it is you up to bat and your looking out to the pitcher and can have the depth of the walls....looking forward to hearing more about the game in the next coming days.
