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!

Road To The Show is a mode that revolves around artificially injecting your player with magical points that make him faster, stronger, and better at various facets of baseball. You get to do this after every few games. Then, after a few years, you have the framework of a sure 1st ballot hall of famer. By the way, this entire time, you are immortal and immune to injuries.

If an ultra-realistic mode is what you're looking for, RTTS shouldn't have had your attention in the first place.

I'm curious to hear about the Player Uniqueness. Intrigued as to what that will involve.

They've already touched a little on this already with the new baserunning, where there is more variation in the style of running. I'm not sure if this is the type of things they are referring to when they talk about player uniqueness, but it does create more disparity on the field.

Gee thanks, next you'll tell me that it is a video game.

Sounds of the Show being mentioned has me giddy.

Ramone should make OS users red in the twitch stream so our questions are answered first.

I really hope franchise mode scheduling is better this year, mainly not playing the same inter league games every year. Also better equipment choices for generated players would be nice.

SOTS???? oh God I hope so. Its a real real real cruel prank to put that on the schedule if importing sounds isn't possible.

Interest piqued. Hopefully more and better stats will be in one of those streams.

It is good to see the original swing analysis back. I like how they hybridized it a little by keeping the colors for the timing from 15 but used the reticle instead of the blob. Hit speed seems new, don't remember that.

SOUNDS. OF. THE. SHOW. HOLY ****! I am now stoked. I would have to assume by dedicating an entire "episode" to SOTS means that there is going to be some sort of outside music system! THANK THE HEAVENS!

Will the Batter picther analysis make it's way back to the D-Pad? I hate pausing and going to stats for this.

Maybe they can put it on the touch-pad, i can't remember what the touch-pad was used for in 15 but i know i disabled it and so the touch-pad had no use at all.

Can't wait for the SoTS and franchise info and hopefully better stat tracking is revealed.
