Re: CES questions you have about MLB 13 The Show

Fron the front end in the roster management. Can we release a player to Free Agency WITHOUT having to replace him with another player from the FA pool. Or is it still the same as it has been?Thanks again.

I can tell you that one.

Outside of franchise/season mode...you cannot.
90 players on all team rosters at all times while editing.

Re: CES questions you have about MLB 13 The Show

Just your thoughts on any new swing and/or fielding animations, and the commentary would be awesome. If these three things were addressed, I'll be happy. Honestly, I'll be happy if they repackage 12 with the League change and new rosters, but with these changes I'd be ecstatic.

Can you be more specific? What about the commentary do you want to be addressed? Same thing with the animations.

Can you be more specific? What about the commentary do you want to be addressed? Same thing with the animations.

Basically just if there's any new ones. We've had the same swing animations for what seems like an eternity but I'll be as specific as I can get:

1.) In the reveal trailer, there's a new animation for right handed batters who swing with one hand (looks like Jose Bautista's home run celebration). Are there any others? Specifically for right handed batters with one handed swigs because not a lot of people swing the way the new animation looks and it would be unfortunate if everyone now swings like this.

2.) If you come across any no doubt homers, how do the celebrations look?

3.) Is the addition of the new commentary guy a stop gap, with Matty V having the same lines as he has had (some of which have been in since MLB 06 The Show) or did they totally rerecord the commentary? And if it is a stop gap, how does it flow between the guys in the booth? Do they interact, like the guys from the other game and a real broadcast, or is it still Matty V - Insert color commentary line here - slience as it has been for the last few years?

Anything you come across that's new would be awesome to hear as well.

Looking forward to your hands-on impressions and thanks for your efforts! I'm interested in any changes to pulse pitching, both in how it looks (new graphic?) and works (effort?). Also, I believe there is a new throwing meter, so impressions of that would be great.

Thanks

Has the presentation style changed when games are started? EX: we've had the lame "zoom out" of the stadium for the last 5 or so years. Thanks!

Keep the questions coming.

What is with the Nike logo on undershirts?! Is this an ester egg for a bigger reveal? What else can be shared about Road to the Show and player customization options?

Re: CES questions you have about MLB 13 The Show

Not sure if this one has been asked yet, but which players received new stances or pitching deliveries? I remember a few from last year's game being way inaccurate.

Re: CES questions you have about MLB 13 The Show

I have tons of questions but I thought I would see if you can find out about the most important ones to me.



1. Did they add the "Pitch Count" anywhere on screen during gameplay so you don't need to press the select button anymore to see it? Is it always showing?

2. On the Batters due up overlay in between innings do you now see the 3 batters batting stats for the day? Example "1 For 2" "0 For 2" "2 For 2"

3. When a batter hits a Home Run do we finally get a "TV Broadcast style" overlay that pops up with something like "2 Run Home Run Andrew McCutchen 9th This Season" And is it shown while the camera is focused on the batter while rounding the bases or crossing Home Plate?

4. Overall does the Presentation look, sound and feel a lot more like a real Baseball TV broadcast? Like in a ESPN,TBS, Fox Baseball kind of way?

Also can you check and see if they fixed the LED screens in right field at Citizens Bank Park? If you could take a screenshot of the whole right field outfield wall and upper deck that would be great.

These same questions plus a lot more are in the "CD questions thread" also so if you can not answer any of these don't worry about it as the CD guys will take care of it in a few weeks

Thanks FreezeTime and be sure to give Russell a big hello from all of us here at OS!
