MLB 12 The Show Trailer - CC Sabathia

Re: MLB 12 The Show Trailer - CC Sabathia

You know what I have noticed? White names can be blasted for their comments without mercy by a blue name; even more, a blue name that had attended community day. How were you guys even chosen to attend communtity day I often wonder? How were you all deemed The Greatest Fans of the Show on the Face of the Earth? Hmm, interesting to me. I wish OS would give the community day gods gold names, so we can bow to their existence upon any thread they enter.

When I read the comment from the gentleman that may or will keep playing '10, but then was ridiculed in such a cute, hip, and ruthless manner, I simply shook my head. Why couldn't the response be met with an uttering of "to each their own" to themselves, and let it drop. Heck, what's the big deal, I have seriously considered sticking with '11 simply because I want to keep playing with the classic roster set I have? It doesn't mean 12 will be awful and unfit for purchase, it's a simple choice. Now, the gentleman may have other reasons for the comment, but it is moot in my opinion.

Nonetheless, it looks like it is my turn for the cute abuse from the resident dieties. OK, blast away big boys!

Yeah, this thread has definitely been led astray... especially when you get people specifically asking for a "rise" from other members.

This is partly because previously-banned users tend to comeback with new accounts just to make negative statements for the sake of doing it... That may well be the case if their join dates are like really recent...

No story Bro, just adding, as others have and its ok too, that a lack of media release, and lack of franchise upgrade don't really persuade me into buying the next installment of a game. Go ahead and flame me, I just don't get excited over 1.5 minute trailers that show general gameplay of someone swinging a bat or throwing a ball. Yes, do arm slots and tickers around a stadium add to the feel of a game, absolutly, but if thats whats persuading you to purchase a game, I think your missing out on what the core mechanics of a baseball game consist of. Yes, I have seen the list of new features, simply put, I as many others I would venture to say, but don't view their opinion on here for childish comments as yours, aren't going to purchase this years game based on what information has been released.

Have you ever purchased a game based on a "1.5 minute trailer" though? I know I haven't. I skipped out on 11 after playing a few times because the changes to me didn't justify abandoning my much vested 10 franchise. So I can understand your hesitation. No big deal. For me, the info brought back by the CD guys is enough for me to send my 2010 franchise across the river on a boat of flames and finally move on to a new game.

New ball physics add a whole new dimension of "core mechanics" in video game baseball. As well as the new fielding animations, branching and urgency. Tagging system, player awareness, break up plays and beauty of the double plays, etc.

Feels like a whole different evolution for baseball gaming. One where I can no longer even "watch" '11 play out, let alone play.

And that is just the tip of the slew of features they have added. But since we are on the subject of "core mechanics", I need not mention everything else.

Your point is taken. My point was not to "start a riot". I was simply offering a different perspective based on what has been released and to possibly have a discussion on it. The disservice to myself would be to simply ditch my multi-year franchise because of the release of a new game. Its unfortunate that I can't roll my franchise into the new release, but I understand the limitations and difficulties in doing so. Look, I am very brand loyal as is displayed by me playing a game 2 years old and not moving to another. I believe the buisness model Sony employs by communicating with their fan base to develop a brighter product is one that should be modeled by other companies. The core problem I have is the amount of time that has been placed into my 2 year old franchise by playing games and developing players to me , at this time, based on what I have seen and read, simply does not warrant a purchase at this time. I'm thinkning '13 will be the year. I am an older gamer who started on the Commodore 64 playing Star League baseball and Hardball, as well as table top Statis-Pro. Those games inititally did not reproduce year to year. In fact, it has been discussed on this board the advantages/disadvantages to stopping the year to year release of sports games. Todays games are light years ahead of those days, and are true sims. So from that perspective adjustements as those that you have mentioned, although all valid, don't greatly persuade me to make a change year-to-year. As opposed to people getting into an uproar, my comment should be taken not as a criticism but praise for the product SCEA has produced.

I'm not trying to fan flames or anything like, but I have to say something to the guy that said he's sticking with MLB 10.

I don't think you know what you're missing.

I noticed a lot of improvement in many different aspects from MLB 10 to MLB 11. MLB 11 to MLB 12 seems to be even more of an improvement because of the ball physics and improved animations.

I love the new arm motion but I wonder if this will apply to every pitcher?
