This series has led a lot of sports gamers over to the PS side over the years, myself included. It's that good (IMO).

For those of you complaining about weather and double headers etc, there's obviously a technical reason as to why they don't have those features in.

What is it then? Because we had them on the ****ing PS2...

I could see rain delays being added in at some point. But rain outs mean a lot of work probably to come up with re-scheduling algorithms to pick a day for the makeup game or double header.

With a rain delay, they could add some presentation pieces and fast forward the time of day a certain amount within a range (say 30 minutes to 3 hours or whatever). And maybe subtract 20% starting pitcher stamina for every hour or something like that.

For rain outs and setting up re-scheduled games and double headers, the slightest mis-step in the logic for handling it could probably really screw up scheduling. Sure it could be done, but maybe once the game is really, really mature on the PS4. Something to add in when about everything else they envision being in the game is already in and working exactly the way they want it.


I can't remember if it was old PS2 versions of The Show, or maybe it was MVP/Triple Play that actually had thunder sounds when it was raining? Or maybe I'm thinking of something else...

Hate to break it you but that means less than nothing.

Yea I know that. Was just giving the answer that others would eventually bring up. It's probably a lot of hours of coding and testing to make sure everything is working perfectly like you guys strive for.

Stands to reason that it is more than feasible on the ps4 though since the ps4 is superior to the ps2.

I'm not too technologically savy or anything, but i don't understand why things would be easier on an older inferior system like the ps2 compared to a newer superior one? Shouldn't it be the opposite?

For example, closed roofs was on the ps2/ps3, teams wearing their own uniform in the all star game, rain delays apparently. Mlb 2k7 had "cloth physics"

So why is that these things are harder to implement on ps4 now? Is it that the newer technology is too complicated, has far more intricacies to take into account?

Those old games file sizes are like 1/10 the size of current gen assets. One of our stadiums on PS4 might be bigger than the entire game on PS2.

Re: MLB The Show 16 Live Stream (IGN)

I'm just spitballing, but if I had to guess it's because of the amount of memory it would take, among other factors, to deliver visually to the level that the PS4 is capable of. I think some of us including myself took for granted that we saw things like weather patterns and closed roofs on previous systems and just assumed we'd see those things in the newer tech. I see things visually, so I'd relate it like this - if you paint a small picture, it's tough to pick up on the inaccuracies of the work, whereas if you were to paint a mural on the side of a building, the blemishes would stand out a lot more, not to mention it would be far more time consuming and tougher to execute at a high level.

Re: MLB The Show 16 Live Stream (IGN)

MLB 15 was a well presented game overall but the disappearing grass texture whilst pitching really was a spoiler.
Will this be fixed for 16?

I would like to know this as well.
It would also be nice if you can see the 3d grass while batting instead of the green mat

I think it's too late, but I'll ask Aaron. If he tries to cut my head off for asking I'm sending him your way.

Thanks for fixing this

I have no issues buying another PS4 and yes just for the show. As you a lot of you know on here I'm a huge baseball fan, METS OF COURSE. [emoji3]


I can put it in the bedroom just for me. My fiance and son play the xbone all the time and I'm like damn isn't this my system. Lmao

I have a lot of money invested in my Xbox so I will never get rid of it. My external hdd alone is worth over 2 grand alone, as I'm all digital.

I may pick another p4 up, already got my tax money lol. Decisions, decisions
