Misleading headline. Should have been: "MLB The Show Twitter: NO to nearly all suggestions!"

Ehh...it's like another user said.

The primary questions being asked are:

"Is THIS in the game"

"Can we now do THIS?

"What have you done about THAT?

...these are questions that they likely want to wait and answer during their blog/twitch streams. I'm waiting for the fact sheet. This is my 8th edition with this game and I've been here before. The game won't release for another (near) 3 months so plenty of time.

It doesn't help when nearly half the questions are the exact same with slightly different wording. So yeah, if it was a no the first time on custom stadiums, it's going to be no the next 5 times.

I have a feeling that the stat tracking is going to impress a lot of people this year. I am hoping the player cards are completely revamped. Which they would have to be if the stat tracking improves. Hopefully they come up with a new way of pitching as well.

Hey Russell is it too late to add a sign on top of the RF scoreboard of Yankee Stadium™? The Yankees are adding a Delta Airlines name & logo on top. I know you can't add that exact sign but something close.

These were the questions??? Jesus, are they middle schoolers asking these questions?

I understand exactly what you are saying but the money from kids playing rtts keep the game going. I don't raise much of a stink because I'm just glad they choose to include manage mode.

He was saying that tasking someone with the two year process of making a stadium creator would take them away from their normal duty, and make other parts of the game suffer. Also you keep saying the same classic stadiums we always get. We havent had classic stadiums in the game for several years now.
Important to note that the PS3 version is hardly touched and the PS Vita version is gone. That should free some staff to work on these extra features wanted in this thread. I bought a PS3 two years ago just for the Show and would buy a PS4 if the features go to a certain level above the PS3 game.

From Ramone's Twitter regarding PBR

Ramone Russell@Ramone_Russell 41m41 minutes ago PBR (Physically based rendering) is coming along. A lot of work ahead of us, but hopefully you can see the progress.

I'm really excited to see the effect this has on uniforms and equipment.

I'm excited to see what Wrigley looks like this year in the game. With the amount of detail it sounds like the team is putting into stadiums I'm hoping Wrigley got a lot of work.

Looking pretty good, at first I thought I was looking at an actual shot of the Royals dug out in real life.

Same here, the attention to detail is simply amazing...

Man, that Royals dugout looks incredible, seems like low-res assets may finally be a thing of the past. Huge thumbs up to the SDS creative team.
