My "next generation" MLB The Show Wishlist

[slimm31]

So with all this talk of the next generation i put together some things i would like to see in the show. I am leaning more towards immersion with my wants, and do not expect to see them (if at all) in The Show 14, but would hope that with this new generation we go beyond just updated graphics and get more immersed in the game. Here is what i mean....

GRAPHICS
-Lets get drinks, hot dogs, nachos, foam fingers, rally caps, face paint on the crowd. Its at every game and a detail that adds immediate depth.

-How about ball boys/girls, bat boys/girls, cameras and camera men in the camera pits.

-Put more vendors in the isles.

-Bring the dugouts alive. Sunflower seeds on the floor, bats on the wall gatorade (or sports drink if licensing is an issue) containers. Crumpled up cups, all the things we see on game day.

-Dynamic weather. Going from sunny to cloudy, overcast to sunny, clear to rain. Just adds to the atmosphere.

SOUND

-Would love to hear the bang bang plays on the field. When a SS goes in the hole and fires to first for the out lets hear the glove pop AND the feet hit the bag. (and thats for any bag and any close play just used first as example)

-Impacts from fielders hitting the outfield walls, or climbing to rob home runs.

-An overall enhancement to the in play sounds (bats hitting the ground, gloves popping, players sliding etc)

PRESENTATION

-MORE STATS. Especially during at bats. example. You are pitching, 2 men on, 1 out. Lets get a stat for the batters avg for the season in those situations, or lifetime if its a franchise. Vice versa, give the batter a stat that shows the pitchers era in the same way.

-More dynamic hot cold. Tracks down to the at bat and count. So if you are hot against first pitches but cold when the count is 1-2 it reflects that.

-In game updates. If a record is being broken, a no hitter being thrown, lets get a in game switch to the action. example. Its september you are 2 out of the wildcard, in between a pitch matty v goes "looks like we have an update from blah blah (mlb splash screen comes up shoots to other game) matty v is back "this 2 run home run by (insert name) just put (insert team) up 4-3 in the top of the ninth. As you know this game has playoff implications so we will keep you updated. (mlb splash screen back to your game).

-More post game celebrations. Maybe come up with five to 10 different post game win/loss scenarios and randomly have them occur. You would still have situation specific (walk off home run/hit, no hitter, big win) but on those games that are blow outs, or just another game, try to mix it up so that you dont just automatically skip the post game.

-Improve the dugout interaction among players

Those are just a few of the things id like to see come about this new generation. Would i like to see it in 14 of course, but im a realist. I know that it will take some time for them to learn the new hardware. But they have earned my respect for what they have already done and makes me look forward to maybe seeing some of this stuff in the coming titles.
