MLB 17: Little Things Thread

Re: MLB 17: Little Things Thread

Not sure if this is exactly a little thing but remember when pitchers used to get drilled with linedrives every game 2-3 years ago? Me neither. Haven't seen it once this year, not even close

I have seen it twice so far, once in the arm and once in the shin. Neither caused any inspections for injury.

However, when I was doing wind testing I was playing on Beginner with violent winds, maxed sliders and a maxed out player, and I hit a shot to LF where Jarrett Parker got beaned in the head, but finished off the play. Afterward it said he had a broken nose.

Many less balls hit off the pitcher though, as you said.

Just found out how they reworked some Minor Leagues stadiums. At Green Valley stadium they enhanced the background and the grass. Curious what other stadiums received upgrades

I think they added a concert stage to one of the minor league stadiums in right field. Not sure which one tho

Re: MLB 17: Little Things Thread

Something I have noticed quite a bit now, the crowd seems to cheer hits by the road team if there's a diving effort on the play. Vice versa at times at well - I just made a sort of nifty play with my SS (on the road) and the crowd cheered it like it was a hit. It's like that part of the crowd-reactions code is reversed.

I always chalk that up to, you do have the away team fans in the crowd as well.

I considered that (and would be a cute touch if done well) but this is clearly where the crowd is coded to cheer the dive irrespective of outcome, leading to some awkward moments where they're cheering their heads off despite a hit.

In RTTS I have beaned two pitchers so far. Neither got pulled from the game and both threw me out at 1st. Nearly hit a few more with line drives right back up the middle but they either ducked them or dodged out of the way.

This is because now instead of line drive beaners, now you get way too many wild pitches/passed balls/dropped third strikes. The problems keep on coming

They need to have way less fans at Marlins Park, and not enough of them are wearing Mets gear.

Not sure what happened to the Bug/Glitch Thread but it shows to be closed. I will post here. It is a little thing. Playing w/ 87' Roster Set in Season Mode, Mets vs Braves.

Cut scene to Ariel view of Shea Stadium and it displays 'NL EAST' standings but with AL Teams...

The thread is gone because you are supposed to send all glitches directly to the development team. Sometimes they don't look here.

James Paxton just cap tipped the cheering home crowd after being pulled while failing to get the complete game shutout but making it into the 9th

I haven't experienced this and I think that the good out-weighs the bad in this game by an immeasurable amount

Okay so I had to post this right away. Dan Plesac just called Bartolo Colon a young starter! LOL Okay, back to my game now.

Glad you're not seeing it. I see it quote often still, maybe slightly less than before but I would say still every other game.

Though I guess a little thing is that the pitchers do make more of an effort to get out of the way, which is new, and how most people would react.

I've actually seen it probably 10 times so far, just happened yesterday. So, it's still there.
