I had 1.04 download and I also had 1.07 download. Whats in 1.07?

Disregard and remove please. There is no 1.07. I wasnt paying attention and it is a different game. My bad.

All this talk of HR's being an issue for people...you do realize that homeruns are up across the league, this year and last. The trend is shifting, so I have no problem with them at all. Honestly, I'm thankful considering my offense has been abysmal the last few years in my franchise.

The question is: are the devs intentionally trying to replicate increased home run numbers, or are they intentionally trying to replicate typical numbers over the last 5-10 years?

You can't have it both ways, and there's no point in asking people if they realize what you're saying until we confirm what the devs are actually trying to accomplish.

YES! YES! YES!

They finally addressed the issue with starting pitchers getting pulled too early! I can finally start my franchise! Super pumped. Thanks for listening guys!

Offline, well they need to fix it and I got no idea why they wouldn't have fixed it for offline if they did for online. It's a little ridiculous when the ball is right in front of the catcher but a guy with sub 60 speed takes off and is safe by a mile because the catcher seems to take his sweet time fielding it and throwing it down there.

I agree but perhaps it isn't as simple as plugging the same code into both offline and online. I posted earlier in this thread my theory on why some big problems don't get fixed. With only 1 programmer assigned to franchise and all the "stuff" they have added the programmer is overwhelmed. They need to cease adding gimmicks and focus on the core game.

A great example is quick counts. People are upset because quick counts doesn't seem realistic. There is no such thing as quick counts IRL but people expect it to be realistic and the programmer has to spend time fixing something which prevents the programmer from working on the core game.

Runners advancing on wild pitches
Balls curving exaggeratedly foul
Overpowered infielders

That would be a good start but I'd be very surprised if it gets fixed.

It's fine to replicate real life but balls were carrying and going distances that are unrealistic. The longest homer this year has been 463 feet. I've hit probably 10 so far that are longer than that.

I apologize for posting in the wrong thread, but for some reason all I'm allowed to do is reply and not to create a new thread.

Here's my issue: I am seeing absolutely zero injuries in franchise mode, and I cannot find where I might have switched injuries off. The only injury toggle I can find is manual/auto for roster management regarding injured players. I'm sure I'm missing something very obvious, but I can't find it. Thanks for any help.

Few things post patch :

Matte helmets have been added for the teams that changed this year

The bat sound for me hasn't changed.

I have a game going Orioles at Rangers. CPU vs CPU. Default sliders. Chris Davis just hit a home run onto the roof in RF at Globe Life with a distance of 476 ft.

Well I wouldn't classify QC as a gimmick, I used it the first year it was introduced and enjoyed it but went back to playing a full game since then.

I can't stress it enough, they need to fix the wild pitch issue coupled with the catcher showing zero interest in actually recovering the ball and gunning down the runner. I've thrown 7 wild pitches in the 14 innings I've pitched post patch which is odd since I threw 11 in the previous 13 games before today. Now my results on the offensive side could be the ebb and flow of a baseball season, time will tell having said that my offense certainly feels neutered all of a sudden and it's hard to ignore that it didn't start until that patch downloaded this morning.

On a side note, is there a way to delete the patch like you can in other games?

Quick counts is not a gimmick at all. It's a FEATURE that allows for a different way to play the game. It's no more a "gimmick" than Manage only mode. It's a very useful feauture that allows some of us with limited time to get in a 9 inning game while getting the feel and stats associated with a regular full count game. Without this I wouldn't play the game nearly as much so I pray they don't ditch this feature in future iterations.

Your repeated posting about QC and QM being "gimmicks" that take away focus from the "core game" is getting tiresome. I could just as easily post about how spending time on fixing issues seen in MOM is wasted time as it's just a CPU simulation that barely anyone plays. I could post about how development time should be spent on actual controller-in-hand gameplay, not OOTP-lite visual simulations. By the way, what's the difference between QM and MOM? Practically nothing, except in MOM you actually watch the gameplay.

But I'm not making that post because it's needlessly argumentative and inaccurate. All of it is "core gameplay," and if there is an issue with the game, the developers will hopefully do their best to fix it. I don't mean to play Internet police, but I wish you'd apply the same logic to your posting.

Really that's your complain? You kids are so spoiled crybabies your issues are colors 😂Wow

Why so many people seem to downplay issues like this? These are major issues for some people that affect realism and immersion. But I guess it is okay to call people spoiled crybabies on this board because they paid 60 plus dollars for a game to find out there are some issues?

Man there are corporate clowns on this board it seems.

Re: MLB The Show 17 Patch 1.04 Available Now, Patch Notes Included

Yea, that's very noticeable.

I don't know what it is but I have some issues as well. I really love the game but this feels like a beta of 18 to me. Which is not bad as sports games always go in cycles, but still....
