It's not.
It's random on created players.

It would be nice if for RTTS players the spray chart is generated AFTER the player is created. This would be helpful in the case that making a 6'5 260lb first-basemen would more likely be a pull-hitter instead of going oppo. Or a 5'11 180lb utility player using the whole field. Just a suggestion.

Is it confirmed to be truly random yet, or are thee determining factors to it?

So wait let me get this straight. When you create a player, the batting stance is randomly chosen for you? Or am I mis-reading this.

We're talking about push/pull hitting engine, not batting stances..........

I wish there were more gameplay videos or something. I'm too impatient.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Fact Sheet

In regards to push/pull tendencies:

Sounds good. Is this editable in the player editor, and can you set this when you create a new player?

No you can't edit this if you create a player it's random and in the season modes players in the draft are given random tendencies as well.

They are in...just associated with the team rather than player.
(unless you break it...then the player will replace the ### Oakland Athletics for instance)

You won't see that return unless they make a deal with the H.O.F. and retired players again, something that they were unable to come to a deal with a few years ago.

Team records is something they probably could do...and that's a pretty good idea! I like that a lot!

All-Time Records are in? I was hoping but didn't hear anything so thought it wouldn't be in! This just made my day. What records to they track, how many on the all-time and if a dev or Rus could be so kind as to give me a screen shot so I can nerdgasim over it I would be very happy.

I second the team-specific records too. Only feature (besides expansion) that I miss from ASB was watching my players climb the TEAM record and LEAGUE records...the latter of which has been remedied. I know it won't make it this year but I would pay for DLC that added team all-time records (like we did with advanced statistics a couple seasons ago).

Anyway, what records, how many on the list and screenshot please?

That can't be right ? 1.6GHz..

That's 8 cores of 1.6 each. Now don't think that means it translates into 12GHz but it also isn't 1.6GHz of total power either.

Yea, I know a fairly good amount about CPUs. I would bet money that they don't release a CPU running at 1.6 GHz.

I would think that the processors would be at least 2 GHz as well, however I also know that being a console, it has specific, programmed, duties and thus can do more with less.

I'm with you though on thinking it would have more.
