Ok, good. Does this include pitching animations? Maybe we didn't see new animations in that clip so that we would take notice of the stadiums and lighting. I would guess animations get their own video.

This gives me hope that the Liberty bell at citizens bank park will finally be accurate.

Yeah this is my one complaint. It's something we'll just have to deal with this year and hope that next year it's a huge priority.

Yes, and I'm sure those 350 new animations will look very good. But the problem is the thousands of old animations that are still in the game directly from last-gen that instantly stand out.



NBA 2K14 got a TON of things wrong this year, but the 2 things they nailed were player models and animations. The player movement looks lifelike and the models are picture perfect.I'd love to see The Show nail these aspects as well.

I know it probably took a TON of man hours to rebuild all the stadiums from scratch and to get the lighting this year, and it looks gorgeous. I just hope that next year they focus on animations and player movement in general, because that's the weak link right now. Everything else looks amazing. This is not me calling out the developers or saying it looks bad. I am beyond excited for May 6th, the game looks great. I'm just giving constructive criticism on what should happen NEXT, because they nailed these stadiums and they nailed the lighting.

Not sure but I would think there are some new pitching animations in the PS4 version.

I too think the graphics look great, but some of you guys act as if you are totally stunned by this video. Its SCEA and pS4, this is exactly What I expect from this dev team.

Animations unrelated to pitching styles like fielding sure, but they were pretty specific with the fact sheet. The only new stances/motions are likely the slap and Japanese style swings. The other stances/motions are likely the same from the info on the fact sheet.
