Thread: Interactive Crowd Excitement...

    Interactive Crowd Excitement...

    The game features lively crowd logic featuring the Interactive Crowd Excitement System. This creates a more realistic crowd than previously seen in a PS2 baseball game! The crowd ebbs and flows over the course of a game. For example, in a key situation late in a close game the crowd roars on every pitch, but during a blowout the crowd calms down considerably. This system also takes into effect rivalries, team followings, team placement in the standings, and time in the season. For example, the crowd is totally pumped from the get-go for a playoff game or a Red Sox-Yankees clash, but for a mid-season Expos-Brewers battle-for-the-cellar it sounds as if there are only a few fans in attendance -- just like real life!

    Now, assuming there talking about the PC version as well, that sounds awesome. I wonder if it's really going to be as good as it sounds, or if it's just hype.

    Agreed. If this is truly what the ICE feature accomplishes, that would be a very welcome addition.

    Looks like 3DO realized that they really screwed up on 2K2 and are trying to make up for it.

    Hopefully this isn't just another "not-quite" done feature though. IMHO, there's nothing worse than having a feature that isn't quite 100% (ala the rain feature).

    I remember PapiChullo saying that he read the back of the 2K2 box and saw the rain feature and said "I've got to have this game".

    I hope this isn't the same thing as that. (same exact crowd wav's used, just playing in a slightly different order)

    Exactly what I'm worried about...
