Wow, awesome!!

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

Now if only roster makers could scan pictures of players.... Every minor leaguer in the game would be so realistic!!

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

I think we now know what was blacked out on the feature premiere schedule. :)

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

This is really an awesome feature. It sounds like the face scan feature may be limited to our one RTTS ball player (my player).

It would be great if we could use this function with photos of historic or minor league ballplayers to also add them to the game.

Now who’s gonna scan Barry Bonds..

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

Man that would be a disappointment if this is only for RTTS...

Asking as I dont know, the other games with face scan import... Is it only for MyPlayer modes or w/e you want to call them?

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

Based on the way they spoke about it in that video, it seems it is definitely limited to the RTTS player / DD. Bummer, I was pumped this would bring some extra realism to franchise rosters. Oh well, maybe next year, right?

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

Was my first thought, too. EA was on to something with their Gameface feature back in the day. I used it in the old Tiger Woods games, but maybe it made its way to others, too - not sure. Shame no one adopted that idea. Creating legends via photos on your computer would be AMAZING for retro roster folks.

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

It is on EA's Fight Night Champion and is one of the features that kept a game from 2011 still playable. Screenshot a front and side pic of someone with an ipad and there you go. Great feature.

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

Fingers crossed its in all modes

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

Who? Oh, Reggie Stocker you mean.

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

They say it will be your centralized ballplayer. So it will be for RTTS and DD only.

Still an interesting feature. Something like nba2k has or used to have. Don't know if they still do.

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

He's still Jon Dowd to me, damnit!

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

whoever does it, I hope they get a young Pirates Bonds and not fat Vegas Elvis Bonds

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

Cool feature. I hope it works as well as they say because I'm skeptical that it can get an accurate scan of head and face shape from a single head-on photo. Maybe there's more to it but this video seems to imply otherwise. Also this is a huge missed opportunity if its only for RTTS and cant be applied to custom players in Franchise.

And while we're at it, since we're uploading photos, let us upload logos for custom teams!

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

I called him Jon Dowd back in the day....

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

When I saw the face scan thumbnail on Youtube I was sceptical. Then they showed you can upload images and I got a little hyped but after all the talking about RttS and DD I'm sure this is a MyPlayer only feature. Neat but missed opportunity.

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

This app will create a new wave of “papparazi” baseball star chasers :y15:

Isn’t NBA2k who had this kind of feature few years ago ? Wasn’t too convinced of the quality generated tho. Well, maybe the app was good and I’m just that ugly :nocomprende:

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

Pretty sure I heard the dude say w/e mode you play vs CPU... Did anyone else hear that?

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

If you watch close enough, they show a quick snapshot of the ballplayer selection screen as well as the start career screen. So it is definitely only for those modes.

That also made it sound as if any future scan you do replaces the previous.

There is also a reason it is announced the week of the RTTS feature premiere.

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

Really happy they added this but if it's not something that can't be done for all modes, that's kind of a bummer. My hope would be that you could do it for any created player. It's still a good thing to have added, nonetheless. It's funny because I just played TW 14 the other day and my face scan is still on my guy in career mode ha. I think I have one for FIFA World Cup Brazil 2014. I decided to play that a few years ago and I think it popped up.

It's kind of ridiculous that games back then had it but there's so few games now that do.

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

this would be good if it was unlimited, but my guess is you can only make 1 face scan for the entire roster. how cool would it be if we could put a scan in for all players without one. I doubt we will have that many options though.

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

This is a great start to have this feature. I've been wanting to put my ugly mug in the game for years now [emoji16]

Yea sounds like it will be just like nba2k where you scan is for myplayer. WWE is the only game I have seen where you can scan in pictures of people.

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

Which baseball game was this feature on before, was it the Show?

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

I don't know about baseball but wasn't it on EA boxing Fight Night?

EDIT: ok, looking back, you could face scan yourself into 989's last MLB 2005 and Show 06 through Show 09

so it actually isn't a new feature but a returning one

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

I echo these comments 100%. One thing I thought of how awesome would it be to import minor leaguers AND my college roster players.. I would be in heaven.

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

Damn, I was 100% sure to not buy this game but just with this feature i'm thinking on buying it......

Re: MLB The Show 23 Adding Face Scan Feature - Tips Included
 

They should also use it for logos and patches on sleeves. Endless possibilities I'm hoping they will allow us to use it in franchise.

Now that we have the face scan feature there is even more reason for SDS to add back in as many of the last names as possible that were lost with the switch to a new broadcasting team. I am one of those whose last names were lost in the transition.

I hope it has a aging program. Im going to look funny as a 50 yr old face playing as a 18 yr old :lol::baby::y220d:

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

Totally off-track, but this is something that semi-bugs me about cyberfaces in general across the sports genre. I'd personally rather see all editable faces but totally appreciate the opposition from the majority of games that this would entail.

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

The video showed you can edit anything but head shape.

Maybe just find a photo of an 18 year old you and use that lol.

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

MLB 06 introduced a similar system using the EyeToy

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

as long as you have an 18 year old heart, its okay to have a 50 year old head & body lol

Re: MLB The Show 23 Adding Face Scan Feature - Tips Included
 

curious if i can scan my 4 month old son, it would be cool to have a baby face ball player with no teeth lol

Re: MLB The Show 23 Video - New Face Scan Feature
 

Finally!!! About damn time should have been done years ago.

Re: MLB The Show 23 Adding Face Scan Feature - Tips Included
 

Boston already has a baby face assassin.
except he's got his teeth lol

Re: MLB The Show 23 Adding Face Scan Feature - Tips Included
 

Would love to have a create a coach/manager feature in the show similar to Madden and use this feature in franchise mode.
