    Re: Community Day 2013 - Presentation, Graphics & Sound - Questions/Concerns/Inquirie

    I'll answer and/or comment on the ones that I can.

    Will we be able to actually see players/managers getting ejected? Matt V. does reference this when it happens but you never see it. I saw on youtube that an earlier version of the show actually showed players going nuclear over bad calls and getting ejected shortly afterwards.
    I did not specifically ask about this, but I can say with almost absolute certainty that we can not expect the arguments/ejections to be amplified over what we saw in 12 any time soon.

    The MLB has a product and brand to protect (and rightfully so, in my opinion) and are the ones that will not allow certain images (and while on the subject, other licencing) to occur.

    -Maybe it's just me because I use the 'timing' feature instead of analog, but it's near impossible to get opposite field hits. Even when I consciously swing late to go the other way I mostly pop up or hit the ball foul. Again, maybe it's me so don't assassinate me if that's the case; this is/was my first version of the show so maybe I just need to work on my timing more.
    I'm suprised to read your opinion on this one.

    I personally feel that opposite field power was pretty over the top in this series prior to 13, as was the ability to get base hits to the opposite direction.

    This year, expect the new spray chart logic to have a positive impact on what we see in the field. I think everyone will be very impressed with how this was implemented.

    -Lastly, you know a game is awesome when you can have just as much fun watching the game play itself. Would it be possible to see YOUR team's final score on the out-of-town scoreboards, or at the vey least display your team's upcoming matchup if you haven't played yet? I realize this may be difficult because the game let's you play after all other games are completed regardless of the start time. Great Forum...thanks!
    If you have not played or simulated a game using 30-team control, you will not see that game's final score or scoring progession. Nor should you.

    The only way to bypass this in 30-team control is to simulate or play the games that you want to see progress during your game before hand.

    As far as the out-of-town scoreboard matchups go, I'm a little confused. Can you not see that day's scheduled games on the scoreboards now?

      First, I appreciate the quick response as I am aware that everyone with insider info on the upcoming release is fielding tons of questions. As far as the ejections are concerned, I was thinking the same thing about MLB protecting their brand, but I'd thought I'd give it a shot anyway. The out of town scoreboard question was more about my particular franchise. Yes I can see the scores from games in progress and final scores from earlier times. I only control one franchise, so I understand now that I won't be able to see my team's final score while watching another game at a later time. Thanks again for the fast reply.

        Just a quick question, why are uniform numbers often so inaccurate? Its not all of them but I'm a Marlins fan and I noticed in one of today's franchise mode screenshots, Jacob Turner is still listed as #50 when he wore #33 last season. Its not a major thing but I've seen this countless times throughtout the years.

          I'm sure the numbers will be updated for the final rosters.

            Can any CD members comment on TruBroadcast 2.0?
            Haven't heard much about the changes there.

              Now that we have Nike undershirts, do we have any other Nike apparel (batting gloves, cleats..)?

                  It would seem they want to keep this a Surprise and not give anything away before release.

                  I am guessing a lot has changed as for as Presentation goes

                    I haven't written much about this since few would care about what I write about presentation, but the guys (including myself) have mentioned how better integrated all the presentations are. The notion of TruBroadcast is to making the presentation all happen at real-time, as if you are really watching TV so that cut scenes & replays don't throw off the timing of all the events happening on the field (that's why they removed Real-time presentation option in 12)... and I think you'll definitely feel significant improvement in this... you don't feel as much disconnect when the game transitions between the game and the presentation. and there are different feels in all the major modes (Franchise, RTTS, Playoff) as well.

                    Overall I liked the improvement very much...

                        Commentary is something kinda hard to appreciate in a short time like we had at CD... since the variety only shows itself over a longer time (it's also stupid to remove the stock comments that's been used over the years, because they are fine by itself... it only becomes stale for those who have been playing for a long time).

                        Besides, we had several games going in a room so it's harder to concentrate on audio... I for one closely paid attention to audio only when I was playing RTTS with a headphone... so other guys may have better ideas about the commentary improvement.

                        When I noticed, Steve Lyons sounded fresh and new. Though I didn't dislike Soup either... he was an older guy with a distinct personality. but who knows since I did like Rex Hudler's gung ho style when everyone hated him, so I'm really not a norm here... essentially we have three younger guys in the booth now, so I'm not sure how they end up together over a longer term...

                        But Linda Ronstadt and similar old-school type references are likely all gone... Don't know if those are replaced by Phoebe Cates references from Fast Times from Lyons, but I'm fairly sure he wouldn't take his pants off during the broadcast in The Show.

                              Yu Darvish got rid of his orange highlighted hair. He now just has short black hair. Anyway they can change that before release? Couldnt find a picture of it yet. Also in general I'm guessing darvish looks much more like himself than last year?
