Re: IGN MLB THE SHOW 17: GAMEPLAY CHANGES EXPLAINED!

Mildly OT:

BTW, this video confirms something I expected, but am still bummed about - no VR integration this year. If there was one thing that would make me run out and buy PSVR it would have been functionality with this series. I still have no games to look forward to for that peripheral (RE doesn't interest me), and thus absolutely no reason to purchase it.

Maybe next year as Ramone said, but at this rate will VR even still be a thing by the time '18 comes out?

Would love to see at least a home run derby edition on VR for next year, but again, 9 months is all they have to work with.

1,000 New Animations!

If anything I am praying for a high five in one of those new 1,000 animations added!

In the videos shown I have seen runners crossing home plate and tapping their helmets only to walk right by the next guy in the batters box and dugout like nothing happened! Since MLB 14 on PS4!


If there are high fives for things like moving over a runner and bunt sacrifices. I will get a little excited players are still leading off the same (based on video shown) add personality to that it will help make the game for more dynamic instead of scripted!

But I am still hoping for player locked defensive improvements!

Re: IGN MLB THE SHOW 17: GAMEPLAY CHANGES EXPLAINED!

I can't see it good on a pc, can someone explain what the retro fielding cam looks like? If it's what I hope it'll be, I'm pumped! Does it follow the flight of the ball, like if we hit a homer into the upper deck, you see it all the way?

I believe yes. think (oldschool) RBI baseball when it comes to retro mode. (x) does everything hitting, pitching, throwing. and yes the camera follows the ball.

I was thinking this same thing. This is a good thing as they always seemed small to me.

It's just the perspective they've always been scaled correctly based on the size of the players.
