MLB The Show 16 Has Officially Arrived, Post Your Impressions Here

[vegasmike]

progressive field in cleveland is very patriotic this year with 3 United States flags. i also notice when checking my stats in online vs mode, i used 3 different teams and it shows up all combined on the team i last used?

otherwise good game overall. they made a lot of improvements, but there are some bugs they need to fix.

In Miller Park on Bernie Brewers slide, there's a huge sign that say "The Show". Why? One, it isn't realistic. Two, what are you advertising for? We already bought the game.

Its advertising for people that haven't bought the game. The people that see the still photos or video of the gameplay that are unfamiliar with the series and ask "what's that?"

If people are looking at photos of the game online, I'm pretty sure they know what they clicked on.

Anyways, I'm really enjoying the game for the most part.

I'm curious tho, are they ever gonna facescan the players? Some of these guys look like they're straight off of PS3.

Some of that advertising is replacing real-life beer sponsors (or tobacco, in the case of the Polo Grounds) which The Show can't use and keep their rating (E, I assume?).

There MAY be a fix for this but I doubt it. # of objects is a processor issue. PS4 just can't handle all of that crowd. You'll notice framerate is fine on spring training and minor league stadiums.

It may be an efficiency issue in the programming but more likely the processor is the bottleneck.

Is The Show still on the green monster?

I love how All Star Baseball I think had fake sponsors in the stadiums. I think MVP may have too?

Unfortunately Yes, "The Show" is still plastered across the green monster. I figured the massive billboard (SHOW16) above the green monster would have been sufficient advertisement.
