tv type has zero to do with game frame issues

- throwing meter is harder, I'm still getting used to it.
- bat sounds are nice
- playing on Balanced (1440p), colors seem to pop more and graphics overall seem a little sharper than 19. Maybe all in my head
-soundtrack is horrible. Will be loading up a USB stick with 50+ of my own songs to load Sounds of the Show when I get a chance today.
-Still feels like The Show, but the minor improvements/changes to gameplay all seem positive so far.
- minor leaguers are pretty hit and miss in this initial roster update. Hard to tell who is real and who is fake. Many players appear to have no name audio assigned (though this is editable in these players).

I've only played a few M2O games so far, so very limited sample, but I feel like everything in 20 is a lot faster and smoother than 19.

The sound of the ball off the bat is incredible this year. You can really tell if someone got a hold of one or not. To add to the bat sounds, it seems that there's better hit variety as well.

Button accuracy is very fast compared to 19 and will take some getting used to but I love that it adds a challenge to fielding this year.

Will add more impressions after I play some more over the weekend.

Brooooo! Yeah, I got some hits though. Most of them were grounders. And I’m playing as the Twins. So it was definitely odd that I couldn’t make solid contact. Also, I strictly use normal swing only as I feel that’s more balanced. But I got around 8-9 hits on both games with 1 run each. Hopefully today is better for me.

Let’s face it, if you are asking the question you already know the answer. Hurry up and download it!

I Did it last night because I could afford to not because I needed any of the bonuses. But, the primary reason was to play early and I did not mind contributing to, who I think is the best developer out there along with the 2K outfit

This is my first time playing MLB the Show, so im coming from a different place than most.

But here i my initial impressions.

1. BEAUTIFUL GAME. Just gorgeous. All the little details and animations are incredible.

2. Base running seems to be more complicated and difficult than it should be.

3. I really like the fielding throw meter. For the first time ever, over throwing the first baseman and pulling him off the bag feels organic and not random.

4. I really like zone hitting. The variety of hits ive seen so far has been great.

5. I dont really like any of the pitching interfaces. Ive never liked the pitching meter and classic seems too random and mindless. Pulse and analog are the ones that ive been using. Both are "okay".


Overall, this game is really fun to play. So far its one of the best baseball games ive played.
