The inner picture (the part with the CSN scorebug) is from a real life broadcast. The outer portion is the video game, which is why you are seeing that mix.

The images were overlayed to show how closely they can now match the colors (Ramone explains this at around 8:15 or so).

Yea, it seemed to show where the pitch would end up rather than where you wanted to "aim". I'm sure there's still variations in the location still but it was just something that stood out to me

The price you pay when you get early looks at a work in progress. Don't sweat it.

The only thing I guess I'm disappointed with is directional hitting. I, like many of us on here, were hoping that this would basically be MVP's hitting. It seems to me that this is simply the same thing as guess pitch which is already in the game. I really want the ability to change "where" you are swinging AFTER you press the swing button.

It looks exactly like MVP's hitting to me.

I think you can use it to maneuver where you're guessing prior to the pitch if you want, sort of like pitch guess, otherwise you can just press it in a direction to "go with the pitch" as it's coming to the plate.

That's how it came across to me anyway.

edit: At about 16:35 in the video, you can see that Ramone is still moving the yellow indicators around the strike zone as the pitch is coming in. Even until the last second. Looks like you can look for a pitch in a zone and also "go with the pitch" as well.

This is not the same as guess pitch, watch the stream again!

Like always I will wait to play the retail build and try out all the new features and improvements before passing any judgement or forming any opinion.

I have to play the game to truly form my opinion.

Can't wait till the 31st of March!!!!!! WHOOOOOOOT!!!!!

They want the game as accurate as possible..when you go up to hit you think about where you want to hit it before you swing. Sometimes before you even get in the batters box. You don't swing then as you're swinging decide to push or pull it. I think how they have it is pretty darn good from what they've shown
