It is defensively once you are in the field. Don't you experience pre-pitch the camera panning around the entire ballpark, all the way from your position, to the catcher and mound, then all the way back around to your position? After that the pitch is thrown, you hardly even have time to align yourself to a desired position pre-pitch.

It does this after every pitch, and this couldn't be intentionally made by design, because it's absolute nonsense. If I'm in the outfield I'm not going to do that for a 162 game season, that is a tortuous idea. This to me appeared to be a bug, I posted a report on tsn, but it's now nonexistant and didn't get an official response from anyone. I have confirmed with other players that this is an issue.

Wha? I only play All Pitches when the team I'm on is about to win something significant (division, pennant, world series) and my RttS saw every pitch and I wasn't necessarily in the play...like in real life.
The camera never panned around to anything other than for strikeouts and such. I'm not really sure what your "issue" is.

I thought that the camera panning had to do with all the outfield positions...?
BTW first game after the patch.... No organ music... Smh... Really a baseball game with little to no organ music... Not trying to be a wise *** but how the heck does that happen? Am I doing something wrong or what....?


Oh and I still apparently play against all star fielding pitchers, but yet my pitcher can't get to the same balls hit at half the speed... Whatever

Ok, well I just played and this issue is the same. It's a legitimate issue, I wouldn't bring up otherwise, thoroughly it's an issue. Most players that encountered it would consider this a bug or something unintentional. It's after every pitch thrown, the camera circles the ballpark all as I described. The are multiple setbacks in the game that this causes, I guess most obvious could be the simple fact that you cannot even pause your game for any reason while on defense because the cameras movement is un-stoppable and as soon as it returns you to your position the ball is being thrown, which of course means you cannot pause the game there either. Then the cycle continues as you're panned around the ballpark as soon as the pitch is over.

But most bothersome to me is the fact that this takes you completely out of everything the mode is intended to be designed for. You're supposed to be a LF RF, SS or whatever position player you chose, IE Derek Jeter, Jean Segura, and you're not allowed to be them. You're just in the mix of a broken gameplay mode and that's really it.

But even more substantial of an issue is the fact that as I mentioned before, you as a position are not allowed to do anything in your position pre-pitch. Such as "positioning" yourself, you know, shallow deep etc, 2 steps to the left/right etc. The mode being broken as it is for me and presumably most "All Pitches" players make it completely useless. My intention was to play the game daily in this mode and play my one game a day in franchise mode or perhaps start a player locked season perhaps with Derek Jeter since this is his final year in baseball.

There are some of us that exist that look for the game to play it through it's entirety, unless they are planning to scrap the mode altogether next year then we won't exist at all because there is no option kind of like there is no option now.

I really don't understand why that is so restrictive like you say, as far as moving your player around. I just don't get it.
It seems more and more these days there's less player input, Imo it's ridiculous... I must be in the minority I guess.

The ball is definitely coming out of the pitcher's hand better now on the PS4

Nope...in the field...the camera comes up as behind my player and stays there.
I have a few seconds to move and the pitch-tip box comes up.
No panning.

That's incredible, after every pitch the panning is done. I could simply upload the last 2 innings worth of defensive gameplay to prove it. The only possible reason you have a difference is you have your presentations set on fast play. Fast Play, and Broadcast are the only two options, and I have not resorted to playing the Fast Play version in this mode yet. Once I resume playing I'll switch over to fast play and see whether I experience the same thing you are.

Which I have just done and yes predictably resorting to fast play option will eliminate the ridiculousness of panning the camera around the entire ballpark as I've described. The only drawback is I also despise Fast Play. So to say this is the only possible way to make PlayerLock/RTTS playable when you want to play All Pitches is like an oxymoron. Call me a I still consider this mode broken as it gets.

It shouldn't be difficult to understand that if I want to play out a full game witnessing "All Pitches" I obviously would not enable fast play under reasonable circumstances.

So the only difference we have remaining is my game is a digital copy and yours is a hand picked physical copy . Seriously though, this has become a strange issue now. I will certainly upload what I'm dealing with so it can be shown and maybe there's a chance I can be helped

Re: MLB 14 The Show 1.12 (PS4) and patch 1.17 (PS3) Available Now - Details Included

Does anyone think hitting has been reduced by the patch?

Maybe it's just a strange couple games that I have played but it seems like the CPU especially is making less HARD CONTACT and htting more choppers and soft bloops.

Maybe I'm just imagining it, but it seems like there is way less pop all of a sudden.......I know I can tweak the sliders but just want some other opinions on what you guys are seeing

The strike zone it's still awful, everything a strike. This has to be fix.

We are clearly playing two very different games. Im pretty sure there is a way to pay off the refs that i dont know of.

I remember having this problem, and I also remember there being an option that fixes it. Let me check my settings and get back to you in this.

In short - I've seen what both of you are seeing, and neither side is wrong. This ALMOST ruined all pitch rtts for me too until I fixed it.

Side by side, a view of offensive and the problematic defensive sides of player lock / rtts gameplay with the mode of all pitches selected.

These are my RTTS settings which you can see in pt1. We differ most significantly in the "RTTS Presentation Style" which you have in broadcast while I have it in 1st person. Supposedly this only affects the type of commentary that's given on the game, but it's unknown whether this is the key difference. If it is, I'll update the post.
