More in between pitch animations for the pitcher. They have done great with the batters stepping out of the box between pitches and fixing like the batting gloves or what have you but how bout giving the pitcher some more animations so they both are getting set about the same time.

Agree with this.

Pitchers get ready to throw again way too fast compared to the batter, have them take more time when receiving the ball back from the catcher.

not sure if i saw it or not, but being able to trade more than 3 players and have top top prospects worht more (3 of the games best prospects should be enough to get Matt Kemp on a last place dodgers team)

Since I helped create the 1987 and 1984 roster set I would like to see more player accessories such as glasses from the 80's the big rimmed glasses and longer hair and longer facial hair ect...Create a batting stance,Create a Stadium for SURE!!! Also for the older season roster sets I would love to see custom franchise. where if you wanted 16 teams in the league from so you could play 1927 season that would be completely sweet and also able to change team names and cities such have the Washington Senators,St.Louis Browns ect....

Re: What are u looking for in MLB the show 12 ?

all i'm looking for is two things;

generated counts and co-op season/franchise mode (being able to play two players on the same team).

i lied, a few more things. analog hitting to get a little mix of timing. it should be an up-down motion, with vision/discipline/contact ratings guiding the PCI. also, i would love some stride feedback in words, not based on the size of the PCI.

another thing i'd love is a full swing preview, instead of the stance it's self. just to give myself a better gauge of how big the step/stride is.

a MLB Moments mode would be killer.

dreads, please! rickie weeks would appreciate this greatly.

Not sure if its been mentioned, but a Manager Carousel similar to that in NCAA Football 12. It would be interesting to be hired/fired by some of the top clubs in MLB. Maybe have them start as a bench coach/base coach and work their way up through the system similar to RTTS.

We used to have this for the manager position.
I have asked to be able(ala OOTP) to be hired as say the AA manager and either work you way up the ladder in the organization or even be hired away by other organizations.

It would be fun to see the flight of the ball on no doubters.

Trade Finder (similar to NBA 2k)

Ability to choose "windup" or "stretch" when choosing a Pitching Motion.

I forgot to add that to my list of ideas. I think that the possibly to choose from a windup and stretch motion would be a pretty awesome idea.

Re: What are u looking for in MLB the show 12 ?

I would like a player search like NBA 2k has. I hate scrolling through the different crops of free agents when i'm looking for someone.

Agreed. Especially when looking to acquire a specific player and you have to go through every roster and sometimes the free agent pool just to find him.

Re: What are u looking for in MLB the show 12 ?

I have heard that Create A Stadium will probably not be implemented in the game, but I still REALLY want a Create A Team feature. Also, more accessories in the Create A Player such as necklaces, more hairstyles, flat brimmed hats, etc. Also PLEASE PLEASE fix the 3/4 sleeve option for next year as it is very glitchy this year and very annoying... Also please improve collision detection as well! And for created player's individual cards, you should be able to take your own picture for the cards. Thanks!

This was mentioned by a couple of us, especially Nemesis04 who brought it up when we were there at the CE... keep your fingers crossed!

Mine are!

In no order I would like to see:

I really hope that they tighten up budgets (or let us customize them). It's way too easy to have $70 million sitting around in the bank which makes franchise mode easy and/or you have to incorporate house rules. I would love to have to make tough decisions on resigning a guy or have to try to make due with low tier FAs.

Ability to set team philosophy to incorporate whether an organization favors advanced stats or more traditional ideas. This could impact things such as the players they value in FA/trades, the players they scout (HS vs College) and also impact how the AI manages the game.

Dynamic ratings (or some other engine tweak) to make it worth calling up minor league players besides wanting to or injuries. This would be great for the AI as they would call guys up for reasons outside of injuries. The flip side could be a great system for punishing you if you bring a guy up before he's ready that would stunt his progression.

A nice tie in to the minor league idea would be some kind of prospect/minor league organization rankings similar to what Baseball America or Keith Law does.

A revamped scouting/drafting process. I'm not looking for 55 rounds of draft, but the entire process is rather boring, simple and feels extremely dated. It would be nice to have something like salary demands or the chance your mid/late round HS draftee would opt for college.

A simple request for setting lineups would either have a master lineup that you could fill out and the NL/AL RH/LH lineups would auto populate based on or the ability to just copy/paste lineups. Something similar that would be nice would be the ability to set an organizational depth chart that the CPU would reference if you chose to automatically set your lineup in case of an injury/trade.
