@fubar2k7 agree

Would be nice if they could include more types of weather not just clear. Partly cloudy, overcast and rain but have games with more wind effects. More heat. You can control wind speed and direction for creative stadiums also maybe snow games in parts where it snows such as Detroit, Chicago, Colorado....

Maybe even have games start in the rain and have rain clear up and turn into clear. Maybe a mid-afternoon getting like that or have games that actually start in rain. Then they get called after the 5th ending and are a in season makeup double header in franchise mode

curious how in most modes, franchise, online ranked seasons you bring in any pitcher with a stamina 25-40 theyll be "tired" from 4 pitches to maybe 20 and out of energy... this should be fixed

@rageincage007 kinda what i said

would be nice if they added injuries such as from foul tips, batters or catchers getting hurt... also players runinng to 1st can roll an ankle or pull a hamstring see them sprint at the end but pull up hurt... see an animation too walk it off or pull out of the game.... maybe even pitchers as well since they get in game they should come out to injury

Trying to find more pictures from the Japanese baseball spirit scheme of their PCI. Basically it's more of a bat and also shows a sweet spot for each different player and their ability. Obviously guys were cold are going to smaller speed spot versus someone who's a better hitter. This is image that I have saved from the game

I kind of wish they would scrap it for one or two years. Maybe that most too and just leave this game as is with massive patches or updates. Imagine if they could make the game from first person view with live video. You play the game as it is on the console but post game before game. Everything is done on video back of the '90s. Some games were video with different options of shoes for your actions in the game. You could pick and choose what to do in a scenarios. Say if you player gets hurt after the game you could choose to play through the injury. Go on the DL whatnot but also have a video now. Going to the trainer getting seen. Make it a lot more real, not just playing a game but really make you feel like it's first person. Same thing travel. Same thing with training and off season. Building your player up and also you know player interactions. You could have live video interactions with teammates but heads with teammates make friendships. You know, I really think if they could do it from the late 90s or some games had video ability to play out different roles. This might be a massive massive overhaul. And something that could become

it would be kinda like this, theres a youtube video for the game as well but you also pick in this navy game from 3 ro 4 choices each have different risk and rewards, and end of game events... same for RTTS, you can choose to stay in college or get drafred, play through an injury but also risk of injury prone

Ever. Remember in the late '90s video games some had video footage of first person view where you could make decisions in game. Imagine if they could do that in row to the show such as you start out from college. You get a draft phone call, but it's from first person view. You can choose to decline the team. Accept the team bypass it what not imagine everything in a road to the show is first person gameplay would be hell is currently but off game would be live. Video with results such as you go three for four you choose what to say in post game interviews you choose what to do if you get hurt, do you play through the injury or ride the pine you know you choose stuff. Maybe not too heavy but more realistic. You know off days go out with friends and party or hit the gym and do cardio more stuff. Just make it more realistic but also where you have a say in the long haul of your career. Playing through injuries might get you more recognition and status as a player but also long-term. You might be injury prone...

Just was thinking this reminds me of some older games of the late 90s. You know you have games where you could decide what happens and is multiple outcomes the same thing. But this could go on for probably two or three years making it sell in depth where you become a rookie and you retire say as a 20-year vet injuries. But you're also making Hall of Fame numbers and then you progress to be married with your kids. You have the option to retire and make the Hall of Fame. That will just be something amazing

Really kind of wish they could just make the weather more realistic. You know games start in rain and then progress to overcast or even daylight. Possibly snow games in Colorado or Detroit that happens recently about once a year. One or two games may be snowed or extremely cold. Really wish they could show that being a big factor. Obviously with cold weather be hard hit home runs since the ball dies in cold air. Also better cloud lighting, deeper dusk animations. You can still see games that are 7:00 p.m. start times but the game is fully dark in the six or seventh inning usually in real life if a game starts at 7:00 p.m. or 7:30 p.m. it's fully dark, probably about by the third inning in real life.....

It would just be amazing if they had you know. Maybe in-game puddles or a game gets rain delayed and then come back and play. And the fuel looks actually wet in game from start such as maybe mud spots or players slipping in wet areas or the mound pictures can lose their footing. That would be a lot more realistic as well

so players never run into each other, that happens at least once a week a few times a month... theres a ton of plays at the plate and sliding collisions.

Really really was still just see commentary. Be more like NBA 2K multiple commentators against speakers. Players of the week all stars just more in depth, especially for franchise road to the show. Even online rank seasons have a specific commentary but more specific to what mode you're playing in road to the show should really more focus about minor league, type of commentary, developmental commentary with your player. It's all repetitive for bass 5 or 6 years. Nothing much has changed

Wouldn't mind seeing player collisions whether it's players right into each other in the outfield a collision at home plate. Maybe a runner running the first base? Just more stuff to mix up the game and more realism. There's too many plays. Very good at ground ball. First base the picture comes the cover and animation shows the player runs through the other player but why is it no collision? That would just be more realism as well. Aside from that I would really like to see it overhaul in the weather as well. Games start with rain. Rain progresses gets worse. Rain to taper off and get better. A game starts overcast and turns the daylight. More realism just in general. I think with the ps5 it doesn't seem like they're really pushing the envelope when these games

@fubar2k7 you can order it through playstation asia and it works here on the ps4

@fubar2k7 correct just like that, i have the japanese baseball game and it looks amazing

@fubar2k7 I know it's a stoppage I know about your friend to but I'm talking about during the game. The umpire's actually come out and call the game and then it's a makeup double header later on in your franchise. That's the part I'm trying to get at is in franchise mode. It's either played out as a double header or if it's not official after 5 this is called off

Then game commentary needs a lot more enthusiasm and realism from hitting a almost in the park. Home run to even hitting a fault in the park, home run or throwing a perfect game or no hitter. It will just be more real with more commentary lines you know for leaving specs of action or even turning a triple play stuff that happens. You know once or twice an actual season would just bring the game a lot more realism instead of saying that. Oh, the guy is tied out at home plate by just missing it in the park home run. I really wish they could just have these lines more enthusiastic and real sounding. You know you may only hit in a franchise one or two in the park. Home runs anesthesia as you want the best commentary for that. The same thing pitching whether you guys throws with no hitter or perfect game or even if you striking out 19 or 20 guys or even a record you know 22 or 23 guys. You really want the commentary to feel like how it wouldn't real life dramatic and just key to the moment. The commentary just needs a massive massive overhaul I think

it would be amazing if they could add in rain delays and also rain outs to be a part of the game.. this was in mlb 2k8 the game would play as a regular rain game and then randomly it would finish, or sometimes you would see an animation of the umps calling the game off in full, or just a delay... this was probably one of the coolest small things ever...

@jake98833 ill say this it will be out March 16th.... 1st pics or video will be before christmas... theyll have more content afte the 2024 CES event in Las Vegas, so probally same as last year those 1 week videos to hype you up for the game...

I've played the Japanese spirits baseball game on and off for 3 years. It would be amazing if they could integrate some of the things into that baseball game into the show such as seeing the pitch and location. Just second before it's thrown in the Japanese game. Your PCI is the bat barrel. Yes but you also get a glimpse of pitch location that way. Honestly, you can try to crush one out or you can play hit to contact so that way you know where the pictures is coming a lot better than guessing...

Also in their road to the show you start out as a high school prospect. Even with the aluminum bat, the pink and sound just just off the aluminum sounds so perfect. Really wish you could play out in the show like your final high school season or maybe junior college then play into the draft get drafted but also their game has it where you either get married or have a girlfriend and life will give you a baby in a few months or a few seasons. Then you play off of that. It's very very different but very very fun.

Also, there should be a ability to sprint or decrease run speed they offer in the Japanese baseball game where instead of just running one constant speed. You can push l1 or r1 to Sprint or decrease the runner speed. That would be obviously a lot better and realistic if you could overrun bases or under run so guys don't get hurt late in the season. What add more realism?
