[RaychelSnr]

With only a few hours to go, planning out your first moves with MLB: The Show 15 should be a priority. Everyone will have a personal preference, whether it's playing with your favorite team or immediately kicking off "Road to the Show," but there are four things that will be an absolute must to play around with come Tuesday.

Since WSB 2K3, for whatever reason my first game has always been Reds @ Giants in a night game, then Home Run Derby @ Safeco Field. Not about to break tradition now.

I might give Diamond Dynasty a look this year.

One thing I haven't seen yet is the instant replay system.

Surprised by this in the article:

Hitting in The Show is already difficult enough, but with the all new real-time directional hitting mechanic, the learning curve should be a lot steeper.

Haven't played yet, but I thought the Directional Hitting would be easier to use than Zone.

Directional hitting sounds exactly like the controls used in MVP Baseball. If so, that was the best setup for hitting I've ever experienced. With that in mind, it would be way easier than zone hitting which I usually use. Unfortunately I'm not getting The Show this year -- directional hitting was the one thing that was missing IMO from gameplay. The Show now has the best features (2K's hit-and-follow cam when batting) and now the old MVP "Directional hitting" option. Well played SCEA.

I'm going to start up a Twins franchise and play a few ST games in the new minor league ball parks.

Re: MLB 15 The Show: Four Things You'll Want to Try

I will be trying the directional hitting but, as I understand it, if you don't choose a direction then it is basically just Timing hitting mode. So I am not sure that it will be that much harder.

[Lilgoosy]

i think i'll do some friendly matches, to try directional hitting and stuff and then i'll jump right into season mode with my sox on.
first thing i'll do will be trade Victorino to get Hamels cannot wait

[trey2k198003]

i always make myself the ss for the mariners and jump right into franchise mode i want to see the new trade logice but more importnantly i cant wait to port my old RTTS from 14 and see the graphical improvements and playing as well this should be a fun year and hope the radio show will keep me more into playing this game.

I am so pumped to start a franchise with my Chicago Cubs! My big question is if any stability changes have been made to the online. The show is terrible to play online, i hope this issue is addressed.
