Major League Baseball 2K10: MLB Developer Insights - My Player, Part I

That's because it's not the same view. Some people will use this traditional view, others may like the new one this year.

I know its not the same view. Some people were worried about not being able to change the hitting view.

Ahh, got ya. That's a bit unfounded. No reason why you can't. They didn't do it in MyPlayer in NBA 2k10.

Since you closed my thread regarding the view when catching fly balls do you think we could find out if you can catch fly balls with that view in a regular game? Also, maybe they could share some light on how we follow the ball. That would be appreciated. thanks

Blitz, that might get answered in the Dev Insight on Fielding coming out next Tuesday.

Sounds pretty cool. I feel like I'm really going to enjoy being a reliever and being a position player. I like the idea of just jumping into games when you're making an appearance since this will be much easier to implement than it was in NBA 2k10, where you have to adjust the quarter length as your playing time increases to keep stats realistic. I think I can get into this My Player mode more so than I could with NBA's.

Re: Dev Insight: My Player Part 1

Love this fielding Camera ! It made my day I cant wait to start my 5-tool Outfielder for the Tribe.

Dang,where to start ... I really like the atmostphere here. The crowd, Billboards and ads, the dirt and textures, dugout... (this is minor league too)
Am I the only one who is impressed by these screens? & what is truly going on within them

Trust me you aren't the only one. I REALLY REALLY REALLY LOVE the screens...
See...

The fielding view alone has me more excited about 2K's career mode than RTTS mode...
Can't wait to grab it

You know that " don't mention the other game " door swings both ways. I'm not defending Road to the Show because i don't own stock in SCEA or SONY of Japan, so don't take it there. I'm just reflecting what some of you guys are doing here.

Re: Major League Baseball 2K10: MLB Developer Insights - My Player, Part I

Ahh Im so excited to try out My Player. Gonna make both a SP and a CF. The whole "tracking the ball in the air" thing sounds really cool

Just one more week or so haha.

just to know...
in rtts on the show, if you play as an outfielder, do you just run to a spot on the ground??

It is a behind the player view as well, and you do run to a spot,l which you have to in My Player as well, since you can clearly see a marker in the picture.

The insight was thin on the information, and had more marketing in the sentence structure. I wish it was more in depth, and hopefully a review or hands on can cover it more.

in 2k's my player you dont run to a spot on the field. you follow the ball and catch by your judgement as described in the insight.

i was wondering ( just incase u mis-understood my question), if on rtts there is a marker on the ground that gets smaller and smaller, and you have to get under it to catch it, or is it more like 2k's mode will be?

to me the marker doesnt look like it was there for telling where the ball is going to land...

When playing as an outfielder, you don’t just run to a landing indicator spot on the field, you actually see the path and the flight of the ball and track the ball in the air the entire time. It is very intuitive and works and feels exactly as you would expect it to. With the player perspective camera, fielding in our game is more immersive than it has ever been in any baseball video game.

It is going to be a riot to judge depth flight of a ball in a 2D flat image. (I know they are "3D" graphics, but there is no depth perception on a 2D screen you are looking at).

There is still a marker there, and thus I am more than positive said marker is to aid you to get to the ball position.

They mentioned nothing of that marker arrow, which I am sure isn't there for looks. I want to know what it does. Obviously it is ball flight, but the game has to lock the player in for the catch, or it is going to be a riot to watch.

As for the Show, there is a marker, there is an arrow, just like you see in 2K that shows the ball flight.

It does not say there is NO landing indicator, just says you "just don't run to it", you see the flight. I am sure the landing indicator is still there, just out of view cause of the angle.

As for the Show, there is a marker, but you don't really see it unless you are near it, there is an arrow, just like you see in 2K that shows the ball flight. And I am sure there is a "zone" for catching the ball and triggering animations as well. Just because they don't show you it, doesn't mean it doesn't exist under the hood.

ok, i see wat u mean. hopefully we still get the chance to track the ball down without too much help. i want the experience to track the ball without too much aid.
