Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread

Hanley Ramirez tried to bunt with 2 outs and the winning run (the blazing speed of David Ortiz) on 3rd in the 9th, after Papi had just tied the game.



This AI is so broken.

Exact same thing happened to me (crazy right?!), and Papi got on third with a TRIPLE WITH 1 SPEED!! Then he comes up later and hits a walk off double. Dang come back code.

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread

I'm beating the Angels the whole game and then all of a sudden they take the lead with a 5 run 7th inning. Suddenly my pitchers can't get anyone out or hit the strikezone.

In the bottom of the 8th I finally had the come back code work in my favor with my own 5 run inning to take the lead going into the 9th. Starting to think all this scripted stuff is crap.

.....Pujols 3 run shot in the top of the 9th to give them the lead back. I bet that in the bottom of the 9th I won't be able to hit anything as their reliever will be lights out.....this game is horrible!!!

Mariners / Angels.....just ended

I was at the game last night. Was thinking of this thread the whole 9th inning.

I did get Kyle Seager bobblehead as my after game reward.

Monday I had King Felix on the hill, in first place in the AL West, when I look in the stands and only 15,000 in attendance.
If SDS could incorporate relocation, I'd be so out of Seattle, maybe give Brooklyn back a team.
Brooklyn Bums, rolls off the tongue don't it? Make it so Sony!

Saw some new animations during Texas-Toronto game today, actual fist-to-face knock off your glasses brawl.
If there's going to be more added in 2017, put me down for two copies next year please.

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread

CPU pitchers aren't throwing strikes at all. I mean I don't usually walk that much, but the Reds bullpen just walked me four consecutive times with the bases loaded...essentially handing me a grand slam with out me taking the bat off my shoulder.

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread

Sorry for the double post...but Holy Cow. Athletics-Rangers....

It's like the CPU admitted there was a comeback code by letting me hit a walkoff 9th inning 2 out 2 strike grand slam with Khris Davis (who already had 2 HR in the game) after my lights out closer gave up a 2 run homer to Ian Desmond to give up the lead. Tired of all this late inning madness. With the shift to emphasis of the bullpens, games might as well only be 6 innings. Get with the program SCEA!!!

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread

I'm in a pitcher's duel, a 1-0 game late against the Cubs, who have the best record in baseball. They end up tying it up late, which is fine, but the game gets crazy in extra innings.

First, I get the bases loaded with 0 outs and CAN'T SCORE. I hit a weak fly ball then 2 infield pop ups. It was stupid.

I end up losing the game in the 13th when I walk a PITCHER with the bases loaded. I tried to just throw it right down the middle on a 3-1 pitch and the game wouldn't let me throw a strike.

This stupid comeback AI is ridiculous..

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread

not gonna do the whole gimmick but last night the Astros hit into a triple play with Tony Kemp (rookie, hint: he's fast) and Altuve on base with Springer running.

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread

Im at home against my division rival Nationals in a big series. Weve got (one of) our ace(s) going, whos been a little shaky to start the season. He's pitching pretty well, hes in a little bit of a jam, but then a sharp grounder into the 5-6 hole and freaking Asdrubal Cabrera bobbles the darn thing and I can't turn a double play that could have gotten me out of the inning. I admit it would have been a pretty tough turn, so i kinda shake that one off. Later in the inning someone hits a liner toward left center and i put Conforto right on the ball marker, but I SWEAR it moved RIGHT BEFORE I CAUGHT THE BALL!!! It activates that stupid animation where its like he's trying to not get hit by the ball and it drops right out of his glove. I just about broke my controller over my head like Bo Jackson. Then, because of course when it rains it pours in this game, a nationals batter hits a sinking liner to center and i decide to play it safe and not dive, i figure i might even get lucky and Cespedes will make one of those tumbling catches. But no. I was wrong. Very, very wrong. The computer just decided to screw me over today. Cespedes doesn't tumble. He basically runs right past the ball almost as if he did not even know it was there. And the ball goes all the way to the wall for an easy triple. My starter gave up 9 runs in just 2.2 innings. Its like if a guy comes in with a cold streak it becomes impossible to play with them. One cool thing is that as my starter exited the crowd actually booed him. So apparently they have enough time to added useless crowd animations, but not enough time to make a realistic baseball game.

Also in that same franchise, Chris Sale is 9-0 through 9 starts with 3 CG. This has been a problem for years. How has it not been fixed. Nobody throws more than like 5 complete games in a season. There are way too many.

But wait theres more!!! Lineup logic is TERRIBLE!! Jose Bautista in the leadoff spot??!!??!! C'mon now. Im just gonna sell this game back and buy Madden. There's nothing wrong with that game...

Sorry for so much in one post!! I felt like the no split paragraphs in the first one made it feel much more "rant-like".

Ive been watching too much MLB Tonight

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread

So I'm playing my RTTS 3rd baseman for the Mariners. In Cincinnati, leading off the top of the second inning. Four pitch walk. Off to good start. Adam Lind comes up and hits a single to right field allowing me to get to 3rd. Cool, I'm on 3rd with no outs. Should be no problem. Chris Ianetta up. Strikes out. Leonys Martin up. Walks. Here we go! Bases loaded one out. We got this! Pitcher Hisashi Iwakuma up. Just get it out of the infield, I can get in.Strikeout. Alright, last chance. Ketel Marte up. He can do this. Grounder to third. What kind of game logic is this?!? On 3rd base and no outs and I'm stranded. Too many teammate strikeouts when I'm on base in RTTS!!

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread

Just had the WEIRDEST glitch happen to me. Clinging to a 3-2 lead in the top of the fourth (which I entered up 3-0), having just given up an RBI Double, I've got runner on second and no one out. I select my pitch, start to come set and... the freaking ball just drops out of my hand for no reason!!! Balk sends the runner to third and he eventually scores as part of a five-run inning. Seriously, SCEA... FIX THIS ASAP. I'm having enough trouble winning games without this garbage!

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread

This game needs to fix it's sliding mechanics. I have Napoli and he finally smokes one into the gap. I'm controlling him well and he has a chance for three!!

So I then see the assisted sliding kick in (not sure why, there wasn't even a throw), but not only that, it was an UGLY slide. No one slides like that. SDS pls.

THEN on top of all that nonsense, I get an injury! WHAT?! This game's poor sliding gets my player hurt on a slide he had no business taking anyway...

FIX IT or my money back. Your choice.

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread

I guess a 6 run lead with 1 out in the 9th with my closer pitching isn't enough to stop this comeback BS.

I wish Vasgersian could adopt the contemptuous, sad tone Farmer and Jackson had at the end of that game.

I'm a Jays/Braves fan but I love Farmer.
