Playstation.Blog has posted some more MLB 11 The Show co-op mode details. Unfortunately, we can't use this mode in season or franchise mode.
"For those of you that follow us closely, you know that we spend a lot of time reading feedback from all of our fans out there. One of the features that many of you have been pushing for is the desire to play The Show with someone as a teammate, instead of just as an opponent. So, this year we created a co-op mode that gives you and a buddy the ability to play on the same team against the CPU, against 1 player, or against 2 other players.
Hereโs how it worksโฆyouโre able to customize who will be responsible for the different offensive and defensive areas of the game. When youโre at bat, you can choose to allow one person to do all of the batting or choose to alternate batters. The base running works in the opposite way so if youโre batting, your teammate will be responsible for the base running allowing you to work together for sacrifices and hit and runs. I promise you, if youโre playing a 2v2 co-op offline, youโll start to develop hand signals with your teammate for these situations. I know, that sounds ridiculous, but itโs going to happen.
When youโre in the field, there are four different controllable areasโpitcher, catcher, infield, and outfield. Again, you have the ability to customize who is responsible for different areas. The pitcher, like the batter, can alternate between the teammates (per inning)."
