Guys Matt said you can hear the difference between a dribbler & a blast. Brinkman has said that they recorded various bat sounds & those sounds will vary. Quote from the conference call:

Quote:

5:52 -- TJ just asked about the bat crack: Added all new bat sounds. Multiple different bat cracks based on where the ball hits off bat and also based on velocity.

Here's hoping this will ease people's anxieties...

I use to think he was a genius man... great MVP series, and then he turned 2k7 around completely (2k6 was abysmal)...

but I agree... after this conference call... eek.

As long as the AI roster logic's been improved then maybe we want miss line up/rotation editing... too much.

Thanks for reporting this stuff & looking forward to the write up.

People usually do all their editing before starting a Franchise because I believe editing after a Franchise is started isn't possible

What a frickin' joke!!You can have these stupid player cards but you can't control the lineups of all the teams? so that makes the game unplayable for me and who cares if you can control it before your game. this is very very bad and no wonder 2k sports keeps losing there games,first football,. then there college basketball game and this will soon follow.If they want to cater to the arcade crowd thats fine but i'm finding out now the Show is for real baseball fans! Sorry 2k sports you've just lost a customer for good and no one will care in a couple years when you close the doors. KG was smart to get out now.
