Other than the aquaruim that stadium is ugly!!! Its like a new tropicana, the homerun thing is horrendous and that little centerfield triangle is screaming GIMMICK! Hopefully this isn't the final product.

I'm not saying this is one of those things, but there have been times when I've heard "old build," and yet the problem still appears in the game. This isn't just for The Show, by the way. Every game I run into has posts like that.

Besides, we can only judge what we see. I like to take people's words for things, but I'd rather be disappointed sooner than later.
"Reserving Judgement" means that you will not judge till it comes out.

I was referring to those critiquing, and having a "sky is falling" demeanor.

Big difference. Especially when I know these are "dev tool" moments to capture highlights for the trailers.

Like I said, I personally did not see those shots while there. In fact, we all commented on how it seemed to have "lack of power" when late on those pithes.

Oh, I know. I'm just saying that there are a lot of things I don't even bother mentioning, either because I take the "old build" approach, hoping it would be fixed later. Sometimes, those don't end up being fixed.

And no one ever said the sky is falling, they just report what they see.

This may be the case. I don't know why they would even bother with making things like this questionable though, if that makes sense. If they want to remove doubt (just like the analog stick thing), it would be nice to show the "right things," so to speak.

This is very good news, and I am glad that it might be the case where this wouldn't be something which happens very often, if at all.

Anyway, I'll stop talking.

LOL, I've just decided to take the wait and see approach... meaning, I'll just suggest that people wait and see for answers to their questions.

I don't know how some people enjoy video games. Yes, I do want realism for sure, but what I'm looking for is numbers. If someone like Reyes winds up with somewhere in the neighborhood of 10-20 HRs at the end of the season, I'm not going to lose sleep over the fact 2 or 3 of them may have been unlikely to happen IRL. Now if he hits 30-35, then those "unlikely to happen" would bother me. Now I didn't say I liked them, it just doesn't bother me to the point it apparently does others.

That's good for you, but the majority of people on a site like this actually do care about the game have proper bat to ball physics. The batter/pitcher confrontation is the single most important aspect of a baseball game, and if it's broken the people here won't be happy with the game in a way a more casual gamer like yourself would be.

Did you even read my entire post, or just the parts that suited how you wanted to reply? I don't think we've met, although you apparently know about me to categorize me as a casual gamer. If you frequented the roster section for the '10 Edition (were you even around then?) you would have noticed that many people found enjoyment out of my '86 roster set I did. How many "casual gamers" do you know that have spent the many hours required to do such a thing (you know, other than me of course). So like I said (here comes the part you didn't read), I do want the game to play realistic, which it always has moreso than any other offering lately, but I refuse to get hung up on something that happens infrequently to the point where I don't enjoy the game.

I never stop enjoying this game. I am a different person pre-release than I am post-release. Once I have this game in my hands, it is all good and fun till the day is done; then it's 12:01, and again I'm having fun.

I didn't know if you were referring to me by the way, but I have been called out for being a little too harsh to seemingly enjoy gaming. Just like you, people here don't know me; those who do (and I've met a share of OSers before) can vouch for my... how do you say... "normalness" in person?

Besides, I have yet to complain about the Reyes thing, if you look over my posts carefully. I've mentioned what probably shouldn't happen, but I wasn't the person who brought it up. All I didn't like was that the "old build" comment sometimes doesn't come into fruition even though they say that. However, at the same time, I'm really hoping that this is just a matter of being an "old build" and that they're right. Obviously, nothing would make me happier. And of course, even if it didn't, I would still love this game till the end.

EDIT: Wow, that first bit rhymed.

Comparing someone making a final judgment on a game and pointing out something that looks troubling in a clip released by the developer seems a bit harsh.

And if the developers did indeed stage that event for the clip, it seems like an odd choice.
 
# 131 Joey @ 02/07/12 11:00 AM
It wasn't directed at anyone in particular. I know you make far too many positive comments to not enjoy the game!

Did Reyes just get jammed on an inside fastball and hit an opposite field homerun?

I thought the new ball physics was supposed to fix that.

And for anyone questioning whether it was a HR...look at the left fielder drop step and run deep towards the pole.

1. If it wasn't a HR, why did they show it right before the HR feature?
2. If it wasn't a HR, why is it so close to a HR? That ball should not be hit that deep to the opposite field regardless of whether it cleared the wall or not.

You guys should really start reading posts. It's like a broken record in here and it's annoying.

I don't have time to read through 14 pages of posts. However, your response has alerted me to the fact I'm opening a wound that was perhaps nearly closed. Therefore, I won't advance the discussion further.

You don't have time or you're just too lazy to read ?
I'm going with time.....some guys have 9 hours/day to spend on OS...others, just 9 minutes/day.

But you have to read the posts in order to debate. It's not that hard to click on the little button beside the topic title and read from the last post that you read before.

Right... some people aren't as unlucky as myself working in front of computer all day long to work and check OS frequently...

While I wouldn't blame people to not thoroughly read all the posts, when you post something, I feel you should at least do *some* homework before you actually do so...

otherwise, you don't need to post yourself, since the chances are that your point has been discussed already by others, you are not putting a tiny extra effort (search? or ...read at least a few posts?) to join the ongoing discussion.
 
# 139 CMH @ 02/07/12 03:27 PM
All right, my bad. I tried making a moderation comment and I think I started something. Not my intention.

Let's go back on topic, please.
