i wouldnt go far as to say it is useless. but considering i played about 100 WSB2k3 games last year with this exact BTP camera angle i feel that it is just a little bit too off-centered and too close to the pitcher. and being too off-centered is what makes it seem unplayable to some because of the flight of the ball when it is pitched. mvp's BTP which is also exactly the same as last year is ironically too far from the batter, and therefore unplayable to some because of the miniture looking strikezone. now ASB's BTP camera has really impressed me. its really like a cross between espn & mvp's. and its a bit more centered than espn and its not too far, its not too close. if you draw a line from the top of the pitcher's hat to the top of the batter's hat, they will be almost even with eachother like espn. this is the problem thats plaguing mvp's camera. draw a line from the top of the pitcher to the top of the batter and you'll notice how low the camera is placed. what mvp's BTP cam has over the others though is its excellent catcher animation. now i wont go ahead and declare ASB's BTP my clear favorite this year though because like i said in another post, the early camera switch when the ball is hit worries me.

The behind the pitcher cam in the demo is useless because it's not actually behind the pitcher. It's behind the pitcher and over too far to the right. Useless. Hopefully it's not like this in the real game.

How is this useless? This is the view you see on every baseball telecast.

Wrong on the money. I don't recall controlling the pitcher or batter on baseball telecasts. This is a video game. Let me repeast that: this is a VIDEO GAME. We *PLAY* it. The camera view should be *PLAYABLE*.Comment

Oh so it's whining to state that the one view you wanted to play from is unplayable. Puhleeze. Grow up and understand that not everyone is going to love EVERYTHING about a game. Some of us actually have valid concerns and gripes.

None of your complaints are valid because you haen't played the game. You're playing a demo that is basically last years' game.Originally posted by BlzerLet me assure you that I am a huge proponent of size, and it greatly matters. Don't ever let anyone tell you otherwise.
If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)Comment
