    Re: What Does MLB 13 The Show Need to do Next Year to Satisfy Your Baseball Gaming Ne

    Haven't read all the pages so,sorry if these have already been stated.

    Make Minor League stats matter.
    If your 21 Year old,A potential prospect hits .192 his potential should drop,and if your D potential prospect hits .350,his should go up.But make age expected level factor in(No placing a 25 year old in AA to raise potential)

    Have busts.
    This is my main problem with the game.Very rarely will an A potential not be an A or B overall.Have A's be D's and D's be A's occasionally.

    Let us create a team offline!
    This was added to online so why not give us the ability to make an expansion team? Or even replace the whole league? You can do this in Madden and NBA 2K,why not the show?

    Improve trade logic.
    The Whitesox getting Mike Trout for Kevin Youkillis is definitely not realistic.

    Add Spring training invites!
    Instead of making us sign free agents to 5 year deals let us invite them to spring training and evaluate there.

    FIX THE FUTURES GAME!
    Why have it if every year after a roster update an injured MLB vet will make the Futures teams every year and sometimes be on both teams!
    That's about my only problem's with the game.

      How does this work? I mean, what if the batter fouls it off? Then what?

        i know its quite unlikely, but it would be cool to have the national anthem, and 7th inning stretch (God bless america and take me out to the ballgame)

            It continues on with the new count.....ala ASB 2005
            Great system.

            It had....
            Random count
            Pitchers count(it would generate more towards the pitching ratings more often)
            Hitters count(same as above)
            and then you could choose to have actual counts continuously.
            (1-0....2-1...etc)

            If you fouled off a 1-0 count...it was 1-1 and the AB continued.
            I would love it in the game.

              I think, and I may be wrong, he is means like how it is at a real ballpark. Where you might have some players warming up and the national anthem plays and they stop what they are doing and put their hand over their heart, unless it's Boston, unpatriotic a'holes just keep playing catch while the song of your country plays...sorry where was I.

              I think it would be really cool if they introduced the teams and had them line up along the baselines during the playoffs like they do in real life. Then did the National Anthem and a fly over while everybody is still lined up.

                I'm convinced what this game needs more than anything is a franchise import/export feature which would work from one year to the next.

                I'm falling in love with my GM mode I've created (letting AI manager handle staff and lineups, AI organization handle marketing/training etc.) in which I handle team transactions and then watching games (not manager mode though).

                I'd like to setup an online GM league that sims daily. Franchise rollover would allow for this as well as the long-term buy in.

                Other changes needed:

                Make call ups based on performance, not only injuries

                Deeper minors

                Storylines

                More HBP (check MLB)

                Agree with those who say more busts/gems in draft

                Deeper draft

                Expansion/relocation/stadium generator

                Fan interaction needs major work

                Rainouts/doubleheaders/make up games

                Revamped broadcasts

                Far more stat overlays. Far more

                Deeper stat tracking in-season and year to year

                  More advertisers besides StateFarm. It's always StateFarm this and StateFarm that. What is MLB The Show's favorite thing? StateFarm.

                  More advertisers besides StateFarm, which kinda sucks.

                    You mean like Topps, Majestic, MLB.com, Veterans Association, National Baseball Hall of Fame or Major League Players Association?

                        right....and Volunteers of America.

                        Not there couldn't be or even shouldn't be more sponsers(and like some have said.....seeing your in franchise negotiated FAKE sponser ads on the walls in stadium) in the game.
                        But State Farm is far from the only one in there.

                          I seem to recall MLB 09 on the PS2 did show the fake sponsors.

                              No I meant that lineups could be be randomly brought to you from like Topps, Majestic, StateFarm, and other advertisers. Like pitching reports too.

                                Hoping they finally update the fields this year, and by that I mean the grass and dirt.
