It's the same transition no matter what batting camera you use. It's not tied to the batting at all. It's all tied to the "In-Play View Offense" when set to Dynamic which is now the default.

It's such a subtle addition, but absolutely beautiful and immersive. Not exaggerating, it's the one thing I wanted to see in The Show that I thought 2K did better -- and SCEA has delivered.

What concerns me is they've already stated that they maxed out the ps3 console, but previous posts suggest that both versions of the games will be the same( other then graphics) .so does that mean the only thing really getting improved is graphics ? Are they using the ps4 to it's full potential?

I could be way of base here haha but just a thought that came to mind

obviously being a first iteration of the new console, theres no way it will use 100% of the power on PS4. it takes time for the developers, even first and second party developers, to know how to take advantage of the technology. my guess is there will be major graphics upgrade in this years version and they'll continue to refine the physics and engine in the future iterations. this is pretty much the case in most of the next gen sports games so far.

So does that mean that since MLB14/PS3 is not just a new paint job of MLB13, that essentially MLB14/PS4 will just be a better paint job of MLB14/PS3?

I'm not talking about the stadiums themselves, I'm talking about what's outside of the stadiums. Much more visible in the MiLB stadiums, as they have less outfield seating.

The horrible texture resolutions. The cars and busses that are so horrible that they might as well have square tires (actually, they might...). Cars that are horribly scaled against buildings. Hundreds of the exact same trees.


In my opinion, you can make the inside of the stadiums as beautiful as you want, but if the backdrops are eyesores...

It better come with 18" wheels and lots of chrome.

I think this is where the PS3 memory limitation conversations come into play.

Obviously some of you have not been following this thread as a developer has stated on more than one occasion that the PS3 version WILL NOT be a paint job.

Don't know if you were referencing me or not, but my update talk was only in reference to Franchise mode. I haven't seen any info on updates to that mode which is why I said "hopefully there is news on that" coming in the future. I don't recall any major updates if any to the mode at all in '13.

Online Franchise so far this year though

I'm sure a ton of people on here like this feature (me included) I'm jumping to the PS4 and as far as I know it's gone (for now) hopefully they add more in game music (like they already have hip hop, modern rock, country etc.....) if they can add more variety to that and make it sound decent I can live with it.

Me too. Getting kind of tired of the PC Richard Michael Kay SO call anyway.

We havent seen any info on updates in any mode.

Nothing has been said officially. Everything so far is based off of about 2 min worth of gameplay captured by the users iPhone.

If you're concerned about 14 being a paint job just buy the game used at GS. If you don't like it return it within 7 days. No harm no foul.

Does that means that the development of the ps4 version is going to be a lot better than what is expected for the first game on a new system???? or just plain and simple "common sense" that it takes a few years to be able to harness all the potential of a new system?

My thoughts agree somewhat in the paint job comment, but theres no doubt the PS3 version will still get many changes, these guys arent in the business of putting out $60 roster updates.

Not to knock at all, it still looks good and im sure will still be an excellent game, but it does look eerily similar in many ways to '13, and i believe thats because of time restraints due to the PS4 taking up so much dev time and resources.

I honestly get the feeling the PS4 version is going to blow us away looks wise, and may even have a totally different scorebug, on screen text, pretty much everything to differentiate it as the king from its little brother.

Now we simply have to be patient for PS4 media, but yes, it is a painful wait but it will be worth it in the end

It looks like 13 because 13 probably represents about all they could get out of the PS3. Any improvements they make will be welcome. I'm satisfied with 11-13 so I plan on supporting all the work they've done and will buy 14.

I haven't had a chance to watch the whole video since I'm at work, but what I saw of the presentation looks like a nice update from last year. The menu reminds me a lot of how other sports games have gone with the whole tiled menu system. I hope its smooth to navigate. Glas some footage and info has finally come out, hopefully more starts coming in.

It means while the ps4 will be impressive and there will be a lot of cool things that weren't possible on the ps3, there is no way it will be maxed out (or using the full potential) this year. Just like how when they went to the ps3 it got better and better each year, we will see the same with the ps4. We should still be very excited for the ps4 version this year and I'm sure it'll blow us away, but there's no way they used all of it's abilities in the very first development cycle.
