Re: MLB 13 The Show Q & A Thread

I can sim 2 seasons and tell you where some of the bigger names are if you want....

If you have the time. Just in general could you tell us if it looks reasonable or if it's out of control like most sports games tend to be

Re: MLB 13 The Show Q & A Thread

Just installed the game and only got to play a few innings before life intervened. Can somebody tell me what the rainbow arc in front of fielders is prior to throwing?

Thanks.

Looks like the Phillies, Rangers and maybe Rays decided to blow things up and rebuild. Do you have any idea what their records were?

Re: MLB 13 The Show Q & A Thread

dumb question, but where can I see what type of hitter (PULL/PUSH/etc) my RTTS player is?

I pause it in game, but I don't see it anywhere...?

I know for a fact that the Rays, and Phillies were at least 10 games below .500

Do they really need to be? It is a practice game that does not count.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Q & A Thread

When playing a franchise mode are you able to incorporate the roster updates that are sebt weekly? Last year I restarted my franchise so Darvish and Harper could be added.

I did that and it's still blinking. I cannot get it to stop blinking.

EDIT: Just went and deleted all my messages and it's still blinking.

I finally got it figured out. I'm doing 30 team control for the first time ever and didn't know you had to go and click on the messages for all 30 teams to get it to stop blinking.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Q & A Thread

Can I start and play RTTS without having any fielding plays? If so, how? Thanks in advance, and I know it was possible in previous versions.

Main Menu - User Settings - Mode Specific, set RTTS Fielding Opportunities to None. Same as before.
