Nothing really groundbreaking to me here, I'm not against any of the new additions. Hopefully the immersion factor is higher with the in-game presentation.

Was really hoping that we would have in-game highlights to other games going on in franchise and maybe a better daily recap than Inside The Show(hopefully well improved).

No it was created in MLB 14 and hasn't been touched since, with many aspects of it broken that need to be worked around. Its unrecognizable compared to offline franchise now.

It's more concise and just has generally a better flow to it IMO. They showed it off somewhere in the presentation stream - just look for the stream's extended stay on the daily results screen and you'll find it.

I wasn't really happy seeing a player sign a contract and immediately get traded. Any chance this could be addressed in a patch?

50k play online franchise while 500k play offline franchise. Imagine the outcry if these additions were reversed. Gotta concentrate on what is making people buy the game.

That could be because online was literally unplayable until last year. Let online breathe for a few years and let it be stable before throwing only 45k played it last year.

DD becomes a huge part of the game and online is now playable.

How many of those 500k ended one the same day they started one. I pay for a PS plus membership, I love competing with freinds for free agents, the division, draft. And the mode has gone untouched for 2 years and it's BROKE. I wonder why people don't play it??

Would you play offline chise if
Schedule was identical
Injuries don't work
No position player fatigue
No hot/cold streaks
No minor league games
Every day is opening day, with patches all over the field
Presentation is set to fast. No presentation. Win the world series? Cool, box score.

They talk about customizing divisions. If I put TOR in the NL Central. Nothing changes. They still play an AL east schedule.

I also would love to know more about this! This would be huge for me. So much more realistic than being injury-only! really hoping!
