The Show gets my vote over all nostalgiaComment

Re: Stadium upgrades for MLB 12
No.....you must include nostalgia!
It's an internet requirement!
I have probably played more games of FPS:Baseball than any other title to date, so that was the best!(and manage only mode)
I have created more rosters and custom leagues for High Heat so that must be the greatest!(and manage only mode)
I created the Brooklyn Outlaws in ASB2005....greatest.(and manage only mode)
You could move your player anywhere you wanted in MVP teh awesome!
All The Show has going for it is the best gameplay of any of them....
Who the heck wants just that!?
Pssshhh.....

Re: Stadium upgrades for MLB 12
Except the show needs to be divided into two modes, online and offline. Offline was great, online had a million flaws, chat rooms that didn't work, play now that didn't work, no ISP rating tool, laggy animations, bunting guys 2nd to home... as a 99% online player, I expect a lot more from this franchise. It's 2011, they need to get with the times.Comment

Re: Stadium upgrades for MLB 12
This reminds me of a poll on OpSports that had results that favored offline players 3-1 or something like that. I'm not saying that they shouldn't improve online play, but just because you play a certain mode doesn't mean that the game is broken.Rangers - Cowboys - Aggies - Stars - Mavericks

Re: Stadium upgrades for MLB 12
I don't mean to defend some flaws in the online mode (yes they do exist), but I've had a fair amount of fun that I ended up playing more than 300 (LOL) online games. And this is from someone who's never really played online games or intended to...
A lot of the issues you mentioned above, your opponents are partly to blame. You cannot expect everything in a video game to work perfectly as intended, and if the game actually allows certain plays that deviate from reality, you either ARE allowed to do them or there needs to be an agreement between players not to "exploit" it.
I probably won't play online next year unless the opportunities arise to play against sim-minded players, but for all the (league) games where players play under certain rules, I did have a blast... The online portion was definitely functional enough to be very enjoyable.Comment

Re: Stadium upgrades for MLB 12
We actually spoke about this very thing with SCEA.....but it turns out that O.S. is the direct opposite of the rest of the universe......Online players obliterate the amount of offline players outside of these "friendly confines".

Re: Stadium upgrades for MLB 12
Okay, that's your opinion. My post was simply intended to find out if they re-enabled the classic stadiums for online play though (as they were active in MLB 10), then when people paid in MLB 11, they did not unlock online. THAT was my main question.
The quality of online play is debatable, I don't feel like getting into that now. You can't rely on your opponents to play "honorably", and I'll leave it at that.Comment

For Citizens Bank Park
I just wanted to make sure Sony got the color of the font on the 329 on the left field foul pole correct.
The 329 has Black text with White and Red border around it.Last edited by tnixen; 12-24-2011, 12:02 PM.Comment

Re: Stadium upgrades for MLB 12
O's are doing some upgrades to OPACY.
Well too late for this version as there are no pictures (and the statues are going to unveiled as the season goes on), but remember it for 2013.Comment

Re: Stadium upgrades for MLB 12
As Blzer and myself have outlined--it was my original thread, which got unfairly locked after it started a storm, that put this to the races, where as he has done all he can to make real world comparisons that truly show the need for change--just making a few changes to grass and walls and even dirt would go A LONG way to extending the realism in this game. I really hope these devs understand and care about this. It is very important that the grass be close to its real world counterpart or else the entire feeling of the stadium is destroyed in many cases. Target Field especially. I cannot reiterate enough on how shoddy the color of the grass is in game compared to real life. Seriously, look at Chase Stadium as well. It is not even funny how wrong it looks in game. Do you think we don't notice this?
And the fact is this isn't some major programming job like your guy completed with ball physics. If you don't have stadium designers who are as dedicated as that then find some new ones! This is a couple guys who gather some pics of each stadium that are reliable and go and change the colors for each stadium. A week's worth of tweaking and this is finished or near so. And it is important, too! This isn't a moving roof or stadium creator we are talking about!
For this not to be changed just kind of says, 'Oh, we care about things that only fans care about like billboards but we don't care about the general accuracy of the colors of the game'. This is absurd IMHO. I love these devs but it is time to realize when things need to move on. You guys strive for realism and yet you overlook one of the most important aspects in this drive for realism. Anyway, I am done bringing it up because it seems like I don't appreciate the game when that is not the case at all. I love the game....
Bert Blyleven's number now retired and numbered with the rest of them.

And get rid of that PLAYER'S TRUST sign in left field!
The second scoreboard is an inning summary not a mini me of the big one.
BIG ONE: the shadow is wrong-- it should cut across from first base side, not the third base side.. reason is the sun passes to the south being that we're in the northern hemisphere.
The outfield walls are a darker green- For saturday games the twins mascot in the home run derby... they set up a little rubber home plate in short center and TC crushes softballs into the stands ...
- After the game highlights you hear the announcer talk about light rail options but says they're beyond right field.. they're beyond left field.
- One flaw that I have noticed in the MLB: The Show's Re-Creation of Target Field is the shading during day games. In the day games at Target Field, the shade is shown over the Left Field Bleachers and behind the plate. However, during day games around 1:00 (The standard start time of most Twins day games), the only part of the stadium that is shaded is the right field side, as you'll see in this picture. This is the way it should look at the start of the day: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oNq6hi7d3o...dium+10036.jpg
- the gate in target plaza could use more work
- flowers in the planters on the left and right field walls
- you don't really notice this in the game but the lights behind home plate in the "halo" aren't on during the game
- could add different grass cut patterns to choose from
- TC bear shooting t-shirts into the stands between innings
- fighter jet flyovers and 150' flags for opening day
- vendors walking around wear those insanely bright yellow polos, and the hot dog vendors with the red/white striped shirts and red caps.
HOTDOG vendor in striped shirt:
- strobe lights on the perimeter of the minnie and paul sign.
- are the seats in the legends deck the right color?
- smoke rising up from the state fair food stand in center field.
- some seats in right field are also wood backed.
- every game should be a sellout or near sellout.
- kestral flying around eating moths
The TC logo behind homeplate now has the C in red color.
Newer grass cut--it'd be nice if you guys just gave us a choice of 10 or so different cuts--they usually use this one:
