Did you capture a video of it? Just curious.

The biggest question for all us slider makers: did this patch change hitting again? A friend of mine played 2 innings post patch 1.11 and hit 2 Homer's in one inning. My sliders were tuned for the dead ball Era from patch 1.10 so if they made hitting easier again, slider makers are once again going to have to adjust.

Hitting feels great and I saw no changes.

I noticed right away on several intentional dirt balls the catcher reaction was better.

For me the game has been great offline since release and through every single patch.

Rocking several franchises and classic roster seasons and having a total blast offline.

Online? Don't even get me started.....huge let down. The game has never seemed right online for me anyway.

I play offline Diamond Dynasty. Missions and conquest etc. It's fun. Too bad online is glitchy and has never felt right for me.

I switched to manual because the auto stealing kept losing me games.

No offense Armor, but the last few patches haven't been close to great offline in my (and many others) opinion. It should be noted I play on Legend so that may skew things, but when one patch has us in the dead ball era and the very next patch has us in the steroid era, that is not what I consider to be a good patch. There are COUNTLESS other issues, but I just don't have the time to go over them all for the umpteenth time.

With that said, has anyone else tried hitting with this latest patch yet?

If they fix that bunts are harder than base hits, the game is perfect for me.

Just finished my first game post-patch, and a couple of observations. First of all, I didn't see any changes to hitting in the patch notes, but it seemed like good timing was being rewarded with more solid contact, but that may just be an illusion. I did notice a difference in the catcher animations on the pitches in the dirt, they did a better job of blocking them, though I did still have a wild pitch on one. Had a weak nubber to the third base side which Catfish grabbed and whirled and threw sidearm, getting the out by a half step, instead of the normal pick up, set, throw, and miss by 4 steps I've gotten used to, so great fix there.

The catchers and pitchers are definitely just a terrible as before online, no idea why they'd fix it for offline but leave it as trash online? Must have been 10 hits or passed balls that should never have happened to me and my opponents in my last 5 games

This sort of nonsense
