On my laptop, where I play the PC version of the game, it really isn’t worth it, because the screen is smaller and everything is crowded and quite small. That said, when I tried 3D after the latest hot patch, the ball was still floating at the pitcher’s or fielder’s belt line, instead of in the hand or glove. And batters were swinging a foot above the ball and hitting big flies. So I guess it’s a work in progress.
On my Mac, playing the Apple version of the game, the graphics in 3D look much better; although the stadiums are not correct. I seem to be getting a default stadium, even though the menu says the correct venue. Perhaps this was user error once again, as the default stadium is CBP, and I am an incurable Phillies fan. I have the appropriate stadiums loaded and chosen for each MLB team in my sims. I don’t think a user should be required to do more than that in order to play in the proper stadium.
But the 90% of the game that I enjoy is improved and challenging and continues to impress. I will probably go back to 2D until/unless I can see all the lovely stadiums I have chosen in 3D. I would put in a trouble ticket; but I am too busy playing and having a good time.

I am absolutely pleased that you responded. You saved this girl from buying the game this year. I'm not buying it until an honest effort has been made to improve the 3D aspects. The simulation aspect of the game is perfectly fine for most any fan, save the hardcore stats nuts who can pick a .000001 out of a haystack. In MY eyes, the game is going to improve any until the 3D is looking good. Sorry if that offends anyone.
