Feature Request: Interactive Umpire Mode for Online, Co-op, and Custom Games
-
I would love to suggest a feature that could bring a completely unique dynamic to MLB The Show: a dedicated Playable Umpire Mode.
Having the option to step into the umpire's shoes would open up incredible possibilities for the community:
Online 1v1 Matchmaking: Allow a third player to queue into an online game as the home plate umpire, calling balls, strikes, and close plays at the bases.
Custom Games with Friends: Let a friend act as the umpire in custom lobbies or mini-games while two other friends play against each other.
Realistic CPU & Mechanics: Implement a system where the CPU players react realistically to calls, combined with precise camera angles behind the plate and motion controls/button prompts to make mechanic calls feel authentic.
