Not really sure where to put this, but the Marlins are using matte helmets this year and are once again allowing players to have facial hair.

You have a link to the Matte Helmets?

I saw that video, but can you confirm it's something they are switching to full time and not just for Spring Training?

I cannot. Honestly, it's an assumption on my part especially with the trend of so many teams switching to them recently. I do have a couple of Marlins-related changes that I've been trying, unsuccessfully, to pass along for a few years now. Would you be able to pass that info along?

I don't know of any teams that use different batting helmets in spring training and in the regular season.

I am glad this stream is over...
It was pretty bad (quality of stream, not info) and I am not really a fan of DD.

I am looking forward to seeing more gameplay video, specifically fielding, ball physics, edit player improvements, and commentary.

I am very much into the core game and what makes it feel, sound and look like real baseball.

If all those things took a leap forward, and all signs indicate they did, then I will be happy as I think the games are already pretty close to real life.

When the Pirates first introduced the Matte they only wore it during ST then the following year they switched to the matte full time.

No worries man I would have made the same assumption as well. I'll try and forward the info and see what happens.

Sorry if it's been asked or answered. I am at work and unable to watch the streams.

Any new modes or challenges for us OFFLINE only diamond dynasty players? I liked conquest mode last year but after completing it I had nowhere else to go with the diamond dynasty mode. Thanks!

Can someone do a cliff notes version of the stream please? While I am not interested much in DD, I'm wondering if some more info was released about some other aspects.

I could be wrong, but in the short gameplay portion of the stream, it appeared as though it had broadcast presentation. If that's true than one of my biggest wishes for DD vs CPU has come true. I spend a lot of time on my team's uniforms, but fast play never lets me admire them in cutscenes. If I actually have that option now, I may play more DD this year than I had originally thought.

I did notice that too. Its understandable why Broadcast during an Online game is a disaster, but when playing against the CPU, no reason Fast Play should be forced upon you.

In regards to Seasons and the New Rank System. It says the highest reward is reached at level 900. And the ones below all fall in 100 level increments.

In previous years, one win would level you up about ~100 rank.

I imagine it is different this year because that would mean you need 9 wins to get the highest reward.

My question is, how much do you rank up per win?

Re: MLB The Show 17 Twitch Stream Up - Diamond Dynasty, Events, Seasons, Programs & M

I have a question. In one of the streams - I can't remember which one - a developer described how they test the game to make sure the number of hits is accurate.

My question is what umpire setting they use to assure realistic numbers of hits in the game. I use manage mode with no human input and I'd like it to be as close to reality as possible but I'm not sure which umpire setting they use to test the game.

If someone could answer that I'd greatly appreciate it.
