Re: MLB The Show 16 - New Road to the Show, Showtime Details & Tentative Reveal Dates

I may not use the perks. I may not use ShowTime.


But RTTS is a single player mode. One where you can buy training points, get equipment to boost your stats or even just let you set the sliders and difficulty to the point where there is no challenge at all.


I am not sure how adding in perks and Showtime is cheating all of a sudden.


And I say this as a person who plays RTTS almost exclusively.


My favorite addition is the ability to play a series of games without constantly reloading the menu. That alone is the feature that made me say "I will buy it this year"

I echo the sentiment that perks are nice in concept but some of them are pretty weird. I'm not sure how I feel about always being in hitters counts or what have you. I know "we don't have to use them" bla bla but just saying I think more interesting ones can be created. I'd like to see the perks be focused on boosting your abilities instead of manipulating the game (as in, manipulating parts of the game unrelated to you). Like "no errors will be made for 10 games" or "you will always be successful when base stealing"
etc etc...

Regardless, it is a good direction to go in, for RTTS. The Show has a gazillion modes that involve playing baseball games, so I never was overly enthusiastic about jumping into a mode where all I did was play more baseball, except as one guy. As RTTS continues to become more unique from other modes, it will become even more appealing and popular.

Perks should never ever be guarantees. They should compliment and add character to your created player. Give the player something that makes him seem unique.

Strong Wrist - Give you a greater chance to check swing

Power Hitter - Higher chance you will be thrown a ball first pitch

Fleet Footed - Chance to gain a temporary boost of speed when running bases or in the outfield

Base Stealing Smarts - Higher chance you will make it back to base on a close Throw over

I had "Don't touch the green button" from Rocko's Modern Life - Power Trip in mind.

Ok, so for the Show Newbies (like myself), what exactly are 'Sounds of the Show?'

It allows you to import music in the game and assign intro, stadium, walk-up, and bullpen entrance music for each individual players.
