    Re: MLB 2K9 Wish List

    1.) NEW Commentary, drop Jon Miller and Joe Morgan, Pick up Harold Reynolds, Orel Herschiser, and good ol' Jeannie. Fresh lines of dialogue that go deep more like talking about the Whole Baseball organization rather than that specific event.

    2.) Updated and more complexed Stadiums, Progressive Field (Indians) and the left field area is just straight awful compared to real like, Add Led Tickers with chants, Scores and Messages EX; Jenny will you Marry me? Scott G. Stadiums badly lack on scoretrons and led tickers all over. MAKE the OVERALL FIELD SIZE BIGGER WIDER AND LONGER ESPECIALLY the INFIELD

    3.) HD Rendered graphics ,2K7 where about 85-90% and then 2K8 went through a butter churn engine and made everything creamy and crappy looking like play- dough

    4.) LONGER Cutscenes I never skip cutscenes in 2k8 but just because of the lag it skips itself and other things, Have the games be extremly lengthy such as a basic 9 inning game shouble be aroun 1 hour with skipped cutscnenes but 1 hour and 15 mins with out

    5.) with Longer cutscenes should be a sim feature like EA sports super sim where you can sim to the next inning or half inning or a specific players AB,

    6.) update Soundtrack with known artist from the new era, and the 21 century

    7.)Fix the Batting Camera So you can tell a fine line balls, and strikes

    8.) Have Real inside edge numbers if your going to have the feature, let along allow the CPU Pitcher to develope a pitch count without having an annurism stressing to work the count here is the REAL inside edge looks like this :http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/baseball/mlb/07/16/scoutingreport.drew/index.html


    9.) Revamped Challengin AI that is Adaptive, Less home runs, more strategy, Manager Personalities and styles. More arguements, The ability to argue tie in umpire personalities with this,

    10.) Increased Depth with franchise mode, Roster updates with Real Minor leagers, Better all-star weekend activities and and events. IMPROVE the Home Run Derby

    11.) Fans in stadium more of them, less duplicates and tighter more packed stadiums, Dynamic crowds. Custom chants ( Pay-Rod, Pay-Rod)

    12.) Ditch the Meatballs, Up the pitch counts, correct effects on making rountine plays, More mature looking AI and player models, Make AI and player models act like Adults, 3D better dugouts with shots of Manager, players and rants in the dugout (ALA ZAMBAB aka Carlos Zambrano

    13.)Go the route of the 3<SUP>rd</SUP> party for the Sim Engine. If the current system isn’t broken, it’s being held together with duct tape. We need a system that properly handles AI lineups, rosters, rotations and transactions as well as calculates realistic statistics and can properly handle player progression.

    14.) More TV style presentation, a non freezing and non lag Highlight system

    15.) Finally that good ol' MLB Baseball america's pastime tradition feeling

      Oakland A's - Seattle Mariners - Detroit Tigers
      Pittsburgh Steelers - Green Bay Packers

        Re: MLB 2K9 Wish List

        They should also make the camera angles more zoom in behind the pitcher and overall better camera angles. Definately make career mode or make franchises way better and have more control over the team such as spring training and be able to improve a player by bp or something like that. Presentation needs a lot of improvement the home run derby needs a lot more improvement it hasn't changed since like 2k6 same old boring all star weekend.

            NCAAF: Michigan Wolverines

            NCAAB: Cincinnati Bearcats
            NFL: Houston Texans

              Re: MLB 2K9 Wish List

              2k really needs to work on their presentation

              1: Atmosphere
              Crowd going nuts
              teamates celebrating
              walkoff celebrations
              announcers sounding exciting after a walkoff

              2: Presentation
              They NEED to have something like ESPN NFL 2K5

              They should have a baseball tonight program u can watch, or at least have a pregame show like that breaking down the major factors of the game, and im not saying just talking, i wanna see the analyists at a desk, like a tv broadcast........

              3: Playoff Atmosphere
              towels swinging, crowd getting super loud, players sweating, teammate interaction ( high fives, handshakes, standing in the dugout, cheering)

              The crowd, and teammates should be going nuts, if u just hit a walkoff homerun that just won your team the world series

              4: Ads
              teams should have the actual sponsor logos on their uniforms, the playoff logos should be seen on the fields, ads, and on jerseys

              5: All Star Break
              mlb 2k7 and 2k8 had a horrible all star break, the only thing i like is that they have a HR Deby
              There are no announcers, their not wearing the real jerseys, their are no ads, its just like an ordinary game.

                  Re: MLB 2K9 Wish List

                  If I was making the MLB 2K9
                  -I would make improvements in franchise mode. In the college football games you have to convince athletes to come to your school by visits, phone calls, ect. I would like to see something like that incorporated into free agent signings.
                  - teams would have to give up compensation draft picks when they sign type A and B free agents, like real life
                  -You would be able to upgrade the stadium you play at during franchise mode. Sell sponsorships like in Madden
                  - I would update the rosters for the game monthly and give everyone access to it through XBOX LIVE
                  - I would reduce the amount of lag in online play. It is impossible to play because of the lag.
                  - I would make it where you do not have to play everyone in Home Run Derby, just your user controled guy
                  - I would make the crowd go crazy when a closer throws a strike for the home team in the 9th inning. This is realistic.
                  -Every Legends team needs Cal Ripken Jr, Craig Biggio, Barry Bonds, and Jeff Bagwell

                    I'd like a more dynamic coaching system. Rookie coaches need to be created out of randomly selected retired players. Then, rookie coaches would not only be able to "improve" like players, but be dynamic. For example, the same position player could find a job as a hitting coach, base running coach, or manager. Pitchers could be pitching coach or scout. This adds variety to the scouting system. Also, coaching "popularity" should be a factor added in; player popularity and fan popularity.

                    Also, I'd like a "Road to the Show" type deal. Basically, clone Sony's thing. Individual player play, etc.

                    MLB 2K7 features to be brought back:
                    Graphics
                    Cyberfaces
                    1st Person Baserunning

                      Here what 2KSports should add for MLB 2K9. here are additonal changes I want the makers of MLB 2K9 to add 1. Have the real sounds and crowd noise from all the ballparks like the cow belle in Tampa Bay, The Dum guy at progressive field, and the tomahawk chop at turner field just to name a few.

                        Re: MLB 2K9 Wish List

                        I would say that you should make it like MVP baseball, 2005. That was the best baseball game ever made. I found it sad how much better MVP baseball is than 2k8 baseball. Please make it like MVP baseball 2005 Have a Owner mode when you can start with a horrible stadium with no seating and then earn money and buy better upgrades while still paying players. Have a dynasty mode too(Include fantasy draft will both of those) BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU MUST HAVE IS A CAREER MODE(LIKE MADDEN)

                          How about adding a feature like in madden where you can play mini games to gain points to improve your players ratings? I like that feature in madden. This way, you don't have to completely rely on the game to decide how fast your top prospect will improve.

                            Gameplay
                            -Make the pitch count matter - More CPU balls/walks.

                            -CPU Stealing - Non-existent last yr.

                            -Meat pitches - If a curve ball was the pitch then it should hang over the plate, and not turn into a fastball.

                            -I mostly enjoyed pitching, hitting, and fielding, but there is always room for improvement.

                            -PITCHER INJURIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ugh...Rarely would pitchers be injured...This was w/ the slider at 100.

                            Franchise
                            -Rule 5 Draft.

                            -Amatuer Draft in the middle of the yr like it should.

                            -Graded FA's w/ compensatory draft picks; like the real MLB does.

                            -More economics then what we've been accustomed to the last 2 yrs.

                            -Expansion/Relocation and/or ability to build a new stadium.

                            CPU AI
                            -CPU trades toned down...waaay down! Maybe re-write the entire logic that you guys at 2K have had in place since I guess this game was developed.

                            -CPU staff hirings/firings set to a minimum; way too many of these happening thoughout the course of a season.

                              I like the idea of creating a legend and moving through the farm system. But the major thing that would be nice is to make a new game instead of updating roster and slapping a higher number on it. THe last three games feel the same.

                                #1 thing: In Game Modes they should put the Worl Baseball Classic in the game. Be able to play with all the teams. Play in Tokyo, Toronto, Mexico City, and San Juan. Then be able to play in Los Angeles for the next round.


                                the format should be just like this, and play exactly where they play. That is what i want
