Some MLB 2K13 Features Revealed, First Screenshot Included

[celtics6]

maybe it will be a blessing that they don't have a lot of time to overhaul anything where they just fix the bugs and clean up some of the visual miscues. 2k12 played fun imo but was just missing that extra polish. I would be more than happy with just a polished version of 2k12 to end this gen.

I hope they fix the framerates and clean up the swing animations. I also hope they finally fix the stand animations when crowds go for the ball. Add some more fielding animations and add mroe celebrations and personality to the game. Where this game really suffers is the in between stuff. I don't see why they can't fix this stuff in 2 months.

2k at its core is a solid baseball game and plays well. I've never been someone who needs the latest adn greatest in graphics. I just want a polished fun game to play.

I've always enjoyed 2k for it's fun factor. It's more the polish and I wish the game had more personality.

Good teams. Throw in the '93 Blue Jays to match up against them.

I was thinking, with 42 coming out, maybe we throw in a matchup like this.

'51 Giants (Thomson, Mays, Irvin, Maglie, Stanky, Mueller)
'51 Dodgers (Robinson, Snider, Campanella[injured], Newcombe, Reese)

We get Ebbets Field and the Polo Grounds to play the entire 3 game series.

Also, how about '61 Yankees (Mantle, Maris, Ford, Berra, Howard), '61 Tigers (Kaline, Lary) and maybe throw in the '66 Orioles (Robinson, Robinson), and maybe the '60 Pirates (Mazeroski, Clemente, Groat, Hoak, Burgess),

We get the original Yankee Stadium, Tiger Stadium, and Memorial Stadium. So, with that, we are looking at a list like:


'51 Dodgers (Robinson, Snider, Campanella, Newcombe, Reese)
'51 Giants (Thomson, Mays, Irvin, Maglie, Stanky, Mueller)
'60 Pirates (Mazeroski, Clemente, Groat, Hoak, Burgess)
'61 Yankees (Mantle, Maris, Ford, Berra, Howard)
'61 Tigers (Kaline, Lary)
'66 Orioles (Robinson, Robinson)
'80 Phillies (Schmidt, Bowa, Rose, Matthews, Maddox, Carlton, McGraw
'93 Phillies (Daulton, Dykstra, Schilling)
'93 Blue Jays (Carter, Henderson, Alomar, Molitor, Morris)
'94 Expos (Pedro, Moises, Grissom)
'95 Indians (Thome, Manny, Belle, Martinez)
'95 Mariners (Griffey, Edgar, Buhner, Randy)
'95 Braves (Glavine, Smoltz, Maddux, Chipper, Justice)
'98 Yankees (Jeter, Bernie, Tino, Pettite, Mo all in their prime)
'99 Braves (Andruw, Chipper, Javy, Glavine, Smoltz, Maddux)
'00 Mets (Piazza, Leiter, Hampton)
'01 Yankees (Last year of the old guard)
'01 Diamondbacks (Schilling, Johnson, Gonzalez)
'02 Athletics (Hatteberg, Hudson, Zito, Mulder, Dye, Tejada, Ellis)
'03 Yankees (Jeter, Pettitte, Clemons, Mo, Posada, Bernie, Boone)
'04 Red Sox (86 years, Damon w/ beard, Manny, Ortiz, Pedro)
'05 White Sox (90 years, Konerko, Dye, Buehrle)
'06 Mets (Delgado, Pedro, Glavine, Wagner)
'06 Cardinals (Edmonds, Pujols, Carpenter, Eckstein)

And with those teams, you get the following stadiums:

Ebbets Field
Polo Grounds
Forbes Field
Original Yankee Stadium
Tiger Stadium
Memorial Stadium
Veteran's Stadium
Olympic Stadium
Kingdome
Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium
Old Yankee Stadium
Shea Stadium

+Previous stadiums used in 2k, including:
Griffith Stadium
Shibe Park
Sportsman's Park
Crosley Field
Cleveland Municipal Stadium

If we can get at least a chunk of that, we got a very good game

How could you mention the 61' Tigers and not mention Rocky Colavtio, Norm Cash, and Jim Bunning?

Let's add the '01 Mariners (116 Win Season, 8 All-Stars, All-Star Game IN Seattle. Featured Players: Rookie Ichiro, Boone, Cameron, Moyer, Older Versions of Edgar and Buhner.)

Didn't see these teams so I would like to see the following added:

1982 Atlanta Braves
1984 Chicago Cubs
1984 San Diego Padres

Add Fulton County Stadium as well.

If they fix the bugs in MLB Today and clean up some of the animation, it will be a great game. I play both baseball games and both are great in their own way.

What is the over/under on the number posts it will take for every team ever to be requested by someone or another?

When it comes to 2k baseball yes, but if you look at NBA 2k they make changes year in and out to really improve the game.

They release a screenshot to grab your attention but they cant even get that right. No fans on the Green Monster...passing on this game this year, itll be the same stuff as last year
