MLB 15 The Show Stream - Licensed Equipment, Universal Rewards & Diamond Dynasty

That being said man, I do apologize for making seem like it was already confirmed, I did believe it already was, but after I tried to dig for the definitive answer, I couldn't find it. I'll concede that...

In a yearly franchise made on the same engine you can make some assumptions though. Last year the game was not 60 fps, it was in some spots (some batter walkups) and it was very obvious when it went from normal gameplay to smooth 60 fps and then back again.

So the floor for expectations should be last year and the ceiling would be a locked 1080p60 game. Depending on how well they optimize, with the new visual elements added in, I expect something in the middle of these two figures. The only thing that worries me is how the team repeatedly talks about working on the game until right before release and not just optimization going from what has been said in the recent live streams.

But I get it. I just hope it stays mostly contained to the RTTS mode. I guess it increases the overall realism, but I think it also takes away from the the gameplay to be bombarded with Adverts. I hope these adverts didn't take away development time from the online experience.

The licensed equipment will also give you money in franchise mode if you choose to add the ads.

Locked 1080p/60FPS for all gameplay and cutscenes would arguably shoot to at or near the top of the "best new features" list lol. That would be huge for presentation/gameplay/immersion. Here's hoping the optimization process goes swimmingly.

I have a 42" 1080p 120 hz t.v., can't wait to see this on it!

Why are people talking about TV refresh rates? I haven't heard of a modern TV (since like the 1980s) that is not 60Hz.

I was thinking the same thing. I'd imagine any tv made in the last decade wouldn't have any issues.

ATTENTION EVERYONE: I made a twitter account with the hopes of voicing our desire for transferable rosters in MLB The Show. Follow the account here @TransfShowRost

Post with the hashtag in the bio, #GetTransferableRostersInTheShow15 and add @MLBTheShow so they see it

Hopefully we can get the hashtag trending and get it noticed by MLB The Show and their developers. It's worth a shot, hopefully others feel the same way.

Thanks
