MLB The Show 17 Video - Walking Through The New Features, Including Create a Player

[Cowboy008]

That was a great video. The players that were made just by using the random button looked good. Can't wait for the OSFM roster to come out so I can start a new franchise.

Huge change if I'm not mistaken they finally got the Indians collar piping the same thickness as the sleeve piping so I'm praying it's fixed for my Marlins as well. Don't like the ST warmup jacket pullover things in there, would rather have the BP jerseys or the Spring jerseys. There are 3 now and I feel like they chose the least useful one as the one they chose is not for game use. I love the listing of the uniforms, I love the specifying of the year of the throwbacks and I love that a player models it and that uniforms are already combined and that picking individual while still available is only an option because it's not always necessary. And I love the improved coloring of the uniforms as well. Also, I'm not an expert on the Indians can anyone confirm based on the video if the socks were right or wrong in this one?

There are no BP jerseys anymore (real life). They are now pullover half sleeve sweaters.



These are replacing the old BP jerseys.

You're right I stand corrected. So in real life now they have the BP pullovers and the spring training jerseys. And while I know the majority of spring training jerseys are just regular in season alternates that have different numbers and names and spring patches on the sleeves I'd rather have that in the game because when I play a spring training game my team could wear those. The BP pullovers will never be worn in a game so it's odd to include them in the Show.

Another quick thing about warmup jerseys, does anyone know why we can't use warmup jerseys in the Practice mode? Players don't do batting practice in their home white jerseys, if we can't select the jerseys for practice mode then the warmup jerseys should be the default setting.

One thing that concerned me. It didn't look like you could mix and match uniforms. You could only choose a home set, home alt set, road, road alt etc. that's going to be very disappointing if you can't mix and match.

Uniforms were listed as complete sets for convenience BUT at the bottom was an option to select uniform elements individually by pressing square so yes you can still mix and match.

I prefer it this way as mixing and matching should be an option but not the default setting.

Yes there are ST jerseys (ST Jerseys are normally used as BP jerseys, but have now been replaced with the pullover sweaters.). Hoping the ST jerseys are actually in the game and not the pullover. Most ST jerseys are alternates for teams in real life. The only problem is with the way the slots are set up teams like the DBacks wont have one to wear since their red alternate was int 16. KC Road alternate is their ST top in real life (Just using KC as an example for now).

If I had to guess the reason we can't use warm ups in practice mode has to do with uniform slots.

But the video at the this start of this thread showed the Indians with the pullover and not the ST Jersey, not sure if you caught that.

I hope you are right about the spring training jerseys being in. It would be a major letdown if they didn't make it and those pullovers did. I feel like our only hope for certain jerseys like the Twins new red jersey from last year and the Giants black jersey to be in is if the new spring training jerseys from last year make it in. Since they didn't add any uniform slots.
