1. Can you have quick counts just for pitching or just hitting or when it's on it's for both?
2. Can you toggle quick counts on and off while in game? Perhaps I want to speed through the first few innings or so, I would have QC on but when it's late in the game I may want more control with each at bat so I would just turn off quick counts.

QC has to be for both, and once you turn it on for a game it stays on.

Will i be able to play quick counts in online ranked games or online exibition games . or another online vs game that counts towards stats and records. thnx im mostly online player and like the quick count idea just not sure it applies to the way i play.

Russell said it was available for online franchise, but no word on other online game modes. Hopefully not as it would be a quick way to boost universal profile XP and maybe "stubs"?

They could have easily balanced the XP and Stub system to account for that.

I agree QC's should stay out of ranked modes like DD. But for unranked lobby matches or challenges, if both players agree to use QC's I don't see the issue.

It would be awesome to toggle the quick counts on and off. I could see getting a lot of use out of using the quick counts early innings and then playing the last three or four innings completely. Very good point.

Also would be nice to split the pitching and hitting QC. Maybe something for The Show '15 that they could do.

Better editing tools? I don't give a toss but I respect why you might want it.

The show is so great already that it allows some people to see some small things that might need improved in future. Look at some things that they have put into the PS4.

"Light Reflecting off individual blades of grass"
"Ball boys"
"Crazy amounts of beard hair"

Are all of these things necessary? No absolutely not but they add to an already great game. In my opinion the uniforms could be improved from the stills I have seen so far (maybe too early to judge).

Better cloth physics.
More realistic script and logo material.
Correct scale logos and piping.

These are all little things in my opinion that could be improved. Those are not just complaints for the hell of it. Just opinions. You might have a different opinion. It's not wrong.

If it wasn't for all of these so called "complainers". We wouldn't have the amazingly detailed game we have today and that includes that very unnecessary but beautiful grass that improves the game.

Most of the time people are polite and respectful when giving constructive criticism, yet the usual suspects come in and shoot them down. They then band everyone who says the slightest thing down about the Show together as some kind of losers who should just sit down and shut up.

Yes the devs are the best out there.
Yes it's the best sports game if not game out there.

Can it be improved?

I agree with you. My only point was let's wait until we get more than just a few screenshots to judge from.

There is a distinct difference between "complaints" and "constructive comments".
Yet very few people seem to know the difference and dont know when the horse is dead.

I assume you're talking about me, and f you are, you're very off base

My comments were very constructive, I provided plenty of examples, pictures and sound explanations for what I thought was wrong and how it could/should be improved. My comments were far from complaints, it was constructive criticism.

As for the part about beating the dead horse, if people are commenting towards me and asking questions, then I'm obviously going to answer. So I don't see the point about beatig a dead horse at all. If that's the case, then everyone in this thread contributed to "beating the horse."

Not touchy at all, I just feel like some people seem to get really emotional when someone has a gripe with the game, so I feel the need to explain myself.

Also, can't let it go if people keep commenting about it, it doesn't work that way.

No I wasnt talking about you specifically which is why I didnt quote you. I was speaking about complainers in general, but if you want buy the shoes and take them home, thats up to you.

Fair enough, but it was a fair assumption, considering how this thread has gone

I would never attack anyone for their opinion, no matter how off the wall I may think it is.
Everyone has the right to their opinion and the right to express it.
Even if they think this game is trash. (Not saying you do or did).
Although, that type of opinion really doesnt belong here and will be met with major opposition.

The problem is when people take their opinions to another level. Almost to a level of Gospel.
Because you thought it, it must be divine and everyone else is from the pits of hell. Thats where I take exception.
And to go even further, while you are allowed to have an opinion, others should also be allowed to have an opinion on your opinion.

State your opinion. State why you came to that view and allows others to share, rebut or refute, then let it go and move on to the next subject. Dont take it so personally.

Not just YOU......... EVERYONE!
