This should be what they work on first, instead of treating it like an afterthought. Afterall, that's what we're playing for isn't it? To win it all? MLB10 was severely lacking in this area. I want to be rewarded for playing through 162 games and winning the championship/pennant for once. Don't get me wrong, I love MLB 10 but franchise mode is the meat and potatoes of this game so I'll wait until we here about improvements to this mode before getting excited. Sent from my Dell PC using my keyboard.

This the very first bit of info to come out... the have already addressed player models, dynamic weather including rain and day/night progression. They have included accurate jumbotrons in each stadium. I took the 3D and move as just small perks to the vast improvements they've made to atmosphere, analog gameplay and everything else. I would be surprised if your not impressed with the franchise stuff this year because they are also aware of how important this mode is to those who play the series.

I was rather content with franchise last year, but what I'm really looking forward to (someday) is the ability to import a past franchise from an older game. It would make the justification of a purchase much, much greater.

Dude I've asked for this every year for the past umpteen years. Not just here but with Madden etc....
That, a print functionality and a global editor.

Maybe one day. If anyone gets it done eventually, it will be SCEA.

- I would like it if they could pull off something like the other game had with the "MLB Today" feature. I liked just firing the game up and playing the days game with the real line-ups and pitching match-ups.

and automatically loading current rosters at start up! I've seen this asked for just a few time here though... lol

Co-op mode was introduced so Met fans could play together in the hopes of actually putting together a winning season.

Yeah I would love an "Mlb Today". I don't have time to run a franchise. Even when I do, I try to make it as realistic as possible with the lineups.

Wouldn't it be sweet to invite someone to play in your season or franchise game for co-op .....

Really hoping for some type of an expansion draft mode/feature within the franchise..would put this game over the top imo

For me.... They, SCEA, have already went so far past my expectations that it's well over the top. But I know what you're saying. I almost feel guilty if I mention things not in or not quite right. SCEA is freaking top notch.
