Re: PS Nation - MLB 14 The Show Hands-On Report (PS3/PS4)

Hmmm, the more I look at these screens I feel like something is strange... Is it just me or do the player models still look current-gen to anyone else? The faces are obviously upgraded, but the neck and arm textures look a little low-res in comparison. It's extremely noticeable in the close ups of Pedroia and Napoli, are the models still a WIP? Or will the new changes to the lighting make a difference?

yea dont think player models were rebuilt for PS4?

Re: PS Nation - MLB 14 The Show Hands-On Report (PS3/PS4)

Only one thing caught my eye that I do not like seeing especially if this is from the PS4 version. Notice in this screenshot the pitchers for the Giants are still sitting in the bullpen. As most know by now probably know the Giants pitchers sit in the dugout with all the other players at At&T park. Only the visiting teams pitchers sit in the bullpen. I was hoping this would be fixed in the PS4 version.

Any idea if this screenshot is from PS3 or PS4?

This is honesty the only negative thing I can see so far from today's news

That's a PS4 shot.

At least I can see the ball boy there!

Oh, and at AT&T Park they have elderly men and women as their ball boys/girls. I doubt that will be reflected here, but that would be hilarious if they actually had that!

Any change there will be the hot blonde ball girl who will field a ball in play, give it to a fan in the stands, then sit back down before she realizes what she just did?

PS4 screenshot. And I noticed this too. I'm sure it is difficult for them because of how the animations work inside the dugout. They would need to dedicate something specific to the Giants in the animations to accommodate this. Hopefully in the future they find a way to change this.

Are you kidding?

May is 3 months away and if it is at the end of the month PS4 owners are looking at nearly 4 months for the game.

I'm no genius by any means, but end of May puts you at 3 1/2 months tops which I highly doubt will be the case. I think realistically we are looking at mid-May.

Now that fans can catch/pick balls it would be cool to see a player about to lean over or jump near a wall to make a catch, only to have a fan steal it away.

'Thank you, Sony for blessing us with a (kind of) release date and a couple screenshots. I can't wait to give you $120, wonderful masters!' Ok, am I still a troll? Should fit right in...

I've never been able to catch those balls near the wall anyway.

That's something no baseball game has really got right yet, because the wrong animations kick in. We're going to have to wait for a different kind of real-time physics system, if you know what I mean.

Looks good, other than the ADD quick counts stuff

Love the beards and all in the PS4 version of the show, but I wonder if there would be an option to take away the beards if we want to.

If paying full price for both games is the case, I will just wait for the PS4 version. Here is to hoping that we get a discount

Metswin-

OK so you are new around here. I get it. This is the most passionate fan base of any game that I play, so I understand your disappointment. I think that I will trust SCEA, and be happy that a May release date means a better product. Nobody is bowing to SCEA. We are critical at times when it is warranted, but to each his own.

Re: PS Nation - MLB 14 The Show Hands-On Report (PS3/PS4)

Yeah that would be cool, but i remember Russell saying in a post on here a bit ago that with throwing in the odd 0-0 or any random count (1-1, 1-0) didnt really speed the game up and that was the goal of quick counts

I know, I read all that, but I'd rather be given the option to have all counts possible (even if its a very low chance) and an even faster option where those counts are removed. It would still speed the game up, just not as much. Some people might have prefered a slightly faster game instead of a faster game. The idea is great, but it won't please everyone, as if anything could.
