It doesn't look "cheap" by any stretch...I like the design of the display, just curious about the naming convention that is listed for the SP.

I don't know the difficulties they're having with front jersey numbers, but I think it's a program that has to include every jersey. The reasoning would be that in real life the numbers and the jerseys are one item. In the game they're not. The jerseys would be one build, then the numbers programed on top of that. Add to that the numbers must change per player and they must be in a position where they do not overlap any logos on the jersey. That would include all jerseys and all size players. It's just not as simple as it would seem to be. The fonts would probably be easier to address, but then what is on the style guide?

Was hoping to see some things fixed for the Metrodome, but at the least the roof is fixed and it's in MLB 17.

remember when 2K would have 'saltalamacchia' in a much smaller font just to try and fit it... or cut it off 'saltalam.'

madison might not be the right call, maybe bumgarner instead?

First initial and last name would seem to make the most sense. I have a feeling this is just a WIP thing, though.

Really excited about the expanded slots for SOTS

I can't play the game without it, now that it has returned.

Now the variety of chants and yells will be really good.

My first couple of days with the game will be a massive SOTS set-up lol.

All I need to see here was the doubling of slots for SOTS.





I have SO many files stored up from over the years, that it sucked having to concede some of my classic stuff for modern authenticity. Now it will be much better (though, admittedly, I'm one of the weirdos who could easily surpass even the 1024 slots). Definitely a big addition for me!

The new jumbotrons at Busch Stadium look great, the Cardinals red doesn't look washed out, and Grichuk grew his hair out along with Matheny.


Can anybody tell if Carlos Martinez has a face scan? My video was too grainy to tell.

Did adding a lot of SOTS slots cause any frame rate issues for anyone else last year?

I can surpass that many too.

I feel like I remember some menu lag with SOTS filled up, but I don't recall any in-game differences.

What are the chances that we get the Jordan brand this year?

Saladino needs a bit more depth on that mustache!

 
# 57 sydrogerdavid @ 02/20/17 03:41 PM
I know it's not likely to get added because I don't think it was posted in the MLB 17 stadium forum, but is there any chance that the OT18 can be added to the Cardinals bullpen in time for MLB 17?

I think it's been posted about before, maybe way back when the Show Nation forums had stadium feedback threads. I'm not sure.

Granted it was a quick shot, Grichuk looks to been completely overhauled. And Cmart looks improved from what i can see, maybe its the new facial hair on his model. Only time will tell.

Cool to see local military at Petco but where are they located in the video as I could not see them.
