Re: MLB 13 The Show Video and Blog - Franchise Mode

The game is done.

i want to make sure everyone sees this again, makes me sick when some people complain before they even play the game

Looks good but one concern. So in 4 years the royals payroll is at 121m. I know its nice to be a fan of a small market team and dream of this after successful seasons, but as the A's have shown having successful seasons does not always equal large payrolls.?

In real life a team's overall budget has little to do with consistent winnings seasons. Its more about the market and even more to do with television contracts. I like what the show is doing though.

I don't think anyone is complaining about gameplay or anything of that nature... more in the line of small details that the average consumer/baseball fan wouldn't notice.

I think I would be sick if people didn't point out something they thought was wrong, how else would they be able to correct those mistakes, by reading our minds? Don't forget that SCEA makes weekly roster updates (which pertains to my issue) and the occasional patch, so just because the game is done doesn't mean that we're stuck with the imperfections.

A few things that I noticed after first viewing of the video that I loved was the Opening Day presentation, ETAs on players, better scouting, numbers for overall rating now, and Top 50 prospects. Love it.

Every damn year I say I'm going to skip the game. And every damn year they just suck me right back in!!

Anyone know the significance of the training methods that show "Auto-..." compared to the others?

Some just say "Sprinting" ... others "Auto-Bullpen Session", etc.

As you cycle through the different options for training....you will see which attributes it effects by the color of the numbering on the bar turns green as opposed to the yellow for those unaffected.

The franchise mode in this game is so in depth. Love it.

hence why a feedback forum is posted around april, how would you feel if you spent an entire year on this game like they have

This video was awesome. I can't wait for the game to come out. Franchise mode will be better than it ever has this year.

Yeah, no. I know what the feedback forums are and I know how to use them thank you very much. Unfortunately those apply to games beyond the current year and what I'm inquiring about refers to the roster they upload on release day, which is vital since that is the roster OSFM will be based off of. This is something they are working on up until release, otherwise they wouldn't have all of the updated transactions in the first roster update... SCEA takes their break after the game is released, not the month before.

The CPU trading was talked about in the CD Franchise thread by a few members that attended the event. Your answer is in there.

Can't you post a direct link.

I wanna do some of the reading specifically about the ai trading and how it's going to handle it.

Hope we can still control all 30 teams again, I couldnt see at the top L1 or R1 to change teams

Re: MLB 13 The Show Video and Blog - Franchise Mode

I wonder if the players with the new "Top 50" mark on them will be able to be edited? I remember in MVP 05 (yes referring to that game again!) players also had the Top prospect mark on them and were able to be edited.

One thing that bugged about the show was some players who were clearly prospects were unable to edited, greyed out.

Its just an icon given to the 50 best prospects, so its variable.

For the second part of your comment, are you sure they were CAPs? If they are SCEA players then they cannot be edited per MLB...
