They were joking.

Why did they make is so yellow, I know everyone is going to say because that lights are on, but it is not how it looks. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...orth_Upper.jpg

While your picture depicts a different time of day, I do agree that the game shot is a little too orange. Meaning too much light (bloom) is coming in from the LF opening at the top of the stadium. It almost makes the roof look translucent, when it's actually all reflections. That's said, it may be a PBR issue.

I see what you're saying. I was at work before and our computers won't load pictures. So I just looked at it.

Looking like we aren't going to be able to have solid white Nike batting gloves this year. Looked like we can't change the colors of the spots on the gloves. Most of the Yankees wear solid white gloves with a black Nike logo.

I'm curious if the Fisheye cam was developed to supplement those who liked to use the batter's eye cam.

I faced another bum who used the batter's eye cam to taunt.

Yeah I do use a pitcher camera. That's mainly the problem. I'm completely blind as to what the runners are doing.

Logo color is tied to the knuckle this year unfortunately. It was tied to the leather last year. Should help a bit this year, but all white Nike gloves with the black swoosh might not be 100% feasible. May have to go all white again this year.

I can tell you unequivocally that the foul ball slider worked in MLB The Show '15.

However, that slider is not the sole determinant in foul ball rates.

I wonder what MLB version will show us fans walking up to the concession stands and ordering/eating food.

Graphics are ridiculous... the lighting is the best it has ever been...

Even the dirt looks fantastic.

Incredible amount of details are being put into the parks as well.

Great work SCEA.

# 211 vegasmike @ 02/24/16 09:17 PM

quick question for anyone who might know: in online ranked games in 16 are the uniforms going to be random or are they going to be how it was in 15?

Yes you can earn tickets like that

thought in stream it was stated tickets cannot be earned vs friends?

# 214 Skyboxer @ 02/24/16 10:01 PM

I really just want to be able to use player lock in franchise mode without having it switch to the RTTS cam.
Was a possible addition for 16 so holding out hope.
Either way I'm pumped for release day.

I think it was stubs that can't be earned like that. But I'm not 100%.

I stumbled upon something that Blue Jays fans will love to hear

My computer lagged for a few seconds later in the stream while Ramone was going through stances... It froze and I saw ROBERTO ALOMAR in there so im pretty sure he is one of the new LEGENDS

Youre welome

I'd hope it was both to be honest, or at least at a reduced rate. I'll admit I've done some achievement boosting and other things of that nature in the past and given how people play The Show online I have to assume that day one there will be tons of people trying to find ways to rack up stubs/tickets. Remember the community challenges from last year? One of the easiest ways for people to do this is coordinate in multiplayer games. i.e. "Get 100 headshots with sniper rifles." Well it's pretty easy to get that when your friend constantly runs up to you so you can headshot them, then you switch roles.

Since they indicated that captain missions are tied to innings played i.e. "Play DD with players that have 75+ clutch." Well why don't I get my friend in a DD game so we can jam on X as fast as we can to get through innings quickly. I have to assume they've accounted for this and adjust the rewards when playing with friends or maybe disable the captain missions and only allow them for ranked online games.

Random question: No CD this year?

# 219 JayD @ 02/25/16 10:19 AM

Will we still see CPU controlled teams starting mid/late relief pitchers in the starting rotation in franchise mode? This has been an issue for the past few years. I believe it has to do with injuries but when you look at their roster there are spot starters sitting in the bullpen while a late inning relief pitcher is thrown into the rotation.

They didn't have a 2nd one like years past I think.
