Hey Nem,
Is there any way that you could see if crowd logic could be fixed a bit more. Whenever it's a three run or less game in the late innings the crowd is ALWAYS standing like it's the last out of the World Series. I would LOVE to see that be fixed and the crowd only stand up if there is a runner on third with like 2 strikes or in the 9th. Could you PLEASE check into that? Thanks!

Yes, crowd logic is not right. The crowd is way too active for a baseball game during routine plays, and even pitch to pitch. If you watch the crowd behind the plate while pitching, they are jumping up and down, raising arms, looks a mess. It looks like it is always the botom of the ninth with 2 outs or something.

I know in the scheme of things it is a nit, but it takes away from the immersion factor, IMHO.

Will they still have the cut scenes in the game where it shows the pitcher between pitches, etc.....

On a dropped 3rd strike have they added a tag animation or is it still dropped 3rd strike and throw to first base?

Can you check to see if when the scrolling of league leaders during franchise gameplay been fixed? Meaning 1.000, 2.000 the double decimal system while showing the leaders.

Can somebody please fix the blonde spectator lady with the longer hair? Her hair is hideous and stands out too much in the crowd. She really does make it look a little less comfortable. Dat hair has to go man. Pretty Please. In pitcher view we really do have to stare at fans all day so....

I requested & sent a PM in detail about this last year to EnigmaNemesis and want to see if it got in this year

RE: Sounds of the Show

Can you now set broadcast intro music for each day of the week???

Example using the Dodgers

Monday=(Regional) PRIME TICKET broadcast music
Tue=(Local) KCAL 9 broadcast music
Wed=(National) ESPN broadcast music
Thurs=(National) MLB NETWORK broadcast music
Fri=(Local) KCAL 9 broadcast music
Sat=(National) FOX broadcast music
Sun=(National) ESPN broadcast music

This would be ideal for people that play season & franchise modes and want each day of the week to feel like a different broadcast without having to change it each time

seems like I rarely see fans sitting down... its a 3 hour game. That's some tired legs and arms.

- Did they fix the bug where the announcers mention a wrong stat number? For example, in my franchise I've just gotten 57 saves with Papelbon, but since I simmed an earlier game where he got a save, Campbell said I just recorded save 58 instead.

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

When a pitcher comes into the game, is it possible for the OSD to display WHIP? I just saw in the Rangers/Angels video that it still displays hits and walks in separate categories, which is okay, but kind of makes it hard to read the full OSD before it cuts away to something else.

Just my annual question if additional "playable" fielding cameras were added or not. Would love to have a second deck cam where I can see all the animations, look at any player I want at any time, and have a good view of ball flight and the stadiums. Gracias.

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

I asked this in the Vita thread, but maybe it belongs here more.

For MLB 13 on Vita have the performance issues been addressed or is SCEA at least aware of the issues?

The unplayable framerate at numerous points of the game (pitcher going into set, batter walkups, etc).

Will the crowd at least be all the same resolution? Its pretty stupid to see a hot dog vendor's model fully rendered and then the rest of the crowd looking like a C64 game. At least make everyone the same so its not as noticeable.

For PS3 and Vita:

Catcher set ups? Will they finally have new or accurate set up locations for the catchers once pitches are called?

As it is now they set up in a few pre-determined spots and it frankly has always pissed me off. I put the ball on the outside corner and the catcher sets up right down the middle. I call for a high fastball, right down the middle.

I don't think it would be a difficult thing to implement and would make the game feel a lot more accurate to real life. Even keeping the pre-set positions that the game has now, but have the catcher put the mitt where the cursor actually is. Add a position for standing up for high pitchers as well. Maybe even one for pitcher in the dirt.

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

Nem-

Can we please get a rundown of all the changes to Sounds of The Show? Particularly....

- How many total slots do we have this year (music, chants, yells). Is it the same as last year?

What needs to be tweaked...
1) The in-between inning music only played for like 7 secs whereas the previous year...it would play until you hit the X button. Can they fix it back to letting it play much longer? You barely get into your song and it fades out too early.

2) The Away Pitcher music would only play when the new pitcher got to the mound. It should be played as the current pitcher is leaving the mound in disgust. Makes more sense when you play a "hey...hey...goodbye" when the pitcher is being pulled as opposed to when the new relief pitcher is coming in.

All for now...

Thanks!

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

Think these questions fit here:

1- Is there going to be tipped strike three that is caught by the catcher? Should cut down on the 10 pitch at bat.

2- Is the pitch count going to appear in the new score banner at the top of the screen?

3- Have they confirmed a strike call from the base umpires with less than 2 outs? Essentially just raising the right fist confirming its a strike.

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

Hopefully I can get a PS3 to play this game... Anyway, will there be more stats in the game? I'd like to see a player's entire career, not just my RTTS guy. Also, more stats tracked, like the advanced metrics that statheads like to see.
