Haha, I just used that on someone today LOL! The game is still a banger overall to me...make no mistake about that. I'm just going to keep ramping up my color concerns until they're addressed. I've been reminding SDS about seat colors behind the plate at Busch for the same duration.

I hope any remaining patches are successful, and that the Cards sweep the baby bears this weekend!

I feel like pretty much every team's color is slight off. I've thought it was my TV before but there's just not enough pop to the colors. The Cardinals red is the same was as described about the Nationals. To dark and kind of maroonish.

What I meant was that the two are on very different levels of importance.

I don't mean to be rude, I'm just saying that, if we HAD to choose, we should be happier with the gameplay than the colors.

How many people look back at Zelda: A Link to the Past and get angry that Link's hair is pinkish-purple instead of blonde or brown? No one. They just appreciate an amazing game--because it's still great.

One can always fix colors later. Some IPS patches do just that.

That being said, you are correct in that dev teams are considerably larger than they used to be, thus they have more resources to devote to minor stuff like this.
Yeah, the colors do bug me. I'm also bugged we don't have the Astros' mid-to-late-90s uniforms in the game--the ones with all that blue and gold. Stupid restrictive style guide...if they're not in the style guide, then I can't really blame the programmers for that one, can I?

But still, my gut tells me this color thing is a lot harder to fix than we think--I remember when Da_Czar (Nino Samuel) and bedwardsroy19 (Mike Stauffer), two of the most respected OSers, got hired by 2K, and now work on the NBA 2K games for a living.
They learned that some of the things that sounded so simple on paper...are actually some of the hardest things to code, like player collision and foot-planting.
For all I know, making the colors on the uniforms right ends up making two or three things in the stadium WORSE for whatever reason. Like trying to solve a Rubik's Cube if you don't know exactly what you're doing.
Until we get a look at the actual source code (and that won't happen), we'll never know.

I just don't want people to be like that fringe segment of Sonic the Hedgehog fans who get screeching about Sonic's eyes or arms being a different color.
All that does is make the rest of the fans look bad by association. We don't want that.

Of course it would be ideal if both were right.
But given the choice, I'll take gameplay 10 times out of 10.

Again, I don't mean to be a jerk or anything like that. Please don't ban me.
I just want people to understand my perspective.

Colours? Colours? we're talking about colours? Is that what we're arguing about now? Gameplay should be the biggest concerns about a Baseball game not colours! Too much complaining in this room now.

I do agree with you, but some of those colors are very inaccurate.

Gameplay for the most part is legit, so why can't others who are fine with gameplay talk about other areas of the game that are in need of some help such as the colors?

Has anyone noticed the game loading much slower to the initial menu after the patch? I am playing on a PS4 Pro with a 2 TB hard drive (internal).
