Shout out to Ramone for passing on the word about the runner info, while base runner is on. Much better with it above them so we can see both the runner and the fielder. Appreciate the quick turnaround my dude

I noticed this in another stream or screenshot, but I love that the players are now wearing their team uniforms in the edit screen. Will be so much easier to select good color combos instead of trying to remember what "Team Color 1" and "Team Color 2" are for each team.

Hopefully get to setup both home and away accessories (similar to 2K).

Hopefully we can see our team uniforms in RTTS as well.

Did anyone else noticed how many bats were broken? Like 4-5 in the same inning.

Aside from that little detail, great job SDS. The game look better than ever!

Ah man...I didn't catch that.

Still no indicator to let you know that a player is stealing a base. This has been a problem for several years now. I hope it's possible to finally fix this.

Edit: Something as simple as the respective base icon in the scorebug flashing red to let you know he's stealing a base would be a great help.

# 68 Steve_OS @ 02/23/16 09:23 PM

Love this.

Interesting franchise information about morale and changes to progression - pitchers not as overpowered in progression.

I would hate that, sounds like a videogame gimmick. The crowd yells when a guy is stealing it's pretty obvious. I like the way they do it.

The crowd yells for a lot of other reasons though. How am I supposed to know that means a base is being stolen? Sometimes the crowd is still cheering from a previous event, sometimes they are just cheering a random cheer.

The leap from the crowd making noise to "a base is being stolen" is not a logical one in any capacity. I'm glad you are able to decipher it but it is arbitrary, and more importantly, inconsistent, at best.

# 72 BrianU @ 02/23/16 09:38 PM

It's a different kind of yell when it's a steal though. It stands out to me. Maybe they could have other cues I just wouldn't want some overlay or graphic I like the minimal look.

# 73 underdog13 @ 02/23/16 09:43 PM

That Compacted Scorebug is a thing of pure design beauty.

# 74 DetroitSportsGuy @ 02/23/16 09:52 PM

Ramone - Please tell me that the Broadcast camera view for hitting is in the game. I didn't see it when you ran through the hitting views on the stream. This would be a major disappointment. I have pre-ordered and have been a loyal customer for years. Please tell me that this has been kept in the game like years past!

I am pretty sure it's still in

It would be listed under "In Play View Offense"

# 76 RLebron12 @ 02/23/16 10:03 PM

I'm not gonna lie when the info for this game was first coming out and some pictures were released I was skeptical that they didn't improve the graphics that much from last year but after watching these streams it looks WAYY better. The lighting from the roofs, the sunset and shadows on the players look amazing! I'm also super hyped for all the new authentic equipment in the game! I see they've added new uniforms..really hoping they added the Black Alternate Giants uni's! I would think Kirby would ask to get that squeezed in [emoji6]

There's no such thing as a broadcast hitting view. Your referring to "ball in play camera" it's still there.

Lots of silly questions in this stream! I wish someone asked about if we can import players into franchise this year rather then is Josh Donaldson in the game or, does someone have his hair

I noticed the clay/ dirt texture in Minnesota looked incredible. Why is it not like that a cross the board? Some stadiums clay look flat while others look textured.

PBR perhaps on for dirt only in some stadiums in latest build??
