MLB 13 The Show Fact Sheet

Re: MLB 13 The Show Fact Sheet

the H/9 and HR/9 shouldn't be taken literally when playing a game (as opposed to simming)... Think of it more as the pitcher's ability to limit hard contact and flyballs.

Is that Chapman example true? He has a career .148 AVG against and a 0.40 HR/9... Are you playing with SCEA or OSFM stock rosters by chance?

Chapman I think with Knight's opening day rosters. In game is not a big problem, but the sim stats just bug me.

OK, that makes sense... There's also a correlation between individual pitch command and high ERA's and HR's/9, I ran a few tests with Felix giving him varying degrees of command and lower command = more dingers.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Fact Sheet

The only thing that pisses me off about this game is how much more in depth its presentation is than other sports games. If The Show can do these things why can't Madden or NCAA?? NBA 2K is probably the only game that comes close to what The Show can do.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Fact Sheet

Marketing and game development have separate budgets...

This has been discussed before.

Thanks for the enlightening comment though.

Yes, they have separate budgets. Since you're trying to simplify what I'm saying I'll do the same.

Lets say marketing and R&D were the only two departments. Lets say SCEA has $100 to spend. SCEA has to determine what money to give to what department. As a fan of fundamentals, I'd want most of the money to go to R&D. That's just not how it works.

Oh well.

I will buy the game anyway as it's fun to play

I would like to see/hear more about this new and improved Franchise mode. It certainly sounds interesting, but I'm going to need to see it in action before making any decisions.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Fact Sheet

Boom baby boom! As a deep franchise only player, I am stoked. Glad that you boys made some of the small changes that really impact the feel of the game for me.

Now here's to hoping lineup logic is implemented!

TOP 50 PROSPECT ICONS!!!!! Sounds like its time for a KSig Top Prospect chat!

Re: MLB 13 The Show Fact Sheet

Just got around to reading the fact sheet (to busy watching tv earlier) looks pretty sweet.

Couple of points in particular caught my attention.

-The Show Live!!!

-Button accuracy throwing meters!!!

Those are very innovative additions.

Grand Theft Auto has had carjacking for years now;

Re: MLB 13 The Show Fact Sheet

I wonder if the player photos that wil update throughout the year will get put in our franchise without starting a new one. I know on nba2k13 you could start a franchise and when they updated the courts (Lakers, Suns, etc.) they were automatically put in my franchise without starting a new one. That would be cool if this were the case with the player photos?

Ah, you're that guy... If they have two separate budgets, why would they both be drawing from a collective fund? The money given for marketing has nothing to do with the amount of money given for R&D, that's why they are separate... Its just like when people were griping about 2K's $1 million dollar thing and how that should be spent on making the game better... Even if 2K axed the contest that money still wouldn't go to game development.

You do realize our marketing team and marketing plan has absolutely zero to do with our developmental focus and what we choose to spend our resources on right?

Franchise and RTTS received a very large portion of the resources this year.

Straight from the horse's mouth

It really cracks me up when people say "I'm not buying the game", or "I'm not ready to make a decision" etc. First, NOBODY cares if you're buying the game or not, it doesn't change my decision or anyone else decision either. Second, chances are that even though you're talking all the smack, you'll end up buying the game anyways just because its a million times better then the other baseball choice on the market. Lastly, $60 for a game was a lot 7 years ago when most of us were in high school and worked part time. If you think about it, $60 for a game is not that much, if you consider how much we spend on phones, movie tickets, and beer. What I'm trying to say is this....Stop acting like you're breaking anyone's heart by not dishing out lousy 60 bucks for a video game that you'll probably get a good 4-6 months out of and you'll resell on ebay and get half your money back. This is one of, if not the best game on the market so please spare my eyes the reading of your nonsense comments. thanks.

Seriously... I'm still in school and only have a measly part time job, but $60 is 6 hours of work for me (most, if not all of which is spent surfing the internet lol). Its almost like $60 is the difference between life and death for some people... (Is it? Don't want to make any jokes in bad taste...)
