Re: MLB 11 The Show: Just a Few Features Mentioned

Really hoping for some type of an expansion draft mode/feature within the franchise..would put this game over the top imo

For me.... They, SCEA, have already went so far past my expectations that it's well over the top. But I know what you're saying. I almost feel guilty if I mention things not in or not quite right. SCEA is freaking top notch.

Re: MLB 11 The Show: Just a Few Features Mentioned

Anyone know if we will be able to change the game time during season and playoffs ? I am not fond of night games, I love the day games better and lighting. In season mode most games are night time, like the real mlb season, however this is only because of people working in the daytime, and attendence will be down if they played the games during daytime. But to me , there is just something about a day game of baseball. I find the night games look rather drab/ bland. Hope we have that option this year to change the time of games in season mode.

Re: MLB 11 The Show: Just a Few Features Mentioned

The franchise is the most important thing beyond animations and stadium detail to me. It was pretty sad last year after going through most of the season to be saddled with one tiny little celebration. The announcers show nothing of concern really. It was all ho hum imo. I need to see this in motion because that was another thing. The animations while being good, were severely lacking after more than a couple dozen games.

I cannot even count how many times I saw the shortstop and the catcher make the same exact play the same exact way. It got a bit tedious after a while. On the whole I still love ten and the rosters that everybody was able to create. I just want something that is going to be that next step up and I think I will see that with 12 but I am still quite excited about this game just not for 60 bucks.

Re: MLB 11 The Show: Just a Few Features Mentioned

Ya as was mentioned before I hope the announcers display more emotion for important moments throughout the game and especially in big pressure post season situations. Like setting the stage for what is about to happen.

Also as for night games I didn't really find a problem with it except that it got dark WAY to fast. In early april ya games get dark fast but in the middle of summer it is at least 4 innings by the time it gets close to dark. Night games start in light obviously before transitioning to dusk and then into night. If they figured out a way to make this happen that would be tremendous and create that awesome summer baseball atmosphere.

Also it would be cool if they could speed up the clocks in the stadium. Even in a high scoring slugfest in mlb 10 the games would still end at like 9:45 or earlier.The only time I had a game go past 10 was in a coach mode game. In the post game the stadium PA guy says the game took 3 hours and 40 minutes. So the clock in the stadium should reflect that and the in game clock should say like 10:45 instead of 9:45. I know it's a very minor detail and I am sure most people didn't even pay attention to this.

I also think it could help with how the lighting is transitioned if the clocks were synced up as well.

Re: MLB 11 The Show: Just a Few Features Mentioned

Here's what I'd like to see...

1)Add an Online franchise Mode

2) When you're in an online league/franchise at the league menu, I hope you can hear other people in the league, if they happen to have their mic on and are in the league menu at the same time you are...

3) In the game lobbies, add mic icons beside their PSN name for the people that have their mic on...

3) Activate the mic as soon as you accept the game invite when you come to the team selection screen...

4) Do away with the on/off mic button on the controller and just always have the mic on

[BlingBling19]

People should be able to turn there mic on and off whenever they want. It should not be on all the time that is just not a good idea.

Re: MLB 11 The Show: Just a Few Features Mentioned

I am still playing 2009. And since I play with auto field and auto base running (controls are too clunky for me IMO) I will again stick with 2009 as I will be going into my 3rd year of my Yankees Chise.

I had heard the little things were a nice touch to 2010 but the core gameplay was essentially the same. I am getting that same feeling with 2011. The game will have more graphical polish (although I am still blown away by 2009) and the new analog controls will appeal to those that wanted them. But it won't be enough to get me to purchase 2011. I am sure the game will rock. If indeed I read and hear great things (and I will play the demo) I will wait for a big price cut to even consider a purchase.

The Show 2009 was my first baseball game since MVP 2005 so I intend (and am determined) to get at least 3 solid years out of it.

Re: MLB 11 The Show: Just a Few Features Mentioned

Stay tuned...

This game will have a huge jump from '10, even bigger than '08 to '09.

Even some of the previews have touched on that.

Re: MLB 11 The Show: Just a Few Features Mentioned

I'm still holding out for an expansion mode so I can build a team from the ground up, mimicing the exact process new teams go through whenever expansion happens.

I think you're spot on with that predicition.

Didn't get the feeling that the jump from 09 to 10 was all that significant, that's why I skipped the 10-version. But 11 is definitely a must-buy, as I get the impression that we'll see a huge jump from the current version.

It's gonna be great to play with my Sox again, I'm loving the off-season so far.
