BLECH!..

I would literally get ill if I had to look at that dorky, dumb as a stump mug every time I put this game in.
Well.....I wind up putting the game in and not taking it out for months, so I guess it wouldn't matter.

[quote=Shinyhubcaps;2038750482]They have been working on 3-D models of Major League mascots, yes. But again, I highly doubt that is the only improvement they make in a year. I think it's a fun little addition that should not come at the expense of anything else.

But we'll hear more on these additions in December. For now, be patient. I doubt any of you is more than 5 years into your RTTS...[/quote

Ah yes...patience, the greatest of virtues. But seriously...I am in no hurry to start thinking about next yrs edition....I am thoroughly immersed and engrossed and diggin' this years game....other than maybe jazzin' up the peripherals and a few Franchise additions...Im liking this game alot...as always.

We all know that. Were just having some fun with it since that's all we've heard about thus far.

So who knows. I hope to heck they are revamping the signature stances and motions, as it's one of the most complained about parts of The Show. If they leave the same inaccurate motions and stances in the game and add nothing but mascots and rain, I will be pretty disappointed.

If he didn't drop you any hints directly in the PM, then I don't think we'll get any revealing news for at least another month or so. But they're supposedly going to try & update alot of the older awkward looking signature motions. Hopefully it'll be a complete personalized animation overhaul, with some player specific swings thrown in as well.
I'm fairly confident they'll come through from what Chris said in that last post.... we'll see though.
