Re: Rangers Uniforms

On topic: The Rangers have blue as their official undershirt. That uniform was meant for blue undershirts; it goes with the blue lettering and every other uniform except for the red jerseys. I know that the last time I got a sneak peak, this is the way it was in the style guide.

Off topic: This quote boils my blood:

I just don't like how the SCEA team is stubborn in regards to not fixing these obvious mistakes. Some of these are just simple color changes, but they just throw their hands in the air and walk away from fixing these graphical errors.

SCEA has gone out of its way to create quite possibly the greatest Baseball game ever. The feel of the game is amazing, and the graphics are incredible. Every year when they could rest on their laurels they go all out and put something amazing in the next version. It doesn't always work out; the commentary is lacking and the meatball first pitch bug nearly broke the game for me, but they are making the effort to change things up and they have put out some great patches.

So why do some people continue to use terms like "laziness" and "walking away" when it has been said by Community Day people that they have to follow on what Baseball give them? It's insulting to the developers of this game to say that they don't care when they are doing everything in their power to make this game right.

I've seen SCEA have to deal with the Style Guide before. The Rangers had those God-awful two-toned helmets for three years that never saw the field of play. SCEA's hands were tied; they were in the Style Guide when the helmets were never worn. This is true of a number of teams; that's why a number of undershirts and socks don't match up. So what if the other game has is right? They are looking at not having a next year and not having to explain why they are breaking their licensing agreement. SCEA is in a whole other boat, and I would rather follow the Style Guide than to have any risk of licensing being pulled.

Sure, a part of the blame is style guide... but I can't help but think the laziness attached to not willing to fix it is the same laziness attached to why the uniforms are wrong in the first place

After all we have from this development team, this quote is the most ignorant quote I've ever seen on these boards. For shame.

There's a glitch in the game where the road numbers show up on the road alternate. All people have to do is just choose the home alternate.

Re: Rangers Uniforms

I will quote Russell on the issue of uniforms....

What you guys fail to continually realize is that our artists do not watch baseball games for reference. They only look at the style guide. It's their job to go by the style guide and nothing else....

Well with that said, I'm going to close my mouth.

Re: Rangers Uniforms

I thought the workaround for the Nationals would be that you could wear the road throwback pants in away games. The socks are RED!! Unfortunately, since they are throwbacks, all high socks are stirrup socks. Strasburg looks silly. Criminy! Ha.

Re: Rangers Uniforms

I am one of the people that does understand that. Honestly.

That's why I stated earlier that some errors are just art work errors on behalf of the SCEA team. I'm not going to list each one that is an artwork error unless anyone actually wants a list?

I can't remember which thread it was in but I remember you were part of the discussion Curahee in which Russell stated "We didn't have a blue Jays alternate jersey to match the blue and had to go off images"

That doesn't tie up with following the style guide. I have seen the style guide for The jays and let me tell you it is more accurate than what is represented. The jays colour isn't the only one that is off but again I won't list them here.

Now I do realise that is a small issue but there are many small artwork issues regarding uniforms that are NOT down to the style guide.

These are just small issues to a lot of people but they are issues nonetheless. I hate the " who cares about graphics etc as long as the gameplay is good" argument. In that case who needs a MLB licence as long as the game plays good? Why can't we have excellence in all departments?


To me the Show needs to get to the next level regarding authenticity and accuracy in its uniforms, stadiums and artwork in general.

The PS4 will hopefully deliver.

So you have seen the style guide for this year? How?

Re: Rangers Uniforms

Don't even get me started on the Cubs Road Alternate Jerseys again...that COULDN'T have been the style guide because they have NEVER worn and never will wear uniforms like that...

Frankly I'm tired of the style guide coming up every time someone mentions a wrong uniform. People can believe what they want but as the poster I quoted said, there are uniforms worn in this game that have never been worn in real life. What baffles me is if the style guide is the end all be all why don't teams in real life have to follow it?

And if some of the problem is artwork then it really doesn't add up. If scea must follow the guide word for word then incorrect artwork on the uniforms would be breaking the rule because the uniforms wouldn't match the style guide.

Do you not read the thread? It's been said their have been items in the style guide the teams never actually used, like those 2 toned ranger helmets

The style guide is more for the media which will tell them which fonts and such they are gonna use for the year. As for why teams don't follow it then I don't know. Could be several reasons.

Yea, I've read the thread and I've been reading the same type thread since 2008 and I'm saying why the contradictions. If its artwork then scea isn't following the style guide, if the reason is that the style guide is wrong then why would they make scea follow it but not other baseball games? Why in real life do they not follow the style guide? Mlb wouldn't have a style guide that is not correct. Just wouldn't happen

All I'm saying is there are things in the Show that are wrong.

I hate to call you out here, but I know youre not being truthful.
The Blue Jays do not have a uniform in the style guide.
Thats why SCEA doesnt "have a Blue Jays Jersey" to follow.

Please dont try and back up an argument with misinformation.

Your unbreakable loyalty is admirable but flawed.

I actually didnt say there was a jersey so maybe before calling me out read the post. Twice if you need time to take it in.

I'm not banging on the game or developers. I'm just saying there are errors that are not style guide related.

I can post up a pic of 4 (four) errors on the Athletics yellow jersey alone if you like? You can then dissect it and tell me I'm wrong and its all style guide if you like?

Umm. Yeah, actually you did.....

I have seen the style guide for The jays and let me tell you it is more accurate than what is represented.

You have not seen the style guide for the Jays. If you did, then you would know that it doesnt exist.
And thats why SCEA doesnt have the correct color.
I will not continue this argument.
The reasons have been stated by the Devs many many times. If you want to call them liars or lazy or incompetent or color blind or whatever, thats on you.

Have a blessed day.
