MLB The Show 18 Gameplay Features Revealed (22 minutes)

If expansion is on the table, I hope retraction is as well.
Cant keep replaying 1960/70/80's classic rosters with 30 teams.

Looks exactly like 17 to me. No improvement to player animations at all, zero, 10 years on next gen and they still cant get players loads and strides mo-capped correctly, they just let them morph into the generic load and stride. Do we at least have correct ball physics this year? Who knows.

Will wait to see more as the release goes forward. I didn't expect too much. Last year's game was awful. This one still looks aged on the graphics front. We'll see.

Something I noticed watching the video was that Jake Lamb's swing was noticeably longer (as was Tomas as well). I don't know if that is incidental, or will be reflected in the options but it's very nice.

Also, I don't have 17 in front of me to compare, but the catcher catching the ball seems a bit more fluid.

And yeah, enough with the pitch outs.

You don’t care where I sent this from

This is the fourth iteration on PS4.. ? I guess you're counting when it came to PS3..

Lol. Didn't take long.

Game is not finished! What we saw today won't necessarily be in the final build. We go through this every year.

Yes there's still time but every year we are told the same thing about this not being the final build and ultimately very little if anything actually changes once the final build is released so I think it's fair to be skeptical, within reason.

Correct. PS3 and PS4 are both considered next gen.
