MLB 2K11 Video: First Gameplay (Shaky Cam)

[Wavebird99]

Am I the only one who thought you could barely see anything? There were like two plays to the field.

I didn't know where else to post it and didn't want to make a new thread, but ronnie just said he expects raw gameplay footage to be out within a week or so... Cross your fingers!

Not the most flattering video. However the visual & lighting look solid & everything seemed to be running pretty smooth. Only negative was that some of the player faces look like corpses. Particularly Josh Hamilton. Hopefully this was down to the video quality & not what the game actually looks like.

I think this is great personally. For me 2k10 played out far too fast animation wise. I think toning it down gives it a more measured approach and you don't have the guys running around as if they are on roids.

I don't like that they reverted back to the old fielding camera; it gets way too "overhead" when going to the outfield. Shame, I'd much prefer a true broadcast cam. No game still has yet to fully replicate that in-game. The ball also looks rather oversized. And did I see Omar Vizquel on SF again? Whose stance was that?

I liked everything else though, it looks like the real time presentation worked its way back in again somewhat, almost like the team took some steps backwards but in good ways. I'm also digging how both games are incorporating the proper BTP cams for more authenticity, it looks legit! I'm just waiting on some full innings of play and hearing the three man booth once again!

EDIT: And I see some people are complaining about the jumpy lineup stuff. That's not the game that's doing that, it was just the way they edited the video. Much like how it started off with Lincecum about to pitch and then they were suddenly in the main menu.

See, I think this was a VERY early build of 2k11. Then again maybe not...Dont know if anyone else noticed but adrian beltre had that same generic stance that was there last year which is a real bummer and a bite sad. Especially since they had his stance i the game 2k7 - 2k9 and then nothing all of the sudden in 2k10 and looks to be the same in 2k11, which means alfonso soriano is liekly to eb generic along with the rest of the "closed stance" hitters. I am hoping I am wrong. Also is it me or is tori hunter either the hardest face to replicate in a video game is do devs just not like the game. the "other" game has him down pretty nice this year but seeing some of the 2k videos....def left something to be desired. Again, could be early builds and stf could of changed

Not using this as an excuse, but objects moving away from you look slower than objects coming toward you.

Looks much more polished than last year, love the animations and player faces!
