Even though I'm a huge fan of the other game I have to agree with what everyone else is saying.........

the presentation is better in THIS game.

I would say this video fits the description from several of the gaming sites and their previews. Basically 2k10, with some improved models, lighting, cameras, etc.

I am realistic and realize that what I saw isn't the complete product and in all honesty i liked what I saw so far. Let's wait for some more videos and a demo before you bring out the comments to the level of this improvement or not.
The problem is that they released a first gameplay vid that doesn't highlight any of the improvements. No new hit types, the one homerun they show had a "tell" by going slow motion during a grand slam...that's more annoying than the arrow to me.

They released a vid that IMO showed nothing about what they were talking about...improved pitch AI , new hit types, etc. It was more bad marketing

I don't think it's fair to expect to see all the new improvements in a video but graphics, animations and camera angles are fair game. I really hope we have camera options and that's not the fielding camera when pitching. Why not show a full inning for crying out loud? If that's the camera I'm stuck with it will affect my purchase decision.

We already know that's not going to be the fielding view while pitching (remember the unoffical cam video?). They said when batting that there would be a separate camera view after the ball is hit so you can see the baserunners a little better....or something along those lines.

I agree though man, it was a weird choice to just show this half inning. They really should've showed a full inning with pitching and fielding. To me, it seems liike Ronnie2K or some other marketing guy made this video instead of the developers, and unfortunately I don't think he knows that much about baseball.....and the fact that he's swinging at almost everything is pretty silly too. I just wish they would've made a better video.

But to me the game itself looks alright. I knew it was going to be a lot like 2K10, but with a lot of problems fixed and some polish, and so far that's what it looks like.

Hey all, this is comparing this video to mlb 2k10, it really does look a lot different in this shot, but the overall game feels the same MLB 2k10 is on the left and 2k11 on the right. click on the image to make it bigger.

I don't remember they're being line drives that tail off the way one of the hits into LF did and I don't remember the line drives curving the way one of the hits to right field did, but maybe my memory is just bad.

Yes, there's definitely ball slicing and tailing going on that wasn't present in 2K10, so that's good.

I was expecting the hitting camera to be sort of dynamic, by that I mean the camera to follow the batter as he runs to 1st. Like when a player in real life gets a single and they show the camera that follows the batter.

But they also didn't fix the batter not rounding the base if the ball is hit past the infield, he just runs straight to 1st as if he is trying to beat the throw.
