Want people to focus on hitting. Very intrigued on what tweaks they made.

Can't wait for all the "lol Show 17.5" complaints from people who ignored what Ramone said about the game not being close to finished...

Early server testing is a really good idea. Looking forward to seeing what they've done with the hitting too (if I get in, that is). If they plan on really stress-testing the servers there should be a good amount of the MLB '17 playerbase that gets in on this.

They did say earlier that they wouldn’t be giving details on ‘18 until next year. Guess they meant it lol

I don’t play online but this is a great move by SDS

Same, here I dont play online either, not have any interest too, but this does seem to be a good move by them. As long as they arent spending all their time online, instead of working on franchise improvements, that is

Extra Innings being in the beta will allow you to play the CPU, should you get invited to the beta and are interested in doing that.

It's also interesting that they said all 30 teams would be in the beta, except DD was going to be the only available mode. Perhaps we'll have straight-up Vs. CPU available too.

Meh...no information at all about the new game. Just a notice to enlist some people into testing the online aspect of the game. I think Ramone said the word "servers" about 10,000 times in this 10 minute video.

I wonder how good of a server test they will actually get with a non-updated, bare bones version of the game played by only a fraction of the normal users over the Christmas holiday? I mean any QC is better than no QC at all, but I'm not sure it's a fair test either.
