Possible Wrigley Bug on Foul Ball Outs

[bfindeisen]

This may or may not be a bug, but has anyone else noticed while playing at Wrigley that some foul pop-ups seem to ricochet off an invisible wall dividing the stands from the field and then land in the nearest fielders glove for an out? I played 2 games at Wrigley yesterday and noticed on at least 4 occasions a foul pop-up would 'bounce' off an invisible wall about 10-20 feet above the field/stands and ricochet to the fielder running to try and catch it for an out.

Several reports of this on the bug tracker now, and I believe mine is the highest voted right now.

It's since happened to me several more times - to the point where I can guess when it's going to happen before it actually does.

Even the virtual Wrigley is cursed.

Yeah, I actually just noticed that after I posted this. Voted on it. No Dev comments, yet, though. Definitely a bug with Wrigley.

Pretty much. Seems to be some boundary issues with the park itself.

This seems to only work in the CPU (or auto-fielder's) favor, because the user does of course run into the wall and can't make the catch.

Yea happened to me too...not the worst bug that has happened to me at Wrigley in MLB 15 either..

Re: Possible Wrigley Bug on Foul Ball Outs

Even worse, a deep foul ball along the right field line can result in a home run call.

Re: Possible Wrigley Bug on Foul Ball Outs

This may help explain why CPU fielders at Wrigley hit the wall and just keep running in place. they actually are trying to catch up to the ball because the out of play boundaries are messed up.

UGH, I was hoping to use the Cubs this year...

From what I'm reading it only happens in Wrigley, correct?

Might have to try another team while we hope for a patch...

Had a foul ball hit off top of the wall and bounce into the right field bleachers and it was called a home run. Cost me the game. Damn Harry Carey curse. Damn starlin Castro.

Different stadium will work, too - Wrigley's the only park I've seen the warping foul balls in. Aside from RTTS you can choose the stadium to play in before every game.

Re: Possible Wrigley Bug on Foul Ball Outs

Same problem on a wild pickoff throw to first base:

the ball went into the stands, and stayed there.
My runner had the time to reach third base before any player reached the ball.

Thanks for the reminder, but playing home games at Wrigley was a big part of the decision...

Oh well!
