MLB 12 The Show - Pictures/Videos/Highlights - Operation Sports Forums

Hey everyone, just wanted to let you all know OS now has an official Discord that you can join right now. We’ve kicked around Discords for individual games in the past, but it felt like the right time to make it more of an official thing.

Steve and I have wanted to get this going for a bit because we obviously still hear from y’all who are unhappy with some stuff on the forums, plus when there are forum outages we still want to have a place for everyone to hang. My overarching goal for the longer term is to have both Discord and the forums ultimately work together. There are some logistical issues with the vBulletin forums that don’t allow things to sync right with Discord so there will be a little maneuvering as we try to get mods and forum members any proper roles/tags they need on the Discord, but we can work through that stuff easily enough as people join.

Our general goal is to give people more options to interact with OS community members, whether that’s Discord, the forums, this newsletter, or improved apps. If people want to stick more to the forums, that’s cool. If people want to stick more to the Discord, that’s also cool. In my perfect world, we do a lot of BSing and day-to-day chatting on the Discord about games and sports, and then more of the “in-depth” discussions or hefty things like long slider breakdowns or analysis of gameplay end up on the forums so that can act as a sort of “best of” area for anything OS community related. That said, you all will ultimately shape how the ecosystem shakes out, I just want to give you spaces you like so you can have a good time with other folks in the community.

The same general rules will apply on the Discord as they do on the forums, and we’ve brought most of the forum categories to the Discord as well so there should not be too much confusion as you navigate around.

With the Operation Sports and Discord announcement now out there, it’s also worth mentioning our OS premium newsletter, which quietly launched a couple of weeks ago. Built off the Not Just Another Roster Update newsletter, it offers a mix of retrospectives, guides, interviews and deeper dives into the sports gaming world—covering both current and classic titles.

These are some nice videos! Thanks for sharing.

Right at the tail end of this, your voice gets all freaky! Though it all but confirms that some robot is calling the shots up in the American North West.

We know who's really running things...

This just... sucked haha.

I was recording the entire game to put up online, but got frustrated once it became 7-1. It's 7-6 now, by the way (only the bottom of the 5th inning).

For some reason, I'm suprised by how beautiful your video looks.

And yes, I know who posted it...

Yet I'm still in awe. Thanks for sharing.

What's the real difference? Is it the effect of 3D TV? I'm also shocked by how good the video looks...

I think its the fact that Blzer has a video capture card, so what he just posted is actual live gameplay as opposed to the usual game highlights/recap that is usually posted. The quality is amazing because the game isn't compressing the video like it does for replays and highlights.

On that note, please try a game with classic pitching and behind the pitcher batting Blzer. I want to see how the show stacks up visually to a televised game lol.

You could just do CPU versus CPU to see that effect.

Unfortunately, with an unrealistic looking broadcast fielding camera and no camera transition delay after contact (and still pretty weak commentary, in my view), you would lose the effect pretty quickly. Oh, the game's color scheme isn't the best either.

I see... so in theory all I need is to get a video capture card installed on my computer and feed signals to it from PS3 to create better movies. I thought all these people making gaming videos have some dedicated recording device to play and capture without degrading quality.

I'm almost tempted to get one just to measure pitch speeds more accrately... what a nerd.

I don't have a video capture card. I have just as you said... a dedicated recording device to play and capture without degrading quality.
