You'll probably have to ask that next week during the franchise stream.

Wait a minute... they're taking away the pitch black? That sounds like a step backward. Ambient light from inside the stadium is what causes the pitch black appearance outside the stadium.

Game is looking awesome but there are a few things that caught my eye that could be improved in the future.

1. I noticed in the new fish eye camera that it tilts left and right depending on if you have a right or left handed batter. And because of the tilt when you have a runner on 3rd base with a right handed batter at the plate you can not see the runner on 3rd at all he is completely hidden. I would have liked to see the fish eye camera without tilt.

2. The lighting looks fantastic however it goes from daylight to complete darkness way too quick!

3. I also noticed that in the Rogers Centre they brought back the scrolling team logo on the LED board around the stadium. I personally think the team name on those LED boards should not scroll at all just like how it was in the early videos it should be just static with only showing animations on home runs and stuff. Also realistically those LED boards should not even have the team name over and over again on them. They are missing a lot of in game stat LED's which Rogers Centre and all other stadiums have in real life.

4. While I will say that sunset coming though Chase Filed looks absolutely fantastic how realistic is it really? Like "jake44np" said does Chase Field actually look like that in real life when the sun is going down? While I really appreciate the lighting improvements I still want the lighting to reflect the real life stadiums as close as possible.

5. And last but not least I found it very interesting what Russell said how someone contacted him on twitter a few weeks ago showing him screenshots of that new section in Target Field and they actually got it in with less then 2 weeks before they ship. So this got me thinking if Sony can get that new section in Target Field in after someone shows them a screenshot with so little time left then why can't they get in upgrades for example things that I have sent them like 5+ yeas ago for Citizens Bank Park in? Of course I have yet to see Citizens Bank Park for 16 so perhaps lots of stuff finally got upgraded.

Those licensed arm sleeves look awesome!

Would be really cool to see licensed arm bands/wrist bands in 17.

Was asked on stream and they said they didn't know

I also noticed the stat overlay where it shows the On deck batter is transparent and you can hardly see it. I am going to assume this is just happening becasue this build is still a WIP.

Hopefully that will not happen in the final game.

I thought that stadium faced straight up north? Which would be odd to see that much sun if it was that.

I know the pitcher can get a boost or decline in confidence during a mount visit. Would be cool it they can add a visual in the future where you can see how much it went up or down. Like put +4 next to the circle or something
