Exactly my thoughts! Please prioritize what NEEDS to be improved, not some temporary VR gimmick! Remember the 3D hype?

Old Hickory bat being used by Goldschmidt, by the way... Maybe I'm late to the party on that, maybe it was already a known new brand?

Ok I may need to eat my words perhaps.

Take a look at this hit into the right field corner at the 3:32:54 Mark

The batter was easily thrown out at second so yes even in real life it happens!

What is Perez speed rating?

Maybe the issue in MLB The Show is just that the outfielders make to many perfect and hard throws like that Heyward throw to much in the game?

If anything I am praying for a high five in one of those new 1,000 animations added!

In the videos shown I have seen runners crossing home plate and tapping their helmets only to walk right by the next guy in the batters box and dugout like nothing happened! Since MLB 14 on PS4!


If there are high fives for things like moving over a runner and bunt sacrifices. I will get a little excited players are still leading off the same (based on video shown) add personality to that it will help make the game for more dynamic instead of scripted!

But I am still hoping for player locked defensive improvements!
I agree would love to see more player interaction especially in the dugout I am sure most people won't really care as a lot of people like to skip cut scenes but that stuff adds to the game for me.

Yeah I'm willing to guess we'll see it both ways and that we're just catching the hard throw in these videos... if it's tweaked according to player speed and fielder's arm strength I may just lose it..I'd love to have to keep in mind who's in right to avoid creating a "don't run on gerardo parra!" Moment.

Re: IGN MLB THE SHOW 17: GAMEPLAY CHANGES EXPLAINED!

Nice video..have to disagree with IGN guy though. Although the Greinke delivery is nice overall, he does not hold his leg raise that long before releasing the ball. And when he was a Dodger it was even less than as a Dback. Perhaps that's why his ERA was inflated last year?
