Maybe already talked about (haven't really went through everything) but is there any way to get shadows on the baserunners in the base running window?
I know it's a small thing but was wondering. No real biggie.Joshua:

SCEA has zero control over a player reporting to spring training with a beard (Adam Jones) and then decides to shave later. When you think about it, SCEA was proactive to include AJ with a beard.
Another example is Dustin Pedroia who was all in on the Red Sox team beard bonding the previous year, and started last season with the beard. Dustin shaved his beard during the season and what can you do?
Unless we can edit player features, nothing SCEA can do with the beard.Comment

If you're talking about the windows showing the runners on the base paths, they dont exist anymore... there is no more player animations in this sense... (reference is 5:40 from part 2 of 2).Comment

I did watch the stream, and it's still,darker than the rest of the field. Not sure why they are having such problems with lighting.Comment

I have a feeling when you are on ground level especially at home plate the lights would be too bright to see the things really lit up in the background.Comment

But I don't blame you -- I would build a strawman, too, if I wanted to deflect from the central argument, which is that they are rehashing the same low-variety, outdated, utterly stale on-the-field presentation animations for the last 4 years. "That is" (not "they are") lazy - or whatever other adjective you'd like to attach to it.
There is no defense for not adding to or updating the animations, especially considering the game is now on a next-gen system and is the only baseball game on the market. If you play this game in broadcast mode this year, and have played any one of MLB 12, 13, or 14, you have basically already seen every single presentation animation relative to the flow or excitement of every single game you will play in MLB 15 from the moment you open the wrapper. And that's not stale to you?
Players (especially pitchers) have no individuality or variety, batters have like 10 walkups and swing motions to choose from for 200+ hitters in a league, the dugout basically doesn't exist, and the only fan we see is one of the Devs holding a sign during the lineup call.
To me, and I'm sure to a lot of other long-time supporters, not adding at least a few new animations (I mean 20-30 new pitcher/batter reactions would've killed you?) is a huge disappointment and a major letdown for the game's first true release on the PS4.
If this game had a competitor this year, I would have flat-out jumped ship after seeing this video.Comment

Quote the words "development team" or "they are" in my original post. It's easy to attack a strawman, isn't it?

As for the first part of your post, everyone here can understand the inference of what you typed.

This hasn't really been a focus as it seems for a few years now.Last edited by geisterhome; 02-22-2015, 02:48 PM.Spending time with Jesus!

Didn't see much variety in the hit trajectories. I'm guessing there are still only seven well hit trajectories, of which five are outs. It gets really tiring watching line drives come off the bat at less than 40mph.Thanks to LBzrules: So these threads won't be forever lost.

Re: MLB 15 The Show Livestream - Cubs vs. Pirates: Full Game (Archive Available)
this is my first look at The Show in any form on the ps4 and i am stunned to see the presentation the same as it ever was.
same batter walk up osds.
same generic team standings osd
same lineup card.
same pitcher scouting report osd [speed of pitches?]
incredible.
disappointed in sony for neglecting this again.
the game feels like its stuck in molasses.Comment

And I am glad you brought up PYS so I didn't have to. In a side-by-side comparison of a year-old game (PYS '14) on inferior hardware (PS3), to this video of MLB 15 on the PS4, a person so inclined could easily and clearly demonstrate instances where PYS is vastly superior in player models, swing mechanics, pitcher/catcher motions, running animations, bat/ball contact physics, and just basic baseball animations in general (irrespective of whatever it may do worse).
But hey, if you and others think the Show's animations, presentation, and player models are up to speed with other sports games using the same hardware (or some even using inferior hardware), and if you feel this effort is worth your time and money, then have at it. I honestly (and sadly) don't, as I was really looking forward to the game as always.
Maybe I will brush up on my Japanese and give PYS a shot. Peace, no hate! - it's just my honest opinion as a long-time fan.Comment
