    I got the game last night after a 14 hour workday and just fiddled around with it for a little while but didn't notice if it was going on then.

    But today, I have played 3 games and every Grienke threw nothing but his X button 4seam-fastball, Lohse his X button sinker, and all relievers the same.

    In additon, my catcher is only calling my dominant pitch as well. It is taking away from the fun of the game because even though the locations slightly vary, it's still the same pitch every time.
    The only thing I can think of is youre using the Beginner profile or whatever that's called and they have you on Rookie Difficulty. I believe that's a gradual increase in difficulty where they pitch their best pitch exclusively down the middle until you hit those well, then they introduce secondary pitches down the middle, then balls as well as strikes etc.

    That's my only guess.

        Question folks.

        I made a SS in RTTS, but I'm only getting 2-3 chances a game to play defense. Is this normal? Would playing a 3B or 2B get me more chances?

          is there anyone else hitting a lot of homeruns? I playing on veteran setting and so far out of six games into my franchise 11 out my 13 fielders all have hit homeruns some have multiple homers. I believe my team totally so far is 16 homeruns, seems like a lot, and kind of stupid to question, I mean who wouldn't want to hit homeruns, right? Perhaps I need to bump up to all-star setting. However, was just curious if anyone else have been hitting dingers on the regular like myself?

            I kinda agree with you. I am playing with the Braves at Turner Field their home stadium. There's no "chop", no chant. Maybe because I'm playing in exhibition mode. Hopefully that has something to do with it..

              Any info on a patch or update addressing these HORRIBLE load times!?!?!?! Also, why are there no hands on the clock at the S.F. Giants stadium?? The could have made that stadium a lot better by giving the viewer shots of the ball going into the bay.....wouldn't have been hard. Looks terrible over the wall IMO.

                Hey.. first of all, why i can't create a new topic? i just registered my account.

                Second, how do i set up fielding to manual? cause i hate it to get near the ball coming down, and it is just so automatic, i move my player towards the ball coming down and then the cpu adjusts him so he can get the ball with no problems..

                The only thing i found refering to Fielding, is the throwing difficulty.
                Thanks

                  Re: MLB 14 The Show Q & A (PS4)

                  I did an online fantasy draft last night with some of my friends but for 12 hours now our franchise has been stuck on the "cleaning up draft" stage and will not move to the "draft finalized" stage so we can play. We don't have the players we drafted and the whole process took too long not to work. What can I do I do not want to redraft and do a whole different franchise???

                      Re: MLB 14 The Show Q & A (PS4)

                      Guys I have a couple questions as I'm a beginner going through a bad losing streak in my season.


                      I am using zone hitting (with the PCI) and I can't figure out how to aim where I hit. It says I can use the left stick to aim, but when I do that, my PTI just ends up losing its spot and I whiff on the ball.

                      How do you aim where to hit WHILE keeping the PCI where you want it? When I do make contact it seems to go straight towards second base unless I'm early/late.

                      Also when I make contact should I be holding down the hit button for better impact?

                      Finally, when picking off how do I throw to the base faster? I simply double tap the base I want to throw to?

                      Thanks a lot, any advice is appreciated.

                        Your posts were 3 minutes apart... Give us a chance to answer.

                        The Show is animation-driven, so when you get in the vicinity of the catch region area an animation will take over. This year it's not so pronounced, but it's there nonetheless.

                          I've had situations like these occur 3 times now between PS3 and PS4, and they are all able to be re-created in the community challenges mode (basically, you can create your own scenario). That makes them very serious, but also very patchable IF SCEA is made aware of them.

                          Please read and upvote, I was very clear about the details of both bugs and even provided video links to examples of each.
                          Updating this:

                          Thanks to everyone who upvoted, we got a dev comment on both of them:

                          Comment posted May 09, 2014 10:40 am PDT by Developer
                          This is something I will try and reproduce internally. Once I can figure out what the issue maybe. I will pass it along to our AI programmers. I will keep you posted when there is news to report. Thanks for the report.
                          If I was able to make both of these happen repeatedly in the challenges mode, I know they'll be able to find them with their dev tools. Only question in my mind is whether or not they'll be able to patch for this year.

                            How do you ask the devs about potential move support for the PS4 of MLB?

                              Not happening this year, maybe next year if there is time.

                                Can you choose a minor league player (not sure if they are in the game or you have to use one of the add-on rosters) for Road To The Show? I know you can create and model after a major league player, but didn't know if you can do the other.

                                thanks
