MLB 15 The Show Fact Sheet Impressions (Roundtable)



In case you missed it last week, the Fact Sheet for MLB 15 The Show dropped with all sorts of new information on this year's game. In addition, we're going to learn even more later this week in Sony's first stream of MLB 15's gameplay on Twitch.

So now that we know what The Show is bringing to the table this year, let's see what our staff thinks about how this year's game is shaping up.

Obviously Ben didn't read the full list of features because there was some information on commentary in there.

Was bummed to see no info regarding online, especially now that we pay to play online with this current generation and 14 was an absolute mess

I have to echo Ben's comments regarding the way SCEA release their information. Whereas the trend often sees developers giving features, that more often than not we've seen before, a fancy new name, here we have a compressive list to digest at our leisure. There are some comments regarding increased commentary lines although we're unlikely to be blown away in this regard from the details given so far. It seems the be Radio Show maybe the only notable improvement in this particular area of presentation.

I can't wait for this game to drop. As a sports gamer this was not only the game that converted me to baseball games because I never play them but it was also the best sports game in 2014 IMO.

That's a good point. I rarely play any game online so I never gave much thought that you guys that do are paying for PS4 online play now. In my mind I still accepted Sony's less that stellar online experience because it was free even though I know on the PS4 you have to have the PS+ subscription.

I've never had an issue with Sony's online service. My only issue is with the games I played. For instance, The Show.... online mess, offline gem. Madden, game just sucks; FIFA, they took out the only online mode I enjoyed once next gen hit. But CoD's always been decent to me.

Exactly what I was thinking, the original fact sheet had an entire section on the commentary upgrades. I see the fact sheet over on The Show Nation no longer has this section in the fact sheet though.

Still, it is there:
Quote:
Play-by-Play, Commentary, and PA Improvements
(PS3 & PS4 Only)

Improved strike zone accuracy with new pitch locations for on-the-black calls and borderline balls & strikes
Improved hit call accuracy through new field zone locations and deeper parameter logic

Improved deep fly ball logic that allows more diverse calls on potential home runs, and prevents the user from hearing calls that give away the play result before it occurs
Improved foul ball logic to allow for open-ended play-by-play on playable or nearly playable balls, prevents user from hearing calls that give away the result
New batter introductions and pitch result content for the new skip batter walkup system (speeds up gameplay, tightens play-by-play)
New system for handling safe result calls that includes proper acknowledgement of the runner’s slide type
