Correct. It is all about developing your talent, etc. building a dynasty. And paying lots of cash for short already developed talent to fill in quick holes when needed.

But you also do not need any MLB players of you do not want to. They are costly. And are very short in use.

Someone asked about Cap editing.. I also have some uniform stuff.

Under Team Customization, you can edit

Cap
Base Color
Bill Color
Under Bill Color
Bill Edge
Top Button Color
Piping (yes or no)
Piping Color
Cap Logo

Uniform (Home and Away)
(Not in this exact order + more options might be included that I didn't take down)
Sleeve
Piping Color 1
Piping Color 2
Shoulder Style
Shoulder Color 1
Shoulder Color 2
Collar Style
Collar Color 1
Collar Color 2
Pants
Batting Helmet
Socks
Shoes
Batting Gloves

Catcher Gear is also there.

Basically there's sections within sections, a lot of stuff to edit. I didn't get a chance to take it all down. I probably got side tracked with a game + everything else that was going on that week. Hey you would too!

So, I am the guy you saw for about 5 seconds in this video. I am also the guy who made the GT.TV logo from scratch. I assure you that neither the GT.TV or MLB The Show Logos are uploaded. For a lot of reasons, we don't allow users to upload images. However, I do believe that with minimal time invested, you'll learn to duplicate whatever you want from scratch. Honestly, I'm not that art savvy and I was able to make that GT.TV logo in an afternoon.

So you're the guy in all red walking across the desert? That's pretty cool. I wish I had a role in a video game.

This is what I was thinking too. But, all of my RTTS players since MLB 09 have pretty much maxed out their potential.

# 250 UMhester04 @ 02/13/12 11:35 PM

how many logos can you make and put onto the uniform? If you can only put one on a uniform, can you have 2 logo's and have one be the logo you put on your home jersey and the second on the away jersey?

# 251 mmorg @ 02/14/12 12:15 AM

Question about player cards. So let's say we have a player who in the default roster set is a pretty mediocre player. He has all 40s in every rating. But he starts having an MVP year and during roster updates he keeps getting his ratings adjusted to reflect that and by the all-star break his ratings have received a significant boost in the roster updates and is now about an 80 overall according to the rating bar. Will this be reflected on player cards? If I draw a card for this player will the ratings be based on the default rosters or will they reflect the updated ratings according to the official roster updates?

How many games in a "season"? Are all players game-ranges equal or will a starting pitcher have a 1/5 of the range because of how infrequent he'll actually play? Is this going to be available on the Vita - I think it's not, but I don't recall the official word.

You can create edit logos and styles for each of the following independently, or you can copy/paste them from place to place:

Main Logo (dimension 1x1) (this is the logo that appears in menus, on replay swipes, etc)
Hat Home (dimension 1x1)
Hat Away (dimension 1x1)
Batting Helmet Home (dimension 1x1)
Batting Helmet Away (dimension 1x1)
Jersey Home (dimension 2x1)
Jersey Away (dimension 2x1)
Jacket Home (dimension 2x1)
Jacket Away (dimension 2x1)

Just skimmed over some of the posts. Do you buy a pack of player cards and 'open' them to see what players you can use for a specified time?

The reason I ask is you would have the excitement of 'opening' a pack of player cards, hoping you got some solid cards to use with your team.

I would still miss the disgusting stick of chewing gum.

Thanks Kolbe! I know I wrote this down while I was there, but I think I must've written it in someone else's notebook lol.

A game played is a game played no matter what the position.
