Re: Not impressed w/Marlins new Park

It's certainly something different but it has definitely grown on me. I still love bombing HR's over the carnival ride in CF with Stanton

Has anyone managed to hit that silly HR structure yet?

Re: Not impressed w/Marlins new Park

I have to say I like the new ballpark, but it reminds me a lot of Miller Park. I think it's specifically the windows in left field. If I had to say, Miller Park looks better, but this new ballpark is nice too.

There's not much architecture that looks better than a good ballpark.

I think it looks alright.. kinda plain but not bad.

I honestly hate the real-life design of Miller Park. At no point along the entire outfield is there a section where the stands are immediately beyond the outfield wall. There are also a lot of places without stands at all. Everywhere else, there's always something in front of the stands, such as the bullpens or a restaurant. That means that sooo many home runs wind up going in areas where the fans can't catch them.

Re: Not impressed w/Marlins new Park

When they did a full screen shot of the structure in the game after the first home run I allowed there, I wasn't that impressed by the way it animated, but then tonight when one of the Marlins hit a two-run blast off of me, they showed a camera angle from the 3rd base line; the camera was focusing on the batter running between 2nd and 3rd with the home run structure blinking and fish flying and going nuts in the background... it looked REALLY cool in that shot!

Re: Not impressed w/Marlins new Park

I really dont understand why the new uniforms and logo get so much hate all over the internet.
I mean, cmon, the home unis are white, the away gray.
Take a look at the yankees, which color are their unis again?
And by the way, the marlins have an alternate orange and alternate black uniform, both kick *** in my opinion.
And the logo, ok, i gotta admit, the old florida marlins logo looked better, but cmon, take a look around the league, the only logo which i think is really cool is the blue jays logo, all the other logos are just some letters.....

And the new ballpark, yep, surprise its not a jewel box park, its a modern park and i think the design is, except for that homerun thing, which is a lil bit corny i think, quite good.
The aquarium is a neat feature and i absolutely love those panorama windows, unleashing the skyline of miami.

Re: Not impressed w/Marlins new Park

I do apologize for the flipant racially insensitive comment I posted earlier on this thread.
It was wrong of me. I was just trying to be funny. I did not mean to offend anyone.
I hope you all accept my sincere apology.

I'm part latino and was not the least bit offended.

But yea, that thing in center field is ridiculous and the stadium itself has not impressed me at all. I do think the aquarium is pretty cool, but I will reserve full judgment on everything until I see it on TV and not in a video game.

Their uniforms and colors are a joke though. If your comment didn't fly, I dont know if this will, but they remind me of Team Mexico's unis in the WBC and a lot of the Mexican League and Carribean League unis. Just cheap and cartoony looking.

Hit it in my first game actually. No trophy or anything, but oh well. I don't know why people keep ragging on the thing. If it wasn't there, it would be a pretty boring outfield to look at.

I blasted it a few times when I did a Derby there.

Not yet in a game, though, but I've only played there once.

I'm Irish and you offended me because I'm cheap and like cartoons....(think Jesse Jackson in the South Park episode)....now......apologize....

Re: Not impressed w/Marlins new Park

Not suprised it looks generic. Usually year 2 is when they work their magic. Yankee stadium, Target Field, and Citi field had glarring issues in year one and where corrected in year 2.

right field is wrong in the game.

Re: Not impressed w/Marlins new Park

Batters eye should be black. Also, by looking at the Miami Marlins webcam of the stadium there is no yellow line on top of the fence. I hope they can pull a solid and get this fixed when they send out a patch. I know they fixed some things at Target Field with a patch.

Re: Not impressed w/Marlins new Park

I have a feeling that the outfield walls will have the yellow line once the season starts. Otherwise, you're going to have a stoppage every game to check on home runs.
