Therefore there are going to be things that don't get as much attention as maybe we as the gamers would like.

A team of eight or not, there should be no chance some random shin guard or 3rd alternate BP jersey takes priority over building an accurate face for an MLB All Star in this game.

C'mon how many other manufacturers can charge us $60.00 to purchase their product and then claim low staff numbers when the product's accuracy or effectiveness is called into question?

All for Trout being on the cover. He's one of the few guys that got me back into baseball after the steroid nonsense.

I bet they could get Barry Bonds in the game now that he seems to be trying to rehabilitate his image. Heck he's even at Spring Training right now!

Yes in case others were wondering coaches can get scans too. If they don't want to be scanned there's nothing SCEA can do about it.
Okay i understand Gibbons hasn't been scanned but his character looks nothing like him. I'm guessing the majority of players arent scanned but they come close to looking as real as possible. So why not Gibbons?

He was the Marlins hitting coach in the past (Before his Manager got him fired for being Barry)....its not like it should be surprising that he's at Spring Training.

Just a guess, but I have to assume thier is money involved. Its possible with all of the additional revenue Sony San Diego has generated from DD, they came to the conclusion it was worth paying Trout's price.

I could be way off, maybe players can't even charge for face scans. It would just make sense with the timing of it happening after a huge cash flow year with MLB the Show 16.

This is also why Franchise players like myself and gamers that love other modes should be hapoy with the success of DD. Its only going to give them more resources to make the game better moving forward. And they have already proved they have the work ethic and drive to take advantage of their growing profit margins. The future of the Show looks very bright.

I feel like they just don't work on coaches as intently as they work on players. I've never seen a coach that doesn't have a face scan look good in this game. Most without a face scan have actually looked atrocious and nowhere close to accurate no matter who the coach or how long he's been there. For coaches it seems to be face scan or bust.
