The evening lighting looks so much different in AT&T Park in that background video, which leads me to believe they made some changes to it!
EDIT: Nevermind, looks like it's the shadows crawling over from later in an afternoon game.

The new scouting system looks bad ***! I'm really intrigued by the actual vs potential bars. I don't want to get my hopes too far up, but it looks like velocity, control, and movement have the potential to increase this year, and makeup could possibly determine a player's aptitude...
Being a little nitpicky, but I don't like how Ramone keeps on referring to the Braves org as a pitching factory... They really haven't developed any studs for quite some time now lol

Edit:
Maybe not...
Also, if you're into guess pitch, it looks like the ball flashes when you guess right (instead of the strike zone).

MAN!! I can't wait for march!! I'm gonna freeze myself like Eric Cartman waiting on the Wii LOL!
here's the youtube link for those who want it. I was having issue with the IGN page for some reason.

Also, man Soriano's stance still hasn't changed with that huge step he doesn't have. And Castro's stance, what is that? I really hope that isn't whats in the final game. I get what they were going for, but it just doesn't look like his actual stance. Seems odd to get upset over a batting stance, but after the new Cano stance I feel like it can take a lot of that authentic feel right out of the game. Its front and center when you are playing so how can you not pay attention to it.
And that chopper behind the plate by Sandoval scares me. I thought the new physics were going to reduce the excessive balls chopped backwards. It happens in real life, but not even close to how often players will hit choppers backwards in the show.

A great start though, hopefully it can continue to be built on moving forward. At least this development team cares about the mode and the people who play it, while other dev teams just focus mainly on online play (no offense to those who play online).
The new scouting does look awesome, and I think I can finally get immersed into the franchise mode, especially in trying to build up the Cubs.
I'm also very interested to see the new overlays/ticker in franchise mode. That will also help the immersion.

I was just going to mention both of these! I liked that about MVP. I dont use GP anymore, but because of this, I may just check it our to see how it works... ya know, for experimental sake!

Great to see the pitch type and speed flash on the scorebug before disappearing again after each pitch

Sorry to ramble, but people need to take the community on here in perspective. If it was the ONE thing each year you were deeply invested in and planned to put hundreds of hours into, you'd be just as critical as everyone on here. For me the batting stances are a huge deal as you see these animations more than anything in the game. If they aren't spot on it sucks everytime you see them come to bat after a bunch of hours playing the game. I haven't used Ichiro on my team in many years for example because his stance is so bad I can't stand to see it that often.

I understand where youre coming from but I think the issue is that it would be almost impossible to get every player to do a mo-cap on their stance and swing. I dont know if they still do, but in the past they used the "Batting Stance Guy" to replicate the stances. Some, they may even had to create themselves. (IDK, Im not a Dev). But the only way to get them 100% perfect is to get all 1200 players in studio to mo-cap and I cant imagine that it would be just that easy, as if it were easy at all.
As for guys like Cano, YES his stance, swing, walk, etc should be 100% but it will never be unless he comes in and does it himself. Otherwise it will always be impersonated by the over-animated BSG! <-- Not his biggest fan!
