It stinks as a fan, because I love the look of that uniform and they wear it often, yet I never want to use it in The Show because it just doesn't look right. I'm sure fans of other teams with colors that aren't quite right feel similarly.

Absolutely. I cringe at the thought of Mariners fans having to use that hideously dark green Mariners alternate that should be a bright teal and for Brewers fans with that sky blue Friday throwback jersey and Padres fans with those olive green brown jerseys.

Finally getting a chance to sit down and watch the stream.

Really loving the new catch/throw animations. Everything looks so much more fluid.

Those animations are pretty good, I just hope there is commentary tied to the animations as far as fundamentals. I think there is always a missed opportunity in all sports games to not have some commentary about how and why that animation was necessary. They added a lot of animations, there should be talk about type of throws and catches and why this particular player can make that type of play and if the player is out of position talk about why he can't make that type of play.

I cannot wait to dive into this game and see all the new animations and hit variety play out before me. What little sample size we have seen in the stream has me excited to see how it all plays out over the course of a 9 inning game and 162 game season.

Just watched this video again and noticed something strange. Throughout most of the video Indians players had navy socks. But when they were showing the catcher meter thing Lindor had red socks.

I wonder if this video is a combination of builds?

All videos are captured using different builds, just the nature of game development and tight deadlines.

With how much we have been told that the style guide is the law, there is no way they would be using a different black for some teams versus what is in the style guide. And it is easy to look up and see that all of these teams are using the same black, it is well documented.

So either they have been lying about having to stick to the guide and you are right, or something is getting messed up with the lighting making the colors seemed washed out. And since the Pirates are not the only team with this issue, I would wager a bet that it is the latter.
