Re: MLB 2k11 Features List

Well I'm certainly glad their attention is strictly focused on improving the game they have set in stone. No gimmicky modes, no heavy online attention, and hopefully nothing to hiccup the framerate or make this game melt in our console. This is the MLB 2K10 that should have been... let's hope.

Re: MLB 2k11 Features List

The feature list doesn't blow me away, so hopefully that means that they spent most of their time working on the gameplay and other areas of the game.

"....paint the corners with pinpoint accuracy..."

I really hope they give us a pitching accuracy or difficulty slider. I can pinpoint pitches with Carlos Marmol (and I re-rated him to give him 30's control), that's something I wish not to be able to do.

I like the revamped fielding point, where they made a point to say that we now have control.

It's only a features list though, so it's not like it's going to sway me one way or another.

I desperately want a pitching accuracy slider too. Hopefully they will make it harder to hit your spots this year.

I like the revamped fielding and I really like the dynamic player ratings. I've been waiting for a game to finally let you update player ratings AFTER you start a dynasty/franchise. Many games constantly update player rosters but what good is it for the offline guy that's already started a franchise? This finally solves that problem.

Here we go with the pinpoint accuracy talk. I really hope they have added a pitch variable slider to make pitching a little more challenging.

I'm wondering if home run derby is still in.

Dynamic Player Ratings. 2k does it again. Kudos to them

That kinda did make me feel better about this game and the new Player Models and animations ..

Re: MLB 2k11 Features List

Focusing on the fundementals is cool...but it looks like ronnie wrote that up this morning. Be cool to see a little more detail?

Re: MLB 2k11 Features List

Shouldn't ratings progress and regress based on how the player is doing in the sim engine of the franchise?

Would be kinda odd that he progresses but is getting shelled in the sim engine, just because he pitches well IRL.

Unless someone can describe this in more detail.

dynamic player ratings only refer to exhibiton/MLB Today/ and online games. It doesn't effect franchise mode.

Sorry...but unless you can turn that on and off...that's odd.

Re: MLB 2k11 Features List

If they do add the ability to add players into an existing franchise after you begin....that would be a pretty nice feature.

But I'm hoping they can progress and regress depending on their performance in franchise because I do not care to use the dynamic player ratings (I perfer to just play my own franchise in my own world).

Edit: But I figure it will not be something that is forced though, there's no possible way they could since not everyone has the ability to connect to the internet (or would even want to). So I'm not worried at all about it.

There is no more detail available. Right now, most people read this as a positive development. Thank God we have you to poke holes in the 2K spin.

I think the list looks great, except for the pinpoint pitching. That is a key beef most people had with this game.
