    Re: Questions for ASB Man

    1) Will the roster management (trading and signing players) problems, in non-franchise modes, be fixed in ASB 05? Last year it was very hard/near imposible to get the default rosters accurate by making trades/signings without downloading them with a NA, which I don't have.

    2) What's been the major additions to the Graphics and Presentation aspects of the game?

    3) Any word on weither Bary Bonds will be in ASB 05? Now that he's no longer a member of the MLBPA.

    4) Any changes to the commentary this year? I hope it's still Steve and Thom.

    Thanks.

      Re: Questions for ASB Man

      one really important question asb-man. when you're playing online. do you have to use the same camera/hitting/fielding options as your opponent? this is very important to me because i loved the fielding camera and the 3dimensional(analog?) batting style from years past, . i think you mentioned that you do also. although i've been practicing with zone hitting and must admit it feels promising, i'm sure you're aware that you have independent control when playing Madden04 online. but with the espn games you have to use the same camera. it sucks pretty bad when you're stuck with a goofy camera angle that you're not comfortable with. any knowledge on this?

            Re: Questions for ASB Man

            Here's some quick answers...

            There's a pitcher cam

            We've added 40 more pitching deliveries, 40 more batting stances as well.

            A lot of the signing/trading issues in Franchise mode have been fixed.

            There will be the 2nd developer's diary posted in the next week or 2 which tells a lot of the new graphical enhancements.

            We still don't know about Bonds. If by chance he isn't in ASB, you will be able to edit whoever is there and assign them any face/batting stance/number/name/age you want, so...

            We have new commentary by Lyons and Brennaman.

            You don't have the same cameras as your opponent online. When you're pitching, you have the Pitcher POV, while your opponent is seeing the action from the batter's POV. I think you'll like the Fielding Camera after you have played it...but yes, the old cameras will be available.

                  Re: Questions for ASB Man

                  Will there be any celebration after big post-season wins?

                  Will the Expansion mode have new names and/or features?

                  Is there more control over minor leaguers/ability to see minor league stats?

                        Last year when turning off the comentary, the batter walk up was turned off as well. In then years game, will we be able to turn off the comentary and still hear the homerun music and sounds as well as the batter walk up?
                        Thanks

                              Will we be able to turn off the home run cut scenes? Has the crowd been improved?
