MLB License and what changes within the game

SlyBelle · 01-25-2015, 09:11 AM

I apologize if this has been posted somewhere else, but I tried looking through all the previous threads and couldn't find it, so if it does exist, feel free to point me that way.

I understand in general what having a MLB license does, being able to market the game as such. But has there been a specific list posted where it identifies exactly what will be different in the game because of having the license?

- Logos (I am assuming they will be included, but will just one logo be provided for the current year or will historical logos also be included?)

- Hats/Uniforms (will these be included and will they also have historical versions as well)

- I am assuming the team nicknames will now be the official team names

- Will the various playoff/championship games now be named the official names?

- Will all the award names default to the official names?

- I saw some news stories would be removed that involve illegal activities, so I understand that

Do I have the above correct or will there be other changes within the game because of the licensing...just trying to understand it all.

Thanks!

I wonder if BNN would be replaced with MLB.com

And will there be a world series trophy logo instead of a default generic trophy?

I doubt these changes as they wouldn't make sense for fictional unless they are exclusive for MLB games.

1. Historical logos are also included.
2. No historical versions for jerseys yet. Will come in a future version or via free update.
3. Nicknames / awards / playoff round names etc. will all be real of course.

Thank you and sounds good.

We still have the option of adding in all the mods ourselves. But it would definitely be cool one day to have them all in by default. Would be so much easier.

Logo's are in for MLB, and all minor affiliates as well as historical, I have not heard yet if that means if you play in an old time league if you get old style logos for teams still around or if they just add logos to the old teams.

And all MLB teams and MiLB should have proper nicknames and afflictions.

I also remember reading something about them including all Ball Park photos as well for the MLB teams

Will historical logos automatically update?
