    Re: MLB 12 The Show Screenshots - Your New Default Camera View and Other Tidbits

    Absolutely love the new runners on base part to the score overlay. Last years just took up way too much room and didn't look TV like. The new one looks exactly like one that you would see on TV. Definitely a much better score overlay this year. Pictures are looking good.

        ok, thanks for the answer. I completley understand why you have all the info on the screen, I was just hoping for the option to turn it on or off. no big deal.

          I definetly like the new camera angle. I played with an angle very similar to this last year and I loved it. Also, it looks like the players model has been improved because A-Gone looks so much better.

              I also love the new condensed HD score bar and the bases graphic looks identical to what the major broadcast networks use ...BRAVO BRAVO

It would be great if someone could take a picture using the same teams from MLB 11 so you can see side by side just how different the art is.

                As far as 3D grass not going to happen anytime soon it takes up to much memory.
                Too much memory? Really? I am not doubting you by any means but your programmers seem to really nail their sport as opposed to that football game and they have some 3D grass and 11 on 11 on the field doing totally different stuff all the time.

                Perhaps removing a few thousand fans per stadium, mascots that are barely seen and few other things could free up some "memory". In all do respect I think it's more about priorities and figuring out a way to make it look good all the time and not just in replays.

                I mean look how much better your game looks and plays nice 08. I say you guys figured out how to push some memory limits, no?

                  I think your right it does look like the players models have been improved again this year!

                    Something you guys need to understand (hopefully one day) is one development team and project has nothing to do with another. You can't compare oranges to coconuts. A football game having 3D grass has no bearing what so ever on how this game is developed or how resources are used.

                      It's the same skeleton from last year.

                            In game screenshots look great as always. I really hope they've improved the menu UI and franchise mode UI because the in-game stuff is so slick but that side of things is terrible, imo. And as somebody else mentioned (#20) stat screens and overlays with 3D grass.

                              Trick of the eye I guess

                              Russell is that thing on the bottom right side with the Plate, Pitch Type and MPH new? Or is that in MLB 11 The Show?

                              Also I was thinking you could put the pitchers Pitch Count right on that thing too

                                Then give us "few" hardcore fans the option to just not show it!
                                I also always found it to be an eyesore and now there's even more stuff going on.

                                You guys are known for giving us so many options so everyone can play/see/here/feel the game how they like. This has been on my (and quite some others here) list since 08.
                                Never considered myself a hardcore show player, heck I just play exhibition games. A little disappointed...unless we can finally save exhibition games in 12.
                                Then I'll completely forget about the hardcoded screen clutter
