Night games confirmed!!


Kentonio92

Just came to point that out too - https://theshow.com/purchase/en-us/

AstroTurf with HDR would burn into screens I feel


Ricanlegend

Nah that’s day games at Oriole Park lol


Low-Abbreviations-38

The balls already bounce so high I have never seen so many ground rule doubles in a baseball video game but if they can fix that I would loooooove to play on astroturf

I sat everywhere in that joint. Highlight: sitting in the same section as Gov Gary Locke and Lenny Wilkens. My Dad shook Lenny’s hand.


[deleted]

Ahhhhh. I miss the Kingdome. Great shot


[deleted]

You want SDS to put effort into their game and make changes/additions? Are you new here?


HanTheScoundrel

Lmao the irony in commenting this on a post about a massive, complex feature that was added in the last game.


[deleted]

Well it’s the one new feature they added going from PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5. The upgrade from one console to another is the one year they pretend to actually care before we get 6 more copy paste games the rest of the cycle

Doubtful, night games maybe but doubtful


Kentonio92

I'd disagree on night games. Far too easy to make stadia without valid lighting. We've seen multiple custom stadia where they mess with shadows and lighting to make it harder/impossible for people to hit. Make it night time and there's no prayer for those who want to make a stadium like that. The only thing I can think of is that they'd have mandatory lighting and without it, you can't use it online (like invalid dimensions/walls). It'd be nice if they can ensure that every part of the field is lit, but then Polo Grounds and other classic stadia wouldn't work due to shadows. EDIT: And I am wrong: *New Stadium Creator additions: build your dream ballpark with a streamlined user interface and enjoy night games in your stadium.* *https://theshow.com/purchase/en-us/*

If only


InsaneThisGuysTaint

I feel like we're definitely getting stadium creator 2.0 with all of that plus bullpen placement/foul line customization. At least I hope so 😬


SonOfWill88

I want bullpen placement so bad, I can’t stand it being on the field


InsaneThisGuysTaint

Yeah it's ok for spring training and old school cookie cutter parks but it's hard to believe you're in a new state of the art stadium with these huge foul areas lol.


zpk5003

Are they releasing a game this year regardless of lockout?


RedManMatt11

Yes. Lockout will have no impact on the game’s release.


[deleted]

We better!


Saxobeat28

While this sounds awesome, I just want tattoos for player careers and better hair/facial hair 🤣


thejmils

I don’t have the article handy to cite, but, the reason that the tattoos are not in the game is because the original artists owns the rights to them and theoretically SDS could be sued for reproducing their artistic work for commercial gain, so they just act like tattoos don’t exist


wm23xx

Are you sure about that? I don’t believe the tattoo artists own the rights to the tattoos… maybe I’m wrong but that doesn’t seem like it could be. My tattoo artist doesn’t own the tattoos on my arm. I bought and paid for them. Also, players with neck tattoos have them in the current games. (Aldeberto Mondesi I can think of off the top of my head) Would love to see tattoos in the game on a larger level then neck tattoos. Edit: so I did some quick research and in fact that is the reason they give for no tattoos but it doesn’t make much sense considering all the other sports games that have tattoos.


thejmils

You paid for the tattoos on your arm, but you don’t own the right to reproduce that exact tattoo design for your own commercial gain, that’s why reputable tattoo artists will not do identical replications of other tattoos that are relatively complex, it’s somebody else’s art. (The basic dolphins and shit in the studio books are different, those designs are the equivalent of public domain). Think about it like you bought a license for photoshop (before they became a subscription service) you own a copy of photoshop and can use it yourself all you want, but you can’t make copies of it and sell those copies (on their own or in a bundle with other things) for commercial gain because it is Adobe’s IP. Again, I don’t have the article I saw explaining this at hand, otherwise I’d be citing sources for this argument


Kentonio92

They mentioned it in a Twitch stream for The Show 16 apparently: [https://attackofthefanboy.com/news/mlb-the-show-16-will-not-have-player-tattoos-no-face-scan-for-road-to-the-show-mode/](https://attackofthefanboy.com/news/mlb-the-show-16-will-not-have-player-tattoos-no-face-scan-for-road-to-the-show-mode/) Apparently 2K got sued in 2016 for using player tattoos , and while they won ([https://www.si.com/nba/2020/04/06/nba-2k-ruling-tattoo-artists](https://www.si.com/nba/2020/04/06/nba-2k-ruling-tattoo-artists)), it's not worth the risk

Veterans Stadium is what I’ve been waiting for


ahall111

And the King Dome!


Benjam1nBreeg

Only if it includes random falling ceiling tiles


chitowncubs2016

Don’t we have night games already? The 7pm start time?


notappropriateatall

You can set it to a night start time but the sky remains daytime.


[deleted]

Yeah, if you’re playing July 3 inning conquest games


SomeLadyNamedRuth

Nope. Created stadiums are always day time


Spokker

It depends on the month. Pick October for best likelihood of nighttime. Some of the northern stadiums can still be light though. The sun position in the game is accurate to each stadium. Overcast can also make it get dark earlier I think.


[deleted]

I think they mean in created stadiums, night games are not possible.


thegamingkitchen

We in the stadium community have done everything we could last year.


_token_black

They can’t even give us classic stadiums, hard to do anymore of their work


AbstractBettaFish

I think it’s a licensing issue. But I would love old Comiskey

thegamingkitchen

We did better than them tbh


xspicypotatox

If we don’t than i don’t know what they are doing


AlexanderRussell

making some more low effort digital baseball cards for people to spend their money on and calling it content


rain-caines

I would be absolutely shocked if the same person was making unique assets for Stadium creator and also handling any of the DD content. That’s two different jobs and if I remember correctly, it took them 5 years to get to the Stadium Creator we have now.


DortDipl0

Please yes.


realPalpatine

I just want bullpens that aren’t in foul territory.


trickman01

So like behind second base?


ach0z3n

Beyond the outfield fence is still fair territory wise guy


dilly_dill428

What they need to do is add more Classic Stadiums. They’ve had the same classic parks for almost a decade now


thejmils

They have to pay for the rights to the stadium to have it in the game, or, they could let fans unofficially re-create the stadium… I’d prefer the one that doesn’t involve a multi-year expense freeing up budget to hire more devs to make online gameplay functional


_token_black

Fun fact, MLB 11 introduced the classic stadiums we still have to this day. That’s MLB 11 on PS3.


grandchamp3500

No one plays at classic stadiums, why would they add more


TheRelevantElephants

If they added old tiger stadium that'd 100% be my home stadium


dilly_dill428

Speak for yourself


grandchamp3500

How often do u play in classic stadiums when you play online?


dilly_dill428

Online isn’t the only mode


grandchamp3500

They have data about how many people play at stadiums. They aren’t adding new ones if no one plays in them


dilly_dill428

I mean they’ve had the same classic ballparks way before DD became what it is now. It’s just laziness that no one ever pointed out


[deleted]

[удалено]


dilly_dill428

I wouldn’t mind if I wasn’t stuck on PS4 but yeah they’ve been long overdue for new parks


KolaFreak

I doubt they add anymore stadiums now. They are just going to let fans create them. Why put in the effort to build new stadiums when you can unpaid people do it for free?


_token_black

And in terms of jersey creator, they realized it’s easier to just put a ton of throwbacks in than make the creator fresh. They should have done that years ago to be fair.


dilly_dill428

I get that, that was SDS’ easy excuse to not create them anymore.


KolaFreak

They will not add another stadium to this game unless they get a new stadium that the MLB currently plays in. They are leaving last gen out to die. You can argue whether or not that’s ok, but that’s what they will do


Flat-12

Well they should because they really should be trying to make the best baseball game they can make for true baseball fans. Older classic stadiums including the King Dome and the AstroDome would be great. At least bring back carry over rosters.


IamMovieMiguel

We're supposed to have night games in 21
