MLB 15 The Show Stream: Character Artists Deep Dive and a Full Game

[ShowTyme15]

For anyone wondering. Today's stream will be at 2:15 pacific time.

Russell,

Are the player ratings pretty much set at this point? I am biased, but Kluber deserves to be higher than an 88. He was filthy last year not to mention the Cy Young.

Thanks.

Again I do not hate the current presentation I just think it got old and needs a pretty big refresh. The best thing that I can see that was added to the presentation for 15 is the new "Inside The Show" feature which I think has a lot of potential. But that is just an audio presentation feature. What I am looing for is more of a visually presentation upgrade!

Completely agree. No matter what video game it is, a publisher's marketing team's job is to write things that make you want to buy the video game. It isn't the marketing team's job to confirm what is true and what is a lie. People ought to know the game by now

When did you hear anything from the "marketing team?"

The triple by Werth in the sixth looked realistic, the fielders didn't take their times as they have in years past. - Top of the first, Werth hits a bullet down the line. Single. Again. The most unrealistic thing in this game is the singles down the line. They happen constantly in this game and literally NEVER happen in real baseball. Outfielders are set up WAY too close to the line, preventing doubles, knowing that even on a ball in the gap, they're too fast and can track down gappers too. - On dropped third strikes, in real baseball, the catcher ALWAYS moves out of the baseline to prevent throwing the ball into the runner. In the show, this never happens. - Bottom of the first - Pagan hits a deep fly ball to the warning track that absolutely should've gotten over the left fielders head, but didn't. Why? Because the outfielders are way too fast and cover way too much ground. - Bottom of the first - Posey hits a sharp grounder to the left of the second basemen that looked like it was going to get by. Queue the suction and it becomes a routine ground out. - PLEASE STOP WITH THE ASININE BAT FLIP AFTER EVERY FOUL BALL AND MISS! - Bottom of the second - Strasburg gets injured and walks off with the trainer. He's not wearing a glove. Next scene, the manager comes out to the mound and . . . Strasburg is still there. - Diving stops seem to be way too prevalent again in this year's game.

I turn the fielding speed down to 0. It helps some. Highlight dives and catches still happen too often though.

Forced by who and why?

Might be time to move that San Diego Studio across the border to Tijuana.

You don't really expect me to elaborate on legal matters right?
