the demo is a fine job by ea - I wonder if they actually keep on working on it during the next 3 weeks? this game is fun and for the most part smooth...the atmosphere is greatly enhanced -so is the flow of the game-- except that during every pass all the rest of the players get slightly blurred

I am surprised that no one has noticed this - I've seen some posts about people wanting to make sure that graphics are rendered but I don't know if this what they were talking about? - anyone notice this...

a similar problem occured in mvp 2004 during throws in the infield - for the pc only - after a while a bunch of us complained and they fixed it in a patch.

by the way my specs
p4 2.53
gforce ti 4600
1 gig ram -
I tried different drivers, different resoulutions, speeds, and my
buddies system - still the same problem- I think it was the way the game was made- perhaps they will fix it-

hakeem - sorry I didn't put this in the demo sticky - i felt like if this were a problem- I wanted feedback quicker - so I can email ea sports and maybe bring it to their attention...

I have not noticed that, and I will check it out when I get home. It could be that just certain graphics cards have issues with it, but that may or may not be true. I have one computer that has an ATi Radeon 9700 Pro, and my other one that I don't have the game on has an nVidia FX 5200. I'll check it out on the ATi 9700.

Highly unlikely, since it takes time to actually ship out the games to different parts of the world.

A patch for the PC is not out of the question tho, since they made one last year.

Took a few days after the release date for them to have a patch ready if i recall :D

yes umosay - its probably the game and how sensitive your eyes are- the consoles will probably be fine - but lately ea hasn'y been putting much time into the pc ports - I also notice as I age (30 yrs old) that my eyes don't enjoy such stuttering - it seems not to bother younger gamers as much....

bad job ea - such a simple thing to do...

stuntman/umosay or anyone that sees this stutter in the demo - if you buy the original game please post if there is an improvement - there wasn't an improve ment in mvp 2004 between the demo stutter and the game stutter but ya never know - if they fix it I will buy it...
