Turtle neck logos were definitely in for several years. And the player actually reminded me of Aaron Miles who played in St Louis around a decade ago lol

Any clue why the undershirts here have red sleeves but navy around the collars? So odd.

# 111 PVarck31 @ 02/07/17 06:51 PM

I really hope we get the Progressive field in The Encarnacion screenshot and not the older looking one. The newer one looked awesome.

I'm sure we will though.

This pet peeve of mine was still visible in today's video and I point it out so that SCEA is aware of the issue so that it can hopefully be corrected one day.

The piping around the collars of both the Marlins and Indians jerseys should be the same thickness as the piping around the sleeves. Here's pics from today's video as well as from real life. Hope this helps...

FYI the issue exists on all the Marlins and Indians jerseys that have collar piping not just the two jerseys shown here.

Small thing here....but I hope the clip of Carlos Santana's walk to the plate at the beginning of the video (:10 mark) is part of some of the new cutscenes/presentations that they are rolling out. I feel that some of the basic scenes of batter walk ups, pitcher entrances, mound visits, etc. could be updated from the same ones we've had for a few years now.

Looking forward to all the vlogs and twitch streams!

I would love to know the reason that this

Looks like this...

Instead of this...

And why the Red Sox jerseys in daylight look like this washed out shade of brick red...

Instead of like this...

If this is a style guide issue then there's a bigger problem than we think. I just hope this stuff is taken into consideration sooner rather than later.

Besides this, I loved the video and all the improvements. Can't wait for Thursday!

THIS! As a Marlins fan, this has been bugging me for years with the new unis. And as someone who has been lucky enough to see the style guide myself, I can tell you that the piping is supposed to be thin around the neck on all the jerseys. I really hope this can be fixed.

Damn I never realized how off those red Sox uni's are.

I wouldn't believe it unless you heard that from Russell or the SCEA team.

So glad about the new throwing animations hopefully it fixes the issue with the batter getting a infield hit because a infielder doesn't charge or takes too long to throw the ball.

# 120 Culture Rot @ 02/07/17 08:03 PM

Can someone point me in the direction of the Retro Mode Vlog?
