“Tonight’s game is delayed due to technical difficulties. The render farm is down.”

Stay tuned! Tomorrow: War and Peace is credited in its entirety for a screenshot of a Lada.

No t just the Bee Movie but the script for a random Celebrities in Cars Getting Coffee spliced in every time the word "bee" is used. You could be a living meme!

Get rid of the athletes and just ai the whole shebang. They're not worth the money anyway.

Think of the advertising possibilities! Now everyone in the crowd c an be wearing a Scott’s Turfgaurd shirt in the first inning, but a Taco Bell Crunchwrap Supreme shirt during the 7th inning stretch!

Will there be jerks that take a baseball from a CGI child? :P

Ain’t gonna lie, got my rec for the Edmund Fitzgerald schtick.

I’m excited to see some baseball, but virtual fans seem kind of lame and pointless.

Except now the child can call in a drone strike because TONIGHTS GAME IS SPONSORED BY CALL OF DUTY: BLACK OPS 8!

I’ve actually never read it, which is surprising given how many other very long classics I’ve read. I wonder when Kinja finally puts a letter cap if it will delete image credits that exceed it?
Thank you. What started out as a snarky comment might just materialize into a great feat.

“Render Farm” sounds like something from Fight Club.

6 months from now: Atlanta Braves’ virtual fans hacked, do racist tomahawk chop throughout entire game.

I’m intrigued solely out of curiosity to see how they pull it off from a technical standpoint.
The F1 races I’ve watched honestly do n’t feel much, if any different than from years past, but baseball (and basketball, football, etc.) rely so heavily on crowd energy, I’m scared the action itself will be terrible.

Shhhh, don’t say things like that or the public might catch on.

Guessing the virtual fox fans will all be carrying confederate flags too....

My son is a big soccer fan, and we’ve been watching the Bundesliga with canned crowd noise. It’s really not bad at all. I mean, you barely pay attention to the crowd as it is, and the noise adds so much to the game. I watched the end of Twins/Cubs last night in an empty Wrigley Field and the silence was deafening.
That said, putting computerize people in the stands is just stupid.

I’d rather pay an athlete than a video game programer.

I'd rather pay neither, but that's just me.

I believe you’re free to do that.

And do that I do.

Finally, some new DLC for the Sims. Lets just hope these digital fans don’t get a virus (yak yak yak yak).

Luckily video game programmers are poorly paid and overworked, since the industry knows they can just burn through them and there will always be a fresh and eager pool of talent to pull from.
