Guys, I just played MLB 15 for awhile and then switched right over to the show and I can't tell you how bad I think MLB 16 is compared to 15!!! The framerate is just atrocious!!! I mean 15 had some issues in that regard but 16 is just downright awful! I can't even enjoy the game before I have to put 15 back in. It sucks because I love the series but at this point it's really hard for me to continue to play 16. I really hope Russell is reading all of these comments we post and also hope there is really something they can do to smooth out game play!!

That's strange, I haven't had any problems with framerate, online or off. Everything is smooth for me and IMO '16 in the past few days beats '15 by a longshot. And that's not just in the framerate, graphics, animations department.

Same here. Games been smooth as silk.

After a week of play I have come to the conclusion that this is a definite upgrade with many features and improvements IMO. I love the new ball physics, seems so much more realistic. Some of the improved player motions are amazing, especially the dives made by infielders, so much better. I see they may have done something to pick-off moves. I have yet to throw one into the stands..yeah! Now, when you play in the rain, you can actually see the rain and the cut scenes to city shots and surrounding areas is too cool. I have yet to notice any of the stuttering some folks are talking of, at least to the degree where it would be annoying.

Now for my dislikes. Flesh tones are too dark making some players unrecognizable. For my home team Rockies, being a season ticket holder from their inception, their black "vest" jerseys have never had purple sleeves. Why did you change these from the black last year? The changes at Coors Field did not make the game. They raised the right field wall the entire length of the bullpen to 30 feet as well as the left field corner. Would like to have seen that. I think they got a little carried away with the amount of "dust" the ball kicks up too. And then I don't know if this is a glitch or of it is how they display it on the board at Wrigley. They show the picture of the player batting, and then under it, says "due up" which I would assume it referred to the batting team, however it is the team in the field. To me, doesn't make sense but , oh well.

All in all, the game more than delivers this year for me.

Zone hitting is definitely easier than it has ever been for me this year especially with fish eye camera. Getting contact on high pitches are no longer an issue for me. I am thinking of playing on Hall of Fame but I need a few more games to judge.

the fielding framerate is downright terrible at Tigers stadium. It is also terrible in Angels stadium

There is a stutter when fielding and throwing to first.

This definately needs patching

[Jaystar8083]

NY Giants I totally agree! Just bothers me so much. Happy for the people that don't experience the stutter! Would love to be one of you guys. Lol
