Re: MLB 14 The Show Impressions From the Community (PS Vita)
Having every MLB the Show on the Vita with hundreds of hours played on each one. I have to say that I am very disappointed after playing a few games against the computer.
MLB 14 seems to have taken a back seat in a bad way. I don't know if I am the only one that is feeling this way but this game has huge framerate problems that is killing defensive play that the other three didn't have. I can live with a lot of things, but the framerate is really terrible and disappointing. I doubt this can be patched and fixed and I doubt I am the only one seeing this.Whitesox 2005 Champs! -

More impressions
Pitching feels extremely organic as well as the fielding, the hitting mechanics and hit types feel and are great. Catcher animations are totally different this yr. loving everything I'm seeing, can't wait for May 6th though. Thank you SCEA and OS community. San Diego Studios did it again wow.

Re: MLB 14 The Show Impressions From the Community (PS Vita)
^ What camera are you using and what fielding type on defense? I'm trying to replicate what you're seeing.
As for my first few hours I'm enjoying it, the pitch counts are well done, I've had troubles at working the count in previous years, but now this does it for me. I'm still getting used to the new dynamic cameras, but they're good so far. (Just switched offensive back to broadcasting) And I always enjoy the new stances and pitching motions. Especially for my rays players
All in all I have no major conplaints. It's a quality vita sports game(the only quality vita sports game) and I'm sure it will hold me over till May 6th.

So is nobody else seeing frame rate issues that mikelecrenski is raising? If its solid for everybody else, I'll probably pick it up to tide me over until May 6.

Re: MLB 14 The Show Impressions From the Community (PS Vita)
I haven't experienced any framerate drops at all.. The game feels improved in a lot of subtle ways.
+ Bullpen players don't disappear and you can see pitchers warming up while in the outfield.
+ Players / coaches are now visible in the dugout 75% of the time... They still disappear once in a while.
+ The ball shrinks to accurate size after a play (which I think is a good trade off).
+ Quick counts are the best thing ever.
+ No doubter home runs have a close up alternate view which is pretty cool.
+ Batting feels much more natural- and the ball goes where you'd expect it to go based on the contact you made.
+ Ball physics seem improved.
- Chipmunk faces are still in the game... Are you kidding me guys??? Face 1 is the only acceptable face. WHO IS IN CHARGE OF THIS?? PLEASE FIRE THEM.
- The same solo home run bug is still in the game... Every solo home run is listed as 424 feet (this is unacceptable since it was in the game last year).
-Still not enough presentation... Just for giggles, I YouTubed the PSP version of the show in 2009. The commentary and presentation actually blows the 2014 version away.
Having said all that.. I really like it. I've found this version much more immersive than 2013- so it will once again, never be ejected from my Vita.Comment

Pitching is broken right now. Hitters don't swing and miss or chase at all, and meter pitching has no control anymore. Even with maxed out sliders you cannot locate a fastball.PSN: KMRBlue1027

Re: MLB 14 The Show Impressions From the Community (PS Vita)
Just for notes: I did the digital version of the game and played 2 games and tried all 3 cameras for defense and noticed huge framerate drops. I will play some more tonight, but the 2 games I played got very choppy when trying to catch a fly ball or trying to field a ground ball and then throw to first base.Whitesox 2005 Champs!Comment

Has anyone tried out Manage Only Mode with Quick Counts I
on the Vita? If so, how do they work out?Comment

Re: MLB 14 The Show Impressions From the Community (PS Vita)
I completely disagree about the pitching and hitters not swinging and missing. It depends on the pitcher. My first game with Yu Darvish I got a good variety of swing and misses or getting caught looking. I don't use mete pitching. I use analog.
I am once again extremely impressed with this product. The level of details impressive as usual. I would rather answer questions for a few mins.The Sports Preacher

Re: MLB 14 The Show Impressions From the Community (PS Vita)
Bought the Vita version to hold me over until the PS4 version drops. Thus far have only played RTTS. No issues. Fun as ever. I have played the showcase and the first series. I need to slow down so my guy is still in minors on May 6! Will probably wait for franchise until OSFM rosters drop. Will try a couple exhibition games to see how how pitching feels.
Would recommend getting it if you are like me and gave away or sold your PS3 and waiting for the PS4.Comment
