Re: MLB 14 The Show Features Online Franchise - New Screenshots and Videos From Taiwa

It appears to me that the Pittsburgh skyline is missing in the second video. Could it be that it's getting some additional work and wasn't ready to be put into the build on display here? Or is it more likely that PNC got a fresh layer of proverbial paint and they simply haven't added the old skyline in yet?

...or both? Either way that would be great for me personally as I've spent the last 7 years of my life in Pittsburgh and love that skyline and that ballpark more than words can describe. Even if I am jealous of the team that calls it home's recent success.

Or have I simply overlooked the buildings?

I'm dying to try out '14.....especially seeing the PS4 version.

Since the PS4 version is the only one I'm getting, I completely agree.

This whole Oriole's helmet ordeal is seriously frustrating. It's been 3 years, when MLB2k got it right both years they had a game. So I really don't get it.

Blame the style guide and teams that refuse to update

Cue up the guy that says

" I have a hard time believing that"


But...this is an older build as well....and it just might not have been changed yet.

I made the point last year though that 2K wouldn't have gotten it right 2 years in a row if the style guide was outdated. Then when people made SCEA aware of the issue, they said they were "making a note for the next game." So hopefully its just because its an early build.

Just FYI.....

That doesn't mean that it is a "fixable" thing.

Last year I literally was posting (I believe it was sydrodgerdavid) with someone about St. Louis......walking to the dev in charge of uni's office....and showing him the pics that syd sent.(which is what St. Louis WAS indeed wearing)....The dev than showed me the entire catalog he could use from the guide ...and that uni was nowhere to be found.
In that case...there was nothing he could do unless St. Louis or the MLB updated his guide(which they had not before release)

There needs to be a sub-forum named "Style Guide".

I know you know more about this than I do, so if the style guide indeed doesn't have the white panel helmet included, does that simply mean 2K has been saying f-u to style guides for the past couple years? lol. I know its a subjects people hate hearing about every year, but still.

That I can't tell you.
It's possible. Maybe Legal at 2K isn't as stringent as in Sony.
But I know Sony takes great lengths to stay in the stringent guidelines set by the MLB...and MLBPA.

Maybe Sony is using an outdated style guide and 2K used the most up to date.

Does Sony and anyone else have to pay to renew their guide every year?

Seeing the ps4 version is going to be absolutely magical!!! Cant wait.

Re: Some MLB The Show 14 pictures (ps3)

That transition is only present in the new Dynamic camera in offense. All the other cameras (medium, High etc) function as they did last year.



There is also a new dynamic defense camera as well.

I'm loving it! On balls hit in the outfield you can now clearly see second base so you can make better choices if you want to go for third or make it a standup double because you can see the ball and cut-off man the whole time.

Dynamic camera looks really good. Really helps to immerse you inside the ballparks outside of RTTS.

Seeing ball and runner/base in the same screen is something some of us have been asking for. I think camera alone can add drama to plays by a) allowing the player to judge ball-flight to see if the ball will drop in, get by a player, or leave the yard; b) just like a fan would judge for himself, you get to see a runner and a throw into a base in the same field of view...adds drama if you ask me. Am excited to see how this cam plays out on the PS4 but also still hoping for more than just 'one' added cam. Was really hoping they would open the camera floodgates by adding 3 or 4 new ones.

Same presentation? Ugh....puuuuuuke.

But that new menu screen and Online Franchise brought me right back in. Bastards.
