It was not realistic or fair to have left-handers play right-handed in these positions. And if you wanted to tilt at windmills in RTTS, wouldn't you want that choice? There are no generated left-handers, and development time invested was probably @1-2 hours.

Then the argument is that this should have been in the game many years ago.

I wouldn't have known anyway. I wouldn't have a reason to put a lefty there in the first place. Didn't even know they became right-handed at that point.

You have to remember online is usually ignored by a lot of OS writers. They probably play one game and give up on it. I personally think MLB TS is the most fun online game.

I hope they fixed this for outfielders... I recall there being balls hit to the warning track that I had ZERO clue where to run. Just from awkward camera angles. I tried OF and after a few games gave up and went back to infield lol

There is supposed to be a new fielding mechanic this year. I'm assuming it's the same for RTTS/Player lock. Hopefully we'll get some info on this soon as I'm really interested in seeing what this was all about. I just hope it's nothing similar to last years. I didn't like the way it was last year either.

The new fielding camera is for non RTTS/Player modes only. Those modes use specific camera angles.

And I want to see something you could do with the money you make. Remember "The Crib" in early nba2k games? Would definitely like to see something like it;

Thanks Mr. Russell for clarifying. Are the cameras for the RTTS/Player lock different from last years RTTS camera? Primarily the outfield camera? Thanks!!
