MLB 13 The Show Trailer - First Look

Re: MLB 13 The Show Trailer - First Look

Guess: The string of expletives means it is much better than MLB Today. This screen shows an actual MLB game in progress, just like you would see on ESPN.com or MLB.com. You can enter the game at any time--so if the Dodgers and Giants are tied in the seventh inning in real life, you can jump into this game in the Show with the same lineups, available players, etc.

Would be a technical wonder seeing how much trouble developers have just getting accurate roster updates out on a regular basis, but it would be great. Maybe you can even access previous days' games and jump in at any point to try to get a different outcome.

Russell?

This is almost exactly what I thought when I saw the screen. If they could pull something like this off using the feed that websites do for live tracking it would be unbelievable.

Also digging the updated HR celebration at the plate with Bautista and The high fives for Cutch in the dugout. It looks more like what you would see in an actual broadcast with the cam at the very end of the dugout looking in as he gets dap from his teammates. Very cool touch and update on these celebrations. "The Little Things", baby!

Not sure if it has been mentioned but at the screen with Hunter Pence and his cyberface, his ratings are show with the usual bar system BUT also with numbers. Is this the year we get numbers on player ratings??

This would be a very small change, with a very BIG impact. I've wanted that for years. It would greatly speed up my roster decisions, and would keep my TV screen a little more fingerprint free (from measuring the bars ).

Good stuff!
But these teasers sure make March seem much further away than it is.

How's this for a far-fetched guess into the "Live" feature:

A live game is "streamed" to The Show and played out in front of you, only in the game.

Think of the Gameday feature on MLB.com, but with The Show playing it out as it happens.

Sure would beat paying $120 for MLB.tv!

Yeah, I know this will be a welcome addition for most everyone here. I for one will definitely be glad to see it as well. But Im sure this forum will blow up after the release with some guys griping about certain players being rated wrong and Player "A" should have a higher speed rating than Player "B", etc. Everyone will have their opinions and I'm sure we will see lots of em on here. LOL

Here we see Cutch picking grass and doing a wind direction test. Why? Is it because of a pre game player analysis? 3D grass? Probably neither, but it's cool to look at.

I think he is blocking out the sun... possibly?

I considered something like that (or "play a past game and jump in whenever"), but I dismissed the screenshot when I saw Melky on the Giants.

It could still be the case with non-updated roster though.

I want to vomit every time I see a 1-99 number associated with a sports game.
Especially baseball.

Begin by helping support the movement for reducing the importance of overall player ratings.

Re: MLB 13 The Show -- Exclusive Reveal Trailer

I really hope this screenshot means we will get to see the Home team run out on the field at the start of every game and not just at random times. Also hope we hear the PA Announcer saying something like "Here are your 2013 Los Angeles Dodgers" with the crowd going wild

Also would be cool if following the home team taking the field we then get to listen to in full the national anthem

This is how its done in real life at the start of every game for the home team

I think it is associated with the new "playoff mode/playoff atmosphere" they seem to be adding in. I really that the atmosphere is amped up in franchise mode in the playoffs.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Trailer - First Look

I agree with Knight. Numerical ratings are aweful unless they were "subjective" and based off a scouts interpretation. The better the scout, the closer the accuracy with it never being 100%.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Trailer - First Look

I noticed Pence has a computer generated head but yet Sherzer (sorry if I misspell his name) has a regular picture. Does this mean anything or does it just mean that Pence doesn't have a Giants photo in the game. I'm used to seeing some lower caliber players with the comp. generated, but can't remember a name as big as Hunter Pence not having a photo. Just a question.
