Unless you’re a cubs fan. No Seiya Suzuki. Yea he’s in the player vault but it won’t feel right to me not using the SDS one. I’m picky I know.

-- Pitch repertoires seem much better. Seeing more pitchers with circle changes, slurves, and different primary pitches.

-- The 3D, team-specifc presentation overlays are awesome

-- The Braves 2021 World Series banner can be seen in right field at Truist

-- The fan cams that pop up between innings are a really cool touch

-- Some of the statcast figures are fun to see. Spin rate, pitch break, etc.

-- I've seen some new no-doubt home run animations and they look great. Had an awesome no doubter with Eddie Rosario that looked very well done ( https://twitter.com/i/status/1509801783899701257 )

I'm a Guardians fan, but J-Rod is my dude. I've been investing in his cards before they skyrocket. This kid is gonna be a top 5 player.

Very brief initial impressions from just 5 inning of play…….

-Gameplay is so damn good (as usual)

-Graphics are largely the same but framerate is a lot better

-Sounds of baseball are vastly improved and make the ambiance of a game a lot more realistic

-new commentary is the biggest single improvement to the overall feel of The Show that I can remember in a long time, it was much needed and they freaking nailed it

So i played a full game. Mets vs nationals. Love it so much. The presentation is superb. The commentary is a breath of fresh air. No more dead spots. No more over lapping in talking. Gameplay always thought it was great. Love now there three different hitting. Timing zone and directional. Happy timing got its only thing like the old days. The new zone anchor hitting is interesting. I kinda dont get it so till i figure it out, i will stay on timing. No disrespect to anyone but idk how they say this game isn’t gorgeous. Maybe its my eyes but the game look good on ps5. Happy there is a roster update already. So Freddie is on lad. U do though have to add pujos to cardinals. Luckily there a guy who got cut, so that was an easy swap. Disappointed that the 25 man fix from years past isn’t there. U can’t go straight into regular season in franchise mode. U have to go thru spring training cut the people then start. Love the new google stat. I know people are upset with the no buck s. But shoot to get all the coaches but one i feel that was good. I didn’t see if 1st base or 3rd base or hitting or pitching was real. I just look at the managers.

Thanks for sharing that! Bryson Stott's lookin' a bit chonky, but by and large the prospects look great!

Though, even as a Giants fan, I gotta admit that an "A" potential for Bart is a bit generous at this point.

Played a quick game and the presentation is outstanding!
The sounds of the bats and gloves really sound cool.
