MLB 14 The Show Q & A (PS4)

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

Did they remove setting ticket prices, being able to upgrade the stadium, marketing, etc. in Franchise Mode? I skipped The Show last year so maybe this isn't news, but I'm not able to find it anywhere. Thanks in advance.

yes they did remove it

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

Two questions;

1. where do i find Team Budgets within franchise mode?

2. why when i try to trade player A with a 2 year contract worth 15mil with player B with EXACTLY the same $$$ and contract length do i get a message saying something along the lines of "one or both teams can not complete due to budget". Doesnt make sense if theyre both on same money over the course of two years. This happens with rich teams (Yanks) and not so rich teams (Marlins)

Thanks

Question

When pitching a ball that is suppose to break is it the ball icon that shows where the ball is suppose to go or is it the arrows?

Ball = Start
Arrows = Direction it breaks/moves

In Franchise, where do I go to adjust the stamina of players? I see how to raise pitchers in game stamina, but where do I adjust position players stamina? Thanks.

Quick question, I'm new to the show and I'm loving it, but I do notice that when playing a game you can only choose between night and day? Is there no option to choose a time of day? Bc anytime it's a day game it's like they default the time to like a 3pm game so by the time it's a the 8th inning the sun setting ready to go down... I don't like that.. Dodgers playing today and the games like a noon game, the sun isn't even close to going down by the end of the game. Any way to actually do this is game? Different times?

You can't select a specific time to play during the day. Something we will hopefully see in the future.

What is the proper way to scout? Is it better for scouts to scout regions or individual players? When you draft rookies are they automatically sent to the minors?

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

i also noticed in franchise mode you can control the weather and which stadium you play in. Has anyone else had a problem with dynamic difficulty? You will have one great game and the difficulty will go up and then the next you completly struggle. In one game i jumped from Veteran to All star and the next game i struggled. I had my Ace on the mound thats why i did well. i have Chris Sale, Wacha and Bundy. with the OS FM rosters bundy isn't that bad. When you first start off his pitching is all over the place, but by like the 3rd its on point. Some of my relief pitchers a SP's that i stuck in the bullpen. some are better than my rotation, its just when i have the lead i want a shut down pitcher coming out of the bullpen.

http://theshownation.com/bug_reports/11958

Just wanted to bring attention to a bug I noticed. Using Quick Counts, starters are being credited with BB issued by a releiver when the releiver comes in and walks a guy immediately after being pulled.

Meaning, say you have one out top seven and you decide to pull your starter. Using QC's, if you walk the very next batter, the starter is being credited with the BB.

The bug report is linked above.

You know what, I was thinking about it and realized this is happening under these two pretenses:

1. Reliever is subbed in MID-INNING

And in my case...

2. The immediate NEXT PITCH (3-2 count) results in a BB.

By all means, everybody. Test this. But I'm positive it exists. If we are unable to recreate it I'll post more specifics (teams, stadiums, hitters, etc). But for now, how do I edit my report to be clear on those two caveats?

Alright. Just happened again.

See the attached photo. Robertson comes in to a generated 3-1 count. His first pitch is a ball - therefore a walk - and notice how Claiborn is credited with the BB.

Sorry for the crappy quality pic and enormous size! (How do you edit attachments?)

Please upvote this bug!

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

Is there any tips for reducing pitcher fatigue on quick counts? It seems like my pitcher is completely out after 6-7 innings while on normal, they can last 8+ innings before I have to take them out based on fatigue.

Does anyone know if the player ratings has been removed during game play. You could access through the d-pad in 13'. You could view the CPU defensive player attributes during the human control team at bat..

Yes its been removed, i think i saw Ramone Russell respond to someone else's post about it being removed . Again not 100% certain it was about this menu option. might go digging to see if i can find the post.

edit:found it. This was what Ramone said in regards to the option being removed in another thread.

"With the entire FE and pause menu being redone some screen's where lost in translation. Submit a bug ticket for it please and I'll make sure it returns for 15 if we can't get in the next patch. (Not saying we will do another patch though)"

Thanks Dazzelle. I will do a bug report for both this and panning the camera back while on the pitcher mound.
