Damnit...my biggest pet peeve...

The devs just don't want you leaking videos of gameplay on an unfinished product, so they take away this feature. This alert won't be there in a finished game and that's why you don't have any games that block screens. It happens when I play the Planetside 2 closed Beta. Don't worry about it, it won't be there in the finished 15.

The menus look improved this year, but to me The Show has always been top notch in loading menu screens quickly. NBA 2k had the best menus on PS3, but it looks like The Show is better now. I love starting up the game and being able to edit a roster, start a franchise, and play a game within a few minutes. EAs menus have been awful for so long and it's beyond frustrating.

Those will be there in the finished game.

The AI doesn't know these players by name, it's only code it's going off of. It's trading player A for Player B.

That is an awesome idea. I'd add milestones or something like major story lines. I can't see myself listening to it for the score recaps but would listen in for "big" stories.

The game looks great. The guys playing it make me look good at this game. Which is saying something. Russell stick to the P.R

The flow of the game just moves so much better and the lighting is really well done and the real equipment look really nice. I also like the variety of flags this year and the jumbo trons look really nice.

It does talk about career milestones already (e.g. Miguel Cabrera picked up his 3,000th career hit), and even players being called up, etc.

I just hope we can match the white panel helmet with all home uniforms, orange, black and white home Jerseys. Last year you could only match the white panel with the white Jersey, the orange and black home Jersey you had to use away helmet no matter what. In real life they use the white panel helmet with any home Jersey/uniform.
