What Does MLB 13 The Show Need to do Next Year to Satisfy Your Baseball Gaming Needs?

[aces01]

Some player-specific animations would be something to look into for the future as well. It would be awesome to see the guys like Hunter Pence look awkward while fielding while guys like Cano make the game look easy.

It would help diminish the repetitive part of fielding if some guys looked a little different. Another thing to address this area would be to add more fielding animations. If a fielder gets a short hop, it should handcuff them a bit.

It would be a dream come true to actually have to time grounders and get the good hop instead of just standing there waiting for it.

Overhaul RTTS

I want to play for my dream team and don't want to have
to play thru 5 or 6 seasons to do so.

I want to play with most of same MLB players that SHOULD
be still on that team. Way too much movement of rosters
before I get to bigs. Teams are somewhat unrecognizable
in 2-3 years.

The awarding of points is sometimes laughable, almost as if
someone who never played the game decided what deserves
points & how many. How about rewarding hitting for the cycle
with 100 pts or multi-homers games x100 per homer or
getting more than 3 hits in a game. You get the idea, real
accomplishments should be rewarded as such.

Quit telling my power hitting 3rd place hitter to hit and run
in the first inning - my God !!

I have a lot more to add for RTTS but that's a good start.

I would like for the way RTTS plays to be an option for Season or Career mode. I am talking about how you would have the option to just take your at bats & skip through everthing else, not have to pitch or field. You can play a game in just a few minutes that way and maybe get through multiple seasons before the next iteration comes out. Also, the option to skip to next inning or half inning is great but when I get to the late innings and go to my bullpen this does not work for me. I want to have the option to just have a righty pitch to the first righty for example and then bring in a lefty to pitch to the next 2 lefties for example with out having to actually pitch for them. I hope I made that clear. In other words, I guess I want another option, which is to pitch(automatically) hitter by hitter instead of by inning or half inning(although this works well until I want to start going to the pen.

There is a reason it's called ROAD to the Show you know....

Haha, I realize that Knight, but when you play every game
that could literally take me 2 years of steady play. I am an
old man and may not have that much time left. LOL Besides
the fact Sony may want me to buy the new version. I will
never realize my goals before next version comes out.

I understand and respect your opinion but I would like to get
to my favorite team and recognize the players when I get there.

Love what you do for the game Knight.

I needed an emoticon there.
It wasn't really a comment on how you want to play the game...just a little ribbing.
Too bad they couldn't add a "fast forward" into the future where you could sim a few years quickly or a sim to MLB feature.

On the field....the ball physics just need some tuning....everything else is close to perfect for me.

Further tuning of collision detection (which was a big improvement on 12) would be a nice enhancement. Fielding animations where a player runs into the wall but showing them crash in smoother, just tightening up the great animations that sometimes go ary in close quarters.

And I am very curious about the Franchise and RTTS love 13 is going to get.

Enhanced play by play and color (Steve Lyons should be interesting) as well as further improved/enhanced franchise presentation.

I can't wait for some real information on the upcoming release!

Not sure why, but i think this will be added this year now.

1. Stadium specific home run animations, like the fountain at Comerica.
2. An option to create a history for created players in Franchise. It would be cool to create a player who wasn't a rookie. Maybe be able to input stat history. This would also be cool in RTTS. Start off as a 10 year vet trying to keep his job.
