Currently, we don't even know how it's intended to work, let alone that it does work.

True, but The devs behind the show, I have a lot of faith, they have earned the benefit of the doubt. I cannot see them announcing this and it not working well. They track record is impeccable.

Wonder how it will work if a guy retires so his player model is no longer in the next version of the game, but he's still in your roster file. So if in MLB 14, i don't finish and Jeter is still on my team but retires in real life and isn't in MLB 15, will his player model still be in MLB 15 when I load up my MLB 14 file?

I have no idea how it works so take this for what it's worth, but I imagine every player model has a bunch of code in the background that creates him. So every feature, from eyebrow color to nose length has a value assigned with it. If you feed the game all the values together, it can spit out the same model.

I have no idea how it works technically either, but I imagine that you're right. I would guess that it could work similarly to the custom rosters like the OSFM where each player's model is represented within the roster even though they technically do not exist naturally on the disc.

Probably already asked, but is the carry over stuff a PS4 exclusive or will it be possible on PS3 as well?

The Show never fails to impress. Features that I only dreamed of are becoming a reality.
