Mid air slices/hooks have existed for a long time, but once the ball hit the ground it usually lost its spin and straightened out. This kind of ground ball movement is what can cause baseline hits to spin into outfield side walls (and away from fielders), resulting in more unpredicability and extra base hits.
I see what you mean but I honestly can not say if I have ever seen that in 16 or not. But I will definitely take your word for it and hope you are right

So yeah, what jumps out to me immediately was the bouncing ball curling down the line (hooking) off the left handed batter that had the right ball physics!! Tell me I was seeing that correctly!?

Same crap. Add a new feature. Meanwhile online franchise still is broken. Saving money if it isn't fixed.

I agree dude, I really hated the part of the trailer where they showed online franchise with the same lack of features.

Totally agree with the guys above. While Retro seems like a cool idea, why not work on glaring issues that SCEA has with online play and online leagues/franchise

The trailer was ok. I'm not going to judge the graphics yet since we are in December. Not a fan of RTTS or the new Retro mode but am happy for those who are. My main thing is to see what they have improved in Franchise mode. Also want to see what they are going to do with the PS4 Pro version.
