Re: MLB The Show 16 Trailer, Josh Donaldson is the Cover Athlete

Me, imo, they dont really need to add much to the game. Just smooth some things over to make it more organic and more sim. Adding these extras and arcadey stuff isnt really needed. They have a really good franchise mode that I love. I would rather see that improved ie: more organic baserunning, pitchers stanima more realistic, more stats, better trade logic, more indepth MoM, the ability to see energy levels in the rotation and lineup screens instead of right before the game screen, and etc.

Madden get rid of the extras (SS/XF, HFA, media, scenarios, game plan) or turn them down considerably.

Just have fun and play :)

Now if they've revamped STATS and if that "Conquest Mode" looking thing is actually there to add depth to franchise mode...hoo boy. That spells pre-order for me. The "Conquest Mode" is probably it's own mode though.

More Streamlining, and more Arcadey gameplay.

This is a trend now.
How in the world did you get arcadey gameplay from that one quote? People already with the Chicken Little reactions.

No, it's clear from this early pre-beta footage that the game is both broken and unplayable.

I didn't get it from the quote. I got it from watching the trailer showing off the new "Showtime" feature during actual gameplay.

Maybe you haven't seen it yet?

It's the definition of "arcadey". Basically a slow motion quick-time event with on screen button prompts. During fielding and hitting from what they have shown.

But how am I supposed to have stone-wall up the middle defense if you guys improved hits back at the pitcher?

To be honest, this vid didn't blow me away. Lost of similarities from last year. Gonna wait till I see what other modes are being introduced before I get to low or high. Excited for what's in store

Looking forward to see more of what's to come.

One minor thing (not sure if it's been noted), but at the 0:25 mark in the HD video you can see the 2nd base umpire wearing long sleeves. I think that's new?
