It definitely has. I have never owned 2k and have definitely played the Nationals in the Expos uniforms in a previous version of the Show.

Yeah i think the problem might be that the style guide doesn't govern socks and undershirts, so it'd be up to the dev team to create that combination themselves and put it in as a uniform.

It sucks though, i feel like the rangers use that combination often, and it hasn't been the Show for years now.

They added a Blue Alternate for the Dodgers...interesting

Actually that wouldn't be in the style guide. The style guide has the white jersey with the blue socks and undershirts and the red jersey and cap with the red socks and undershirts as they were originally meant to be worn when these red jerseys were first introduced.

The Rangers CHOOSE to pair the red accessories and caps with the white jerseys, that doesn't mean the style guide has it that way. It's also why the Marlins orange jersey is paired with the orange cap that they never wear even though they wear the orange jersey with the black cap in reality.

None of this affects offline play.
Thank you!

One thing I hope that is addressed offline is the heavy use of the suicide squeeze by the CPU.

There are rumors they may wear a blue alternate during the season. It's the same blue alternate used in ST.

They forgot to talk about bunting at the end of the stream like they said they would, god the Chat was toxic with their bunt cheese talk.

I feel like I saw the Cardinals red jerseys in there but I could be wrong. If the Dodgers and Cardinals got these alts in then this is gonna help with the ST jersey problem.

They did talk about it. I'll get you a time stamp for it on the VoD as soon as Millennium's recap is over. I sort of explained it above in my last post too.

That Austin Hedges hit

I didn't enjoy the DD stuff but everything else was good. I know I have probably said this before but the ball physics are great this year.

One thing I noticed - I have a franchise with the final live roster from the Show 16.

When they played the game Twins vs Padres that is a newer roster and the attributes are also different from the final live roster. For example Jared Weaver just signed with the Padres on the 19th of this month - 4 days ago - and he is on the Padres roster.

I wouldn't be surprised if those are the updated attributes they will start the season with @ 45 minutes of the video if anybody is interested.

It seems that the Pirates black is much darker. Thanks SCEA!

GameStop Video vs now:

Unfortunately not. The Cardinals also have those new BP jerseys and not the spring training ones.

Needs to be the color saturation of the socks, no?

Not complaining, just curious.

Different uniforms.

Spoiler


On the left is what we worse last year. It was originally intended to only be worn the first game. We then got permission to wear them every Friday home game. This season will wear the uniform on the right for every Friday home game. Which is the one they have in game now.

At the very end they did, but only showed the brand, none of the equipment. Trinity Bat, Adidas, Old Hickory, New Balance, and Lizard Skins. Pretty much the brands we already knew about.
