MLB 12 The Show Video - Exclusive Look at Diamond Dynasty (GameTrailers)

[mmorg]

My team is going to be completely old timey. With curly mustaches, high socks, and classic batting stances/pitcher deliveries. Can't wait to see what I can come up with in regards to uniforms and logos.

I have to admit I didn't care for DD when the first bit of details came out. It sounded too much like HUT or MUT to me.
But hearing that we have to develop our own random dynasty players has me very intrigued.
I love RTTS modes as well as Dynasty modes. It sounds like this kind of combines the two?

Very cool.

I'm glad you have opened up to this now....
It really looks like an interesting mode from what little we saw.

I know there are elements that are similar to other build a team modes....but that's impossible to not have in some senses....but there are a lot of unique features to DD as well.

I hope to see a lot of OS members on the leaderboards!

I can't wait to see what others will come up with. That's the beauty of opening up the customization of a game; you get to see a lot of what people can do with their imaginations. Based on what I have seen with the options, I'm going old school too with my uniforms and players (those that aren't current MLB players that is). However, one game I might play against a guy with wacked out jerseys and colors, the next game could be against another totally conservative team, and the next game might involve playing a "created" Murder's Row team. I'm still cautious about how customizable it will be, but I think we're all in for a treat.

I know this may sound dumb, but one of the things I like about it is it's not so $$$-driven.
In MUT and HUT, they really pimp the micro-transactions.
But from the small info I've seen on DD, it seems that $$ isn't necessarily the way you should be building your Dynasty. It'll take time and effort and proper management, not how many credit cards you got from Mommy.

Dangit. Now I'm gonna have to buy a PS3 again. ARGH!

Bronze, Gold or Platinum. 6 cards per pack, mix of pitchers and position.

MLB Players have 10 games of use your dynasty players range from 30-40. However Nick just made a really nice change to the system to give it more strategy. I won't spoil it going to let him tell you all about in the DD blog.
