MLB 12 The Show Franchise Mode Improvements
 

Playstation.Blog has posted some MLB 12 The Show franchise mode improvements.

Quote:

One of our goals going into this development cycle was to enhance the trade logic for CPU teams to better mimic their real-life counterparts. In order to do so, we had to examine the current system and identify the faults to then build and improve upon it. This year we are considering more factors in each trade offer, with the end result being more realistic trades. Teams are valuing their rosters much higher this year, and they aren’t going to ship out prospects so easily, nor will they offer up too many players to fill a positional void. You’ll also see more trades that better suit the teams’ current strategies (i.e. playoff push vs. rebuilding strategies).

Sounds great, and sounds like they took the perfect steps in making Franchise better. Hopefully Franchise is the talk of the town next year :wave:

But I like what they did with the new interfaces, looks sleeker and has more available info, and the ability to view player cards during games should be/could be very helpful. Nic!

I definitely like what I saw. Hopefully, it all works and all of the bugs are ironed out. I really like the new franchise home interface, and rebuilding vs. contender trade status for teams. An accurate team interest meter for trades is always a great feature as well. I am also really looking forward to the announcers talking about streaks, awards races, slumps, milestones, all-star caliber seasons, etc. within a franchise.

Anyone know if the end of the season award logic is truly accurate this year? I feel like I may have seen that somewhere in one of these threads (maybe that there was a coding problem for it last year and they fixed it now).

I definitely think viewing the player cards during the game will be very useful for late game matchups and pinch hitters/runners. All of the managerial decisions can be based on in game stats/tendencies as well as real life knowledge.

...and in addition to the screen you saw with the attributes....you can flip the card and get the new advanced stats additions to the card for the current season as well.
