Rainouts and double headers. They are long over due! Also not a big deal if this doesn't make it in but I would love to see some better collision detection.

If I remember correctly wasnt it in 09 when you let the controller sit for a while
Thats what they meant

why is everyone forgetting adding Manager arguments on certain plays?

Now I can finally have my own offline franchise with more than just my brother passing the file around. We could get up to 6 hardcore members to do an offline franchise and just send the file around via sendpace that is if filesharing is still a feature.

And speaking of Franchise, there will be the ability to finally play Franchise mode with up to 30 players. "We have a lot of fans who want to control every team, every lineup, every injury … they actually want to go in and manually injure a player just so their franchise at home can have the exact rosters of real life," says senior designer Kolbe Launchbaugh. "The time they spend on these rosters and inside all of these various modes really blows my mind, and it's something we all take great pride in as we're working on the game."

30 teams controlled is great. Can't wait to see what else was added.

Thanks SCEA
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year Everyone

The only thing that really does something for me off that list was Real Time Presentation. I really liked what 2K9 did with that last year and I think this will be a really nice upgrade this year. I also liked the fact that the replay system seems to be improved. Maybe we can actually pick camera angles and create the same type of replays the game shows us on HRs.

But not hearing about any defensive improvements has me really worried. Hopefully they will outline improvements later but the defensive gameplay in this game has been stagnant for years. That's arguably the biggest area this game needs improvement in. I don't play online, don't do Road to the Show and only play as a one person season so all those improvements might be great for many, but useless for me.

I'm a little confused. It says it "defaults" to the presentation we're used to... so are there two presentation options? Or are we getting the older presentation throughout the game, with the real-time stuff mixed in at the end of plays, innings, etc?

Also, daylight transitions... yessss. Now, do we have weather??

What does real time mean, and, I thought it was already in 09?

Sounds like some great stuff is here and coming, and I'm sure they didn't mention everything. I'd be curious about weather also.

Nice to know we can "manually" injure players (that should make certain people here VERY happy).

Be curious to see if commentary was touched.
