It was already decided upon that they weren't going to do roster transfers this year and they weren't changing this late in production. They mentioned it a few times in the various threads.

While I can appreciate the enthusiasm, posting in how many threads???, your efforts were ill-advised.

But its on the list for next year, so we only have to endure, hopefully, one more year of not having rosters transfer.

The gift that keeps on giving. I haven't heard "sike" for about 20 years so thanks for that.



And you totally missed my point. You have the devs here. ON THIS SITE. You don't need a twitter handle to get their attention which in your words was your point....

^Not to mention, he got a reply from a developer less than 15 minutes later. That's getting their attention pretty good.

"Sike" is pretty vintage.

I'm new to the show. I bought the first illustration in '13. I'm still playing '14 on the PS4. So, maybe I can understand that lifelong fans are getting tired of the same presentation, graphics, etc..

Most fans who I talk to and on this community still have a blast playing the show. As well as myself. It's still the best sports game I've ever played. Just give them some time and I'm sure they will wow you again.

you guys updated Camden yards the flags looks great Adam update looks good he usually shaves before opening day you guys should add the ability to update hair and beards throughout the season I know 2k does that only thing I could think to add is adding cal as a legend next year would be great and maybe Harold Reynolds to commentary and a pa announce for batter walk up in example now batting and crowd gets excited would be amazing you guys do the best work wish you guys could keep hairstyles and beards updated throughout the season don't San Diego best studio !!

Pretty sure the PA announcer already introduces batters.

Yeah, guys this is not breaking news. We were begging for this a couple of weeks ago and Russell_SCEA answered this same thing.

The devs have no idea we want this feature. sike

You seem like a nice chap, but spamming the same thing across multiple threads is more likely to have the opposite effect than the one you want. Not to mention it's probably like a TOS thing. And baiting a mod...kind of a triple play you're working on here in keeping with the baseball theme.

He has my support just for using the word "sike" I rocked the 80's.
 
# 414 Hockeynut99 @ 02/23/15 01:06 AM
Nope "sike" is the correct spelling and meaning. Anyway I can't wait until we get a trailer soon on stadiums and graphics update. Sike, I can wait.

I think speak for a whole lot of us here when I say for MLB 16 The Show the developers should make the "broadcast Presentation" feature the number 1 priority. This would include flashy new Stat overlays including new HR Stat Overlay popup and better in between inning due up Stat overlays, Beginning of game stadium fly ins showing fans walking into the gates and buying food, better commentary including announcing of the starting line ups for both teams. Maybe even pre and post game shows from a studio. And many new camera views like seen in that summer wind trailer. And like others have said adding a lot more Batter walk ups, swing motions, better non robotic pitching motions and brand new player models would really go a long way in making MLB The Show really feel fresh, different and new.

For me MLB 14 The Show is almost perfect except for one very very very big part of the game and that is the
"Presentation" with all the power that the PS4 has and seeing what that other baseball video game has done with it's Presentation on much less powerful game systems I just expect a lot more from the Presentation in MLB The show on the PS4.

My statements are just my feelings and maybe others and also to help the developers improve the game!
I support this message. This ad paid for by the show presentation fanatics caucus of America........

Too add onto this all new presentation and player models is a must to bring this to a current gen game level and as I mentioned last year this series should have new screen overlays and menu looks each season as it adds alot to keep things fresh .

As far as the stream goes lighting seems more refined before the sun goes down and really pops very nice but nighttime from what we saw before they fast forwarded looks the same with that same yellow hue so hopefully we can see more transition inning by inning next stream ? .

Many say the game looks the same as MLB 12 visually and animations wise and I kinda agree but fly ins , new player Models , announcing , animations and cool things like in the Summer wind trailer would probably help lessen those feelings as everything else is pretty solid .

I agree 100% with everything you said, especially the robotic pitcher batter animations. Look at pro yakyuu spirits 2014 on YouTube (See link below) and watch the pitcher-batter animation and ball movement after the pitch, that's the direction the show needs to go and this game would be 100X more fun to play, for me this is the #1 priority next year.

When MLB 12 first introduced Broadcast Presentation I was so excited to see that they were making strives each year to revamp and freshen up the presentation experience but it seems like they have gone into neutral over the last 2 years in this department which is a real shame

Improvements to commentary is a step in the right direction and the score bug in 15 is a thing of beauty and made me so excited to see what other awesome new presentations were added but after seeing the video I was very disappointed to see that they basically recycled the broadcast presentation from 14 including the exact same intro and music which is a total letdown

Broadcast networks like ESPN, FOX and MLB Network revamp their broadcast presentation and intros every season to keep things fresh because they know that these things are important to viewers and the show should take the same approach for the gamers that like all the presentation bells and whistles of a broadcast to be new each year

At the very least we should be treated to a new broadcast intro every year

^I would have to question you about FOX, I am pretty tired of seeing that football robot player. That thing has been there for years!
 
# 420 aguero90 @ 02/23/15 08:53 AM
I agree 100%! The radio show will add a new shine to the show, but no matter how many lines get added to pbp, I just think a new team would be great! I've said this so many times, but we need a guy with a different voice, and someone who can naturally bring excitement to his calls. Think Indians radio, Yanks radio, or Tigers radio man. When Jon Miller did the other game, I was actually excited when I hit a homer, because Miller made it special. He made you feel like it was a big moment. ps to all who are in Ny and Nj area, Sterling will be on 101.9 today at 10, and I'm going to call the show!!
