This is the first time I have ever said something like this, and I will wait until tomorrow and Thursday to form an opinion. But this could be a deal breaker for me even with all of the new stuff added. I don't want or need a quicker gameplay experience.

I made an earlier post along the lines of this concern of the game becoming to fast play for the masses. I was hoping we had a few more years before it became an issue for me. Well I will just cross my fingers and hope it all turns out well.
Completely agree. Having that much presentation and ambient time cut away to speed up the game would be one of the extremely few things that would be a deal-breaker for me too.

I want at-least the option to play a full two-hour game on my console if I want to. It's great to include options for people to speed up the game, but don't take away my option to play every second of a long, drawn out, full baseball game with full batter walk-ups, between pitch animations, foul ball tracking, etc.

I honestly don't think they'd do that to the sim community but I'll await Thursday as you do for clarification.

Nothings been cut from Broadcast presentation everything is there. We default the game to Hybrid like last year hence the 45 minute or so avg. base time for completion.

Thank you for the clarification Ramone. I know you didn't have to reply at all so it is much appreciated.

I am worried too. I like MLB The Show but it's terrible to cut away some game scenes for quick play. Various options please, SDS~~
1. Broadcast Mode (Full Game - No Cut Away)
2. Hybrid Mode (1hour)
3. Fast Play Mode (30 ~ 45 minutes)

Nothing is changing. Ramone just confirmed it a few posts ago.
