MLB '10: The Show Screenshots, Batch #2 (Pasta Padre)

Re: MLB '10: The Show Screenshots, Batch #2 (Pasta Padre)



I appreciate SCEA's work but the shade of green in the LaPorta pic is not even close to the pic above....and no led scoreboard is a big disappointment for us Indians fans...maybe next year. It doesn' appear they worked on this stadium since 07??

[smearz]

all you guys complaining about your stadiums not being exactly perfect to real life.... I'm just wondering - does Progressive Field or GABP having LED scoreboards help you hit against good pitching on higher difficulties? or does it keep the CPU from putting up a 4-spot on you in the 6th inning? I know we all want perfection for our teams, but for sh*t's sake... you can't even see 95% of these details when you're playing the game anyway, and the fact that they spend as much time and effort on stadiums as they do already astounds me. Be happy. Play baseball. Hit a homerun on Legend difficulty in your RTTS.... you'll forget about the LED scoredboards. Trust me.

Actually no I won't, because my homer will be soaring over a 6-year-old stadium setup... If there is a team dedicated to stadiums, and there is (stadium artists I have seen them called) then I expect that team to stay up to date on these changes. If this is a 2010 game I want a reflection of that environment.

Imagine if the Dbacks were playing in teal and purple, people would be up in arms. No different as far as I am concerned.

Re: More Pasta Padre Pics

Agreed, also the walls in Progressive still appear with that cartoony staled out green color instead of a solid green.

The biggest reason I hated playing at Progressive Field and Fenway Park last year. It looks awful (the wall color, that is).

But that's why I'm going to be my Giants! (lol sorry wrigleyville)

Yankee Stadium looks beautiful in that shot! A little paled out, but that's just their palette... hopefully that will be tweaked year after year. I know we haven't seen too many twilight shots, so I wonder if they worked on that transition at all. Last year it was a bit wonky, albeit a great first attempt.

Re: More Pasta Padre Pics

I would be happy to go through each stadium and make a list of tweaks that need made. I spent four years making these changes to MVP 05 for the PC and have visited the majority of the ballparks in the game. I have the resources and time to do this if SCEA is willing to listen.

Doesn't mean it's going to get in, sorry.

Maybe he should be added to the group that Sony brings in and let him help them correct things. That would be more constructive.

It still doesn't mean it will get in. Just the way it is.

Incorrect uniforms are a very different issue. You see it every single second of the game. But let's say you're facing CC on a higher difficulty, in Progressive field. in your ABs, are you really that concerned that the scoreboard is a normal digital scoreboard versus an LED display? really? If you can manage to have good ABs against that slider and fastball all the while wondering what would it be like with proper LED scoreboards to distract you a little bit more, than more power to you, my friend.

Re: MLB '10: The Show Screenshots, Batch #2 (Pasta Padre)

The points are moot.

My point remains, when SCEA gets something right, they're the best, when they can't get something, they are "ignoring us". These people bend over backwards for Operation Sports and the gamers here. You can either enjoy the game, and hope they get it in next year, or......

Adding things to certain stadiums might work and might not, depending on the amount of effort and whether or not the existing skeleton will accept the change (see comment on roofs/open/closed/moving), or if they have to do some time consuming major revamping. We can point out things all we want, and don't think that there are 20 guys working on stadiums.

Well said, jim. My only hope is that the devs and SCEA in general realize that there are just some people that don't know how to properly critique without insulting at the same time. This is BY FAR the minority of the people on OS. Unfortunately the ones that DO critique in negative manners are the ones that are the loudest and can sometimes ruin a good thing for everyone else.

As a Kentucky basketball fan, I know about this all too well. 95% of the millions of fans for UK basketball love the sport, the team and the players. They want the team to be competitive year in and year out. But the other 5% wants a player to transfer r a coach fired if there is one loss and they EXPECT a championship year in and year out and if there isn't one, then it is disappointing to them. These are the fans that get the most air time on ESPN and other sports outlets. Really makes the other 95% people look completely unreasonable.

Don't get me wrong, I fully understand that there are some people that want every detail to be perfect. I also think it is ok to be frustrated if something isn't right that should be. But for crying out loud, can we voice this in a respectful manner? SCEA has done more for this community than I have ever seen with any other game in my entire life of 36 years (25 of it playing video games). Appreciate it. Give criticism. But whatever you do, please keep it respectful.

Our points are not moot. The reason I'm commenting/criticizing is because the real Progressive field has had a different shade of green and led scoreboard for 5 or 6 years. I think thats enough developer cycles to fix those items, especially when they are adding completely new historic stadiums this year...I don't think were are asking them to "bend over backwards".

I think the guys at SCEA do a great job and have the best sports game available right now if not ever. So I'm not trying to bash them, just pointing out areas of improvement.

As an Indians fan myself, I agree with what you're saying.However, it's too late for 10.

I'd say make sure when the 11 wishlist thread pops up, we both post about this there. Let's be the first, so it'll be seen first.

That's what I meant about "moot". It's done for this year. Nobody is saying not to criticize, make wishlist stuff, but the "ignoring us" and wondering why it hasn't been done is........moot.

Re: MLB '10: The Show Screenshots, Batch #2 (Pasta Padre)

I'm wanna say a couple things to the people who are complaining.

If you can't enjoy this video game because your favorite team's stadium walls / uniform colors are slightly the wrong shade / hue or the scoreboard isn't 100% accurate, then that's your problem.

I'm sorry to be so blunt, but some of you are being ridiculous. You know they work on lots of other things beside the stadiums all year, so why would you even think that every stadium is gonna be 100% accurate to reality ?

there's nothing wrong with people wanting everything about their favorite team to be 100% spot on correct. Thats why the word fan is short for fanatic. And there is nothing wrong with people pointing out the shortcomings, its the way that people go about it sometimes that is whats wrong.

There's a fine line between point out the shortcomings and asking them to be fixed and pointing out the shortcomings and demanding them to be fixed. And sometimes, the chosen words people use, cloud that fine line, or at times...cross it.
