Have questions on The Show? Interview Tonight/Question Suggestions Welcome

[Recon]

with the inclusion of GM goals, has there been any thought into the interaction between members of the front office as well as the players similar to what has been done in NBA 2K series.

1. How does the The Show team and/or Sony feel about the live streams done this year? Did they do as well as you would have hoped and is there a strong enough case to do the again next year in a similar fashion?

2. Will we see the addition of catcher's framing pitches in the near future? It has become a big part of the game and with the variable umpires already in the game I feel like pitch framing would be a perfect addition.

nvm, looks like it is after 6pm EST.

This is a good one, pitch framing, pitch calling, and maybe some sort of pitcher confidence rating would be cool to add for catchers. Or maybe a generic Catcher Skills rating to go along with Blocking that would include these items. It would be neat to have a catcher influence a pitcher's performance a little, like in real life.

so yeah, I guess the udnerlying question here for Ramone would be: Have you guys considered adding additional ratings/skills for catchers?

It doesn't even have to affect gameplay at first. Just having the animation in the game on pitches just off the strike zone would be a big step. Eventually I would love to see a framing rating for catcher that affects how large/small the strike zone is for variable umpires. It would be awesome to see some catchers framing constantly and others rarely doing so, based on their rating.

Silly question, but can you make coaches numbers editable with the rest of the team? It bugs me to see coaches w retired numbers, and the same numbers as the player standing next to them.

Unfortunately some things came up and SCEA has rescheduled the interview for Friday. Keep the questions coming in though.

[BDKiiing]

Is there non roster invites, if not is it possible in the future?
