Baseball is officially around the corner. Love reading show news

After shoveling snow for the last few hours I say baseball can't get here fast enough. Now excuse me while I go die.

So on this calendar, for the dates that include Q&A and AMA (I assume that is "ask me anything"?)

Where will we actually submit questions? Here?

Will the new equipment brands be revealed in these previews?

I for one would like to thank Ramone and the team for releasing a schedule.
Tentative or not, its nice to when to look forward to news instead of wondering.

For those complaining about a fact sheet, just think all these dates u wont get your hopes up for what you want and have to live with the disappointments.

In other words stop complaining and just wait for your important dates.

Also the slower stream of news can help SCEA hear feedback about new additions, as opposed to an avalanche of opinions where specifics can get lost in the shuffle with a fact sheet where people specifically just talk about the modes they want resolve in.

I wonder if playing a whole series at once allows for different start times or if each game just repeats the start time settings of the one before it.

I hope wind matters not just in hitting but throwing. Throwing against the wind should not garner you your full attributes even crosswind should mess up your accuracy even pitching.

More Streamlined Base Running

I hope this means we have the option of running with the next pitch to your teammate batter as "result play" no waiting around if you dont intend on stealing.

I will miss the fact sheet. No doubt.

However, I think its awesome they released a tentative schedule of what to look out for. Very helpful! And like the poster said above, will help them gather feedback more easily.

Really hope this year is a "Franchise Mode" year for The Show. Long overdue.

I'll also say this: The sooner they can ditch the PS3, the better...

Online Franchise schedules are updated please..that's really all I'm looking for this year lol. I don't want to play the same schedule year after year.

Really dislike the perks in RTTS. Way too much in the direction of arcade for my tastes. Hoping they can be disabled rather than just "ignored".

Excited to hear about the rest of the game's features. Hoping Sounds of the Show isn't just generic sounds and that we can somehow import our own clips again!

What's the difference between ignoring and disabling in a single-player mode? The AI's not going to get to use them, obviously. Only thing I can see that would be reason to get upset over is leaderboards (and, let's face it - us sim guys are NEVER going to show up on those anyway, due to the difficulty levels we play on)

Umpire personality intrigues me. Really only expect this to affect home plate umps but hoping for something along the lines of each umpire having a different set of beliefs out there while calling games if you set it to variable balls and strikes. Like "Gives All-Stars Slack" and will call borderline calls in favor of an all star player or "Hard on Rookies" and won't give them the benefit of the doubt on check swings or border line pitches.

Ignoring it would mean that the prompts always pop-up, but I have to just cancel or back out of the window during the game. I would like to not have any mention of it or it be a thing in my career.

Not knocking anyone that would want it, just not my thing. And since they were looking for feedback I thought I would chime in. I might try the bullet time feature if it were separate, but doubt I would get into much. The game has been pretty good about being customizable in the past, just hoping that continues in moving forward.
