Ehh, not the kinds of little things I was hoping for.

There's a "Critical Situations" toggle on the calendar in Franchise Mode. Hmm...

Such a tease!

The opening shot focuses on Danny Duffy - whom I just mentioned I was really hoping to see with a face scan this year - but because of other players in the way, and intro graphic swipes, I couldn't get a look at his face!

Happy to hear about the expanded SOTS, but I was really hoping for some "generic music in ballpark" slots. Would love to be able to plug in 15-20 songs for a stadium, and let those randomly shuffle between innings for the innings that don't have a specific song to play.

Don't get me wrong, lots of good stuff. Just not my favorite or most desired little things. A little thing is that the numbers still aren't fixed, so unless they are going to surprise us Thursday, it looks like we might be waiting until 18.

Noticed some different NB shoes though...

Ugh! All I want is a sneak peak at SunTrust Park!

# 8 breakfastcat @ 02/20/17 12:19 PM

Twice as many SOTS slots is fantastic!

It took me a minute to find it but now I am extremely interested what this is all about.

Little Things, Part 1, I hope this is true. This video moved away from its original meaning of little things, and little was the nuanced things you only saw because of gameplay situation that was in context be it commentary, gameplay, OSD's, and some fan reaction ect...This part 1 did not resemble "little things" to me because they are readily available on display, little was always reserve for the unseen.

The Metrodome, Shea Stadium and Yankee Stadium make their PlayStation 4 debuts.(not a little thing)

Challenge of the Week has a new scoring system and more prizes this year.(not a little thing)

Keuchel's Korner, Sunny Siders, The 7 Line and the local military at Petco are in.(little thing)

Over 500 Diamond Dynasty cards will be released throughout the season, most are new.(not a little thing)

Double sounds of the show music slots from 512 to 1024.(not a little thing)

Sounds of the Show adds additional home run and run score music slots.(cool but not a little thing)

Sounds of the Show pitching music works for starting pitcher intros and relief pitcher entrances.

These strike me as features, not little things.

Ugh....Twitter videos suck for me. They constantly buffer to the point I can't even watch them.

# 13 bacon96 @ 02/20/17 12:29 PM

Bat brands: Old Hickory and Trinity Bat added.

And for those of you who know what the brand 'Lizard Skin' is, their equipment was added as well.

Judging from the opening Royals scene, it doesn't appear so.
BUT Russell has also said that many of the videos are spliced together from multiple builds, so I'll continue to hope until confirmed one way or another.

with name on back yes, but when no name they should be up higher. Basically we need to see a Yankee.
