    The 2015 MLB season just wrapped up with the Kansas City Royals taking (back) The Crown, but we're not ready to stop talking baseball here at PlayStation. Our team in San Diego is hard at work making next year's edition of The Show our best console baseball experience ever. We're proud to announce that MLB [...]

        Yep, that's exactly who this feature appears to be geared towards. Not us.

        And I can hear the "why are they wasting resources on THIS"? complaints starting already.

              For sure the complaints well be plenty, I'll admit my first reaction to it was "no, who wanted this other than brandon phillips "(I believe it was him who suggested it back in mlb14) but it might some perks to it to be useful, it sounds like at least with the batting they are trying to give you more control on where you put the ball in play.

              Edit: also I'll will add this was also most likely put in play due to many complaining about the game feeling stale and relatively remaining unchanged for many years.

                "You can also expect a more streamlined Road To the Show experience, as a new paradigm for base-running and fielding opportunities will maximize the time you spend in situations that matter. "

                More Streamlining, and more Arcadey gameplay.

                This is a trend now.

                  They really need to make the running and fielding animations more organic. The players have such a stiff feel to them

                    The running and fielding animations never bothered me but the pitching always did. The majority of motions do have a stiff and unnatural feel. From what I can see, there appears to be no change. That "other (foreign league) game" hits it right on the nose.

                      Meh, every year, the first trailer comes out, then people judge/complain about certain things, then certain people remind everyone not to judge so quickly because it's still early....

                      And then the game comes out, and the same things people complained about are still evident.

                        Sadly there is a lot of truth to your statement, but being a yearly release game, it is too be expected that there isnt huge leaps from one year to another. That's why I've always been a proponent to sports games going on a every other year development cycle. It gives them way more time to focus on particular areas that would take more than 10 months to develop. So many already claim that most sports game are merely a schedule and roster update from year to year, so why not skip a year in between releases and add a patch for a updated roster and the next year schedule and possibly some other patch fixes or updates for a low price (just to make money from the off year) that way you get a more polished and advance game from the previous years.

                          Would of been great to hear gary thorne open up the trailer with welcome to mlb the show 16 along with new player models. Oh well, it was wishful thinking. At least we get sounds of the show this year right?

                            GUYS! I don't think you noticed, so I made some illustrations on this screenshot to draw your eye to the biggest thing to happen to The Show after the Chick-fil-A Dalmatian.

                              Me, imo, they dont really need to add much to the game. Just smooth some things over to make it more organic and more sim. Adding these extras and arcadey stuff isnt really needed. They have a really good franchise mode that I love. I would rather see that improved ie: more organic baserunning, pitchers stanima more realistic, more stats, better trade logic, more indepth MoM, the ability to see energy levels in the rotation and lineup screens instead of right before the game screen, and etc.

                              Only thing SIM about sports games now, are the team name and players

                              MLB 23 FOREVER 20 is better, 23 just for Guardians
                              Madden get rid of the extras (SS/XF, HFA, media, scenarios, game plan) or turn them down considerably.

                                Now if they've revamped STATS and if that "Conquest Mode" looking thing is actually there to add depth to franchise mode...hoo boy. That spells pre-order for me. The "Conquest Mode" is probably it's own mode though.
