MLB 15 The Show Fact Sheet - Gameplay Reveal Scheduled For February 5th on Twitch

Re: MLB 15 The Show Fact Sheet - Gameplay Reveal Scheduled For February 5th on Tw...

The reason generated faces were brought in was because they dont have a way to do what youre asking. No player, let alone team would allow "every" player to where hats for teams they dont play for at training camp when their photos are taken. The compromise was the cpu generated faces.

Maybe they could spend time and edit each team's hat onto every player? Again, I don't know how much work this would all be, and I trust SCEA in their priorities for making the game better... just wanted to throw it out there!
I wish they'd at least update player photos when someone moves to a new team like they did in MLB 13 though. Or if they could add a player photo onto rookies once they create them (but idk if that's allowed or even possible).

the CGI faces don't really bother me it's the mix of the real photos and CGI faces that seem to be the problem, maybe they need to scrap all photos and just have everything CGI so it looks more consistent? I must say I prefer it then the way it was before with the old photo

The only problem I have with that solution is that not all the faces in the game look like the player themselves. If I had to choose, I'd go with keeping the same old photo on every player no matter what team he has. But I'm pretty sure that a lot of people were asking for that to be changed and that's why SCEA changed it to cyber faces, but that's okay.

You know you can have all cyber faces in franchise mode right?

EDIT:see Knight's comment below.

You could do this for a few years now......
Start your franchise......start like you're going to do a fantasy draft...BACK out before going to the draft(just choose yes on fantasy draft....then hit circle)...and viola!....all generated faces.

Well, there could be more from someone who posted -"New speed paradigm for fielders and base runners"


After all, rjackson did say he could be wrong, and anyone can claim an educated guess with I could be wrong. And, I don't see why you should be so concerned with my seeking fact.

Your act is wearing very very thin.

Of course anyone making an educated guess could be wrong. You aren't going to be getting an actual answer until the game is released from anyone here unless you are expecting Ramone to answer you.

You've told us your age many times but to be honest, it's time to grow up a bit.

Question about editable contracts, which is the feature I'm most excited for:

It says, "Editable Contracts (Franchise mode)". Does this mean you have to be in a franchise in order to edit the contracts, or can I edit the contracts at the Edit Roster portion of the Main Menu outside of Franchise, but it's only utilized when IN Franchise mode?

Thanks in advance for the response.

Can we get someone from SECA to give more information on this, if any? I'd really appreciate it. This is a huge deal for me. Lol

The way it sounds is you have to be inside franchise mode to edit the contracts. It's possible it could be in the player editor on the front end. We'll have to wait until they release more info.

Hopefully Ramone will give more info here soon.

Doubt it. I don't even think there are contracts until loading the franchise mode. You haven't even been able to see them let alone edit them. That's how Totte was able to engineer real value contracts. Outside of franchise mode, he'd edit the players to be better or worse/alter their positions and then load the franchise mode (which would apply the contracts at that point) and then edit the players back to their normal ratings. It's a very tedious procedure, but the contracts stuck and there was hardly a better way.

I'm hoping it means the contracts only carry over into Franchise, not you have to edit them IN Franchise. If they don't carry to RTTS, that's not such a big deal.

wow I can't believe I read right over the performance based player progression! Must've been so excited about the GM contracts and ability to have ur team get sponsored that I just totally missed it.

No sir. He'll have the created face you made for him.

Basically they way it will work is whatever roster is in your save file will be the same roster carried over. No new face scans no updated rookies etc.....

Example:Brandon Finnegan will have an updated SCEA scan/Model in MLB 15. If you use a carry over save from 14 he will not. It'll be the same created player from your file in 14. Does that make sense?

If you want updated scans/models for players you'll have to start a brand new franchise in 15.

Yes I get that and like you are explaining it is how I assumed it to be.
Just saying it'd be nice if his scanned head would become available when editing players so that we could add it to his formerly created self on the old roster file we are using for our ongoing franchise.

Re: MLB 15 The Show Fact Sheet - Gameplay Reveal Scheduled For February 5th on Twitch

Anybody know if the new game will have a Fielding practice mode for RTTS specifically ?


I can't believe they haven't been having this in this game seems like a no brainer.

You're not the only one that did this. I read it but didn't let it sink in fully as to what it meant. Very excited about this addition.

I can kind of take it or leave it either way. If it has generated faces, I can live with that, if it has a real picture with the wrong hat on, I can live with that too. This is just one of those little things that doesn't bother me. I know it is big for a lot of people though. The big thing I wish they would bring back is the announcers going down the line and announcing the starters like they did in older versions.

I like the way the old ESPN games did it, where the player had his hat cropped out, and the picture was just of his face. Anyone remember this?
