Then, they didn't even bring it up in the stream. Their big things are new modes!

Yeah, they scrapped them. Seems logical.

Some interesting things in this one, but also a bit frustrating to watch because they had some major difficulties synching up side-by-side comparisons. The guy controlling the MLB 15 picture was basically always out of sync with the guy controlling the MLB 16 picture so we rarely got to see the same surface under the same conditions at the same time. It was actually pretty hard to see what they were trying to show us aside from the fixation on padded wall textures and the rock formation in Anaheim (which is sort of the poster boy for PBR).

If you are a graphics nut and like people dropping "specularity" and "foot candles" and "single shaders" you'll like this stream. Also, if you ever wondered what this game would look like with a bunch of T-1000 liquid metal players playing, this is for you.

That metallic setup was crazy!
Shadows look so much smoother and real. Interesting stream. They mentioned these are just the first steps in PBR land. Super excited for this years game but also for what they will bring next year!

That would really really suck if they did. It was announced and listed. Please say it ain't so Joe. I was looking forward using he OS all time roster set with them.

Ramone mentioned the classic stadiums in the stream. He said they redid them this year. He also mentioned that the reason they don't have specific spring training stadiums is due to licensing. They did not spend much time discussing classic stadiums but he did mention them. They are in as advertised but we did not see any shots of them.

I'm pretty sure Slab was being sarcastic. Believe they played in one of the classic parks (polo grounds, I believe) in one of the videos/streams from the past weeks.

He was being facetious
