OMG the fans finally can catch the ball!

Whosever job was to animate the ballboys/girls deserves a raise.

Those little babystep duckwalk movements they do when running towards a ball is spot-on.

A couple of bugs I have found which I reported one in the bug thread but found another now.

The first was an 0-1 pitch to my hitter where i checked my swing and the ball was low and handled by the cpu catcher turned into a throw out at first base as my hitter ran towards first as if it was an 0-2 pitch that got away from the catcher. It was 0-2 after that pitch and the scoreboard read 0-2 and Harvey went to the next batter with just 2 pitches thrown. It was the start of the game.

Now I just saw another where I hit a liner towards the right field corner fair and the outfielder. ran it down quick to hold me to a single but his momentum took him to the side pad in the foul line which I stayed on first and got no single. It was ruled an error for that

One thing I hope they do look at for future versions are injuries to pitchers.
While hitting them does seem to be toned down, when they do get hit not to see them go off injured is somewhat disappointing.
I just damn near tore Matt Shoemakers pitching arm off with a line drive which had it happened in real life would have put him out indefinitely, but instead he chased the loose ball and fired a rocket to first base...iI suppose I should be thankful I beat out the throw..

The camera cut scenes and presentation changes are really really well done and helps it feel way more like a real baseball game. I also really love the lisenced equipment. The shadow jaggies in certain cut scenes from last year are completely gone as far as I can tell. The framerate dips a little in cuts scenes still but no where near as bad as last year. Almost not even noticiable.

Biggest dilemma so far is a roster issue. The default ones are terrible IMO. I loaded my franchise from 14 but there are so many face scans missing. (Eg. Marcus Stroman Aaron Sanchez Donald Pompey) Stroman and Sanchez face scans in particular look awesome. Im probably gonna have a mess around franchise and then start fresh when the roster makers finish their thing.

Everything about gameplay is better it's probably not going to be enough different for some but Im absolutely loving it

In all my years of playing The Show I have never robbed someone of a HR. Well here is my first with none other than Puig. Game is awesome!!!
