Maybe Create-a-player changes and additions are being worked on right now. But we can't say yet what is or isn't getting in.
I hope they added more hair styles and facial hair options. Also hoping for home/road equipment options as well. *Fingers crossed*

I found this pic online Russell of the new sign in Yankees Stadium. They're also upgrading The Yankee Stadium sign to LED which is why it's not in the picture.

I agree. Would've liked to have seen home/away options, but I'm more excited for the new brands and equipment options.

Without the ability to have music on the hard drive, how can they implement it? I know Sony introduced music via usb but that sounds like it would cause hiccups if the game had to constantly read the usb to play a clip.

It's just that from our end, all we're hoping is when it does become available, all they have to do on their end is flip on a switch and we'll be golden.

Sadly, it doesn't quite work that way haha, especially when you're talking "patch work." If it's not in 16 at launch, I doubt it would ever find its way in 16, so now we'll just hope on 17 (meaning that this summer is the year Sony allows MP3 storage & playback).

Something I wish they could do with SOTS in its current state is give us a bunch of generic music/sounds/chants to use. It would allow us to have SOME say over the things we hear in the game.
