MLB 10 The Show vs. MLB 11 The Show Player Model Comparison Screenshots

08:04 PM - December 15, 2010 by Russell_SCEA

I took these shots using yesterday's build no camera trickery both shots were taken using the in game photo feature. The only difference is one shot is taken in MLB 10 The Show, the other in MLB 11 The Show. The MLB 10 shot is the one on the top.

Can you be more specific? What about the proportions looks off to you? Seems more then a shoulder adjustment to me.

No problem. I have a friend who can't see much difference between a run-of-the-mill hamburger and a dry-aged prime New York strip.

I honestly was expecting a "from the ground up" overhaul in the sense that the new player models would jump out at me, but I think it's okay though anyway. As I think I said earlier in this thread, the important thing is that the body proportions are more human-like. This will allow the animations (which might have had to be redone) to look much better than they did before. Players with different weight should be represented better as well.

I see nothing but a plus for this one. A little closer to perfection is always better.

Any Yankee ones in there?

I just hope the crowd sizes are spot on. So if there are 22,000 fans at a game then you see all the other empty seats. It always seemed like regardless of the crowd size the stadiums always seemed to be full.

The screens look great... I'm not going to miss the old t-rex sized arms.

They were redone from the ground up!

They just were not that far off to begin with originally. Not like some on here would lead you to believe. So they fixed what was needed to be fixed, while it may appear subtle, it was monumental as a whole.

All the animations have to be redone and retied to the new models. It is a HUGE undertaking.

Oh haha I definitely know that, I've been saying that in response to people questioning exactly what they changed by the comparisons. All I meant was that you'll see some things that are largely unchanged because they didn't need to be unchanged. The other things are drastic improvements.

Ahhh, gotcha!

Agreed!

-I think people are really going to be able to notice the new models when video comes out. With new player models; fielding, hitting, and pitching animations will now be far more accurate. At least I think! when folks think about player models, they think about new uniform models and everything else. Their uniform textures and cloth movement were pretty darn good last year so there was no need to upgrade those...

You are exactly right!

That is one part of the game that is on the top of my personal changes list. Animations are very important to me.

Have you seen this abundance of animations on any next Gen game or are you speaking from the past?

You do realize that this game has more animations than any baseball game ever? They're always adding more, but there are physical limits.

30,000 plus but who's counting

Hey I'm just wondering, what's the size for a typical animation? I guess not many of them last longer than two seconds (in empirical timing, that is except for pitching windups), so I mean does it take up huge chunks of space or would two seconds of audio equate to more space used, or is that not a fair/natural comparison to make at all?

I was just wondering, as I know ESPN NFL 2K5 was absolutely loaded with thousands, if not tens of thousands, of animations for the limitations the PS2 had. Heck, even The Show on PS2 must have tens of thousands of animations as well.
