Re: MLB The Show 17 Twitch Stream - Presentation & Commentary

is there a highlite show for the MLB Network??
Maybe clips of HR's or web gems from around the league??

Definitely thought this would be in this and NHL series by now.

Re: MLB The Show 17 Twitch Stream - Presentation & Commentary

A few things I took away....

1. Presentation and Commentary Stream - they had Hybrid Presentation enabled....this may be part of the reason Plesac was so quiet. If they wanted to show off Presentation and Commentary they should have played Broadcast Presentation. However, I do think Harold Reynolds sounds great and Plesac sounds like they recorded him in a hallway. As everyone else says, the commentary in this game is not on par with the 2K Series. I would much rather have that improved in the next few years than have things like DD and cards I cannot touch added to the game (I am obviously not a DD fan)....

It was a bit worrisome however that on the leadoff HR neither Harold or Plesac chimed in.

2. Nationals Alternate Jerseys - beating a dead horse here, but the fact that the fans and the NewEra ad behind home have the right colors but the players' jerseys don't.....they got it wrong 100%

3. Cespedes Sleeve - his sleeve was like poop green rather than neon green. The color was fine in last year's game, and he had a shin guard with the right neon green color. So I am going to assume the sleeve was not set to neon green color, but rather another color all together. If so that is fine, if not.....again they got it wrong AND changed it from last year.

Aside from those observations, the game looks great.

We saw more of the updated ball physics, we saw MLB Network package (which looks great), and we see the game playing overall like we expect. Ironically this stream showed us how some of the REAL "little things" are still off, even though the little things stream was last week....but aside from #3, none of these are new to the series.

100% agree with this.
Would love a full real-time view option.

I used Photoshop. They can't just slide a color gradient thingy over and voila! At least, that's what I heard they can't do. Obviously things are hex-coded, but every color is also material-dependent and light source-dependent. We're getting closer with things like grass, so hopefully over the course of time they can find the way to take care of these as well.

But again, I will never question their abilities of doing it. I just don't think it's that easy to do, and sometimes there are restrictions based on the style guide. I don't think I've ever said that before, but I understand when excuses can be rather legitimate.

I'm really waiting for the NBA 2K franchise to do this, actually. If there is a flashy dunk or something, the replay still shows up immediately. They should wait for a timeout or foul to show that replay and talk about it.

As for MLB, they are now programming instances where they can mention previous plays, so now it's a matter of cuing up the replays with those every so often as well.

Remember when this used to be a presentation option? Whatever happened to it? I guess hybrid took its place.

It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

I agree it should be more bright

I agree 100 % with you. Why they can't come up with the correct shade for certain colors is beyond me. It took them 2 years to fix the Blue Jays unis; the blue was way too dark. Now, it's the Nationals alternate jersey which is burgundy instead of red. The right shade of red for their regular unis, and a different shade of the same color for the alternat ones! Go figure.This folks has nothing to do with the style guide. But I noticed that the above picture on this page shows the Nats jersey to be a bit more ''redish'' than the picture you see on page 1 of this thread. So which is which? Since Ramone said that the ''art''aspect of the game is closed, we will have to live with it this year. Other than that, the game appears to be much better than last year.
