    CPU and divng catches?

    CPU and diving catches does any one else fell like the computer makes to many catches in the game when they dive? In think mlb 08-10 the computer would make to many catches like this and it semed like to many guys filded like they where all star. In 11-13 I felt like it got way better and the differences between filders was better. So far on this game I fell like it is going back to how it used to be. I have played 11 games and I think the CPU has already made like 9 diving catches dissapoted that this semeds to be a issue again that all filders are all stars again. On the positive while I am still seeing pitches get hit by balls up the middle to much I am see a lot less then years past. In the past I was seeing like a few a game and probly couldn't go a game with out seeing on. This year in 11 games I think I have had 4 told balls hitting pitchers and probly around 4 that came close but I would say I am seeing like 400% less then in years past.

    I have the same problem but it is not that they are too good at making diving catches, but rather for whatever reason they are given too many opportunities.

    A high number of my hits lead to potential highlight plays.

      I just played a game against the wsox and twice they went for the dive catch and missed one was a triple to rf and the other was my 1st in park home run in the show with a drive straight down the middle by elvis andrus. i have seen as many dropped/missed as i have seen made.

        I was going to mention something like this as well. While the CPU does make some web gems, they miss quite a few because of the aggressive play. I am actually fine with the frequency, wish I was able to pull some of those plays off. I tend to play a very safe outfield defense.

          Since I went back to allstar default sliders I now seen many opportunities to attempt them by me and the cpu so I think by tweaking sliders it changes alot of the games dynamics and animations .

          They almost unfold like the AI is setting you up to do it as it basically your only option .

            I'm in the boat that they make way too many of these. I literally can't remember the last time I saw them miss and it's getting to the point that I just assume they'll make the catch whenever they try. It doesn't appear to matter the fielders rating either, garbage fielders are diving around making these catches with ease.

              Yeah it needs to be patched it is my biggest complaint in this great game. In 14 games I think the CPU has made like 12 diving catches in the outfield and I think has only missed 2 or 3 times its back to how it was like 4 years ago when ever one was a allstar fielder. What is everone using for outfielder speed by the way? I have it at 3 and may try 2 has I am not really seeing balls going over players heads and seeing a lot of deep balls get cought.

                A bit too many IMO.

                Misses especially.

                  They could probably play smarter..diving for a ball, especially one they miss, when their team is up 9-1 late doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

                    I just wish the CPU actually missed them in my games. It's gotten to the point that when I see a hit in the gaps but the fielder closing on it I can tell he's gonna dive and guarantee he's also gonna catch it. I don't know if there is a slider that effects this as most mine are at default but it's highly irritating to watch a guy dive and constantly make the catch then, using auto fielding, watch my OF stumble as hes trying to cut off a shot down the line turning a single or double into a guaranteed triple.

                      I was going to mention something like this. For me, its not that they are making too many web gems or missing too many, as I think its fairly balanced.

                      My concern is the situations in which they attempt them. Sometimes, you'll know they cannot get to the ball even by diving but yet the cpu will make the attempt and the ball rolls forever.

                      Having said that, the new fielding animations allow for some beautiful plays to be made.

                        Played a DD game where I got robbed of 6 hits by diving plays by infielders and outfielders. I almost raged b/c it is so unrealistic to have that many web gems in one game.

                          I agree it happens a little too much. I also want to add this to the mix. Im not a big fan of how the cpu plays bounces off the walls perfectly every time. Right off the bat they somehow know exactly where the ball is gonna end up off the wall.

                            It does happen a little too much for my liking as well. As far as the above post, I feel like they don't play the bounces off the wall as good as they have in previous versions, which is quite refreshing. The ball takes a lot of cool bounces off the walls this year in my experience, and I have benefited with quite a few triples with fast players.

                              Maybe its the level , the player or the situation but on default I see the cpu miss many balls ? remember alot of it is programming as I just dropped a easy foul ball fly in the 5th and lost my no hitter next pitch .
