Look at the difference in lighting with the sunglasses!

The faces in this year's game is going to be outstanding!

Um what's that silver piping alongside the orange piping around Dee's collar?

More good stuff. Though I wish they hadn't cut it right at the gameplay!

Russell paused on the Royals for the team select screen and I got really excited.. but then he changed it to Cleveland. Seeing whether or not the changes I posted in the stadium thread for Kauffman Stadium made it in is really the last piece for me this year!

Possible they broke a longer video down into multiple parts to be released later.

They also don't want to show the MLB Network presentation yet.

Looking forward to creating a player without the same faces.. And more facial options. And I'm really excited to see so many more uniforms.

Dee Gordon looks like he aged about 15 years since MLB 16.

Also, what's with the blue stripe on the collar of the Marlins uniform? I'm pretty sure they haven't announced any uniform changes for this year.

I can't stop looking at those face upgrades for 17. Makes 16's faces look like a 3 year old comparison not a yearly one. Great work!

Anyone else excited to see what Motown can do with these upgrades? Can't wait to lurk his CAP thread this year.

Obsessed? Nah. He's not even one of my top five favorite Marlins. I was just making an observation.

If I'm not mistaken when the Marlins first changed to these new uniforms they intended to have a silver piping alongside the orange piping on the home white uniforms. By the time the uniforms were officially unveiled they decided to remove the silver piping. I'd imagine somewhere in the style guide the silver piping still exists because I have seen the silver piping in other places even in the past versions of mlb the show. With that said mlb the show 16 did not have the silver piping so I'm surprised it'd show up in the show 17. And no the Marlins have not added the piping to their uniform for this season so that's not what happened here.

The face design engine is the same as it's been for years, so I don't see how we're going to see anything different in that regard. More hair and body type choices will help somewhat, but hopefully changes can be made to the actual face creation next year to make them truly look indistinguishable from the face scans.

Maybe your eyes need to be checked. The entire face design engine has been scrapped and we started over. Head archetypes we started from scratch, eyes we started from scratch, skin tones started from scratch, hair styles we started from scratch.
