Auto-Baserunning Issues

Re: Auto-Baserunning Issues

It's a legacy issue they never fully fixed from last year.

Re: Auto-Baserunning Issues

I have many videos of both these. I even have a video of the AB cancelling on a foul ball (with no one on base) so I know it is not me causing this problem for the conspiracy theorists. I would post them all but it takes too long to upload and no developer seems to want to acknowledge or dispute the problem. And Milennium has also yet to provide feedback from developers. I have never seen a post where SDS said it was user error. They can't. They just have to play a full game with AB on and it will happen with runners on base. Most of the naysayers have never done just that. I certainly hope they patch it because I tried MB and I suck at it..lol. Plus, I like to watch the play unfold without worrying about whom to advance or whom to return.

I will say since the most recent patch the AB issue is not as frequent as after the first patch, but it still costs me scoring opportunities or flat out runs every game.

You can manually override AB on foul balls. I'm in the number that had this issue consistantly for a few months in 2016 before I totally changed my grip on the dualshock. I love the ability to override the AB decisions, and despise full time manual base running. I wish they would have implemented an option to to disable overriding, that seems like it would have been the cleanest solution and would please both sides.

I can tell you that since the latest patch the AB cancelling has occurred less frequently. Essentially back to what it was before the 1st patch. So I can tell you that the problem is not my grip but apparently the cancelling isn't occurring as frequently. Sounds like a developer problem to me.

Edit: Just saw a new patch. Haven't tested with new patch.

This is not fixed in the patch, I just had it happen again and it cost me a chance at scoring runs. No outs and a guy on first, single through the 3b and ss and I look up and the guy on first is standing there not moving. I adjusted my grip on the controller weeks ago when this was happening and keep my fingers below the R1 and R2 buttons. Very frustrating as this is very much a problem with gameplay.

Just played a game post patch and I agree it is still there, but it is much better than it was after the first patch. It makes me wonder if the change in hitting sound had anything to do with it. Doesn't seem like it would but it is odd that when they changed it back it was improved.

Guys -

As much as I love the conversation about it, keep capturing video. Unfortunately at this point words have so many different meanings due to interpretations. Video is the BEST way for me to communicate issues.

Re: Auto-Baserunning Issues

One issue that occurs even with manual base running that I had happen once is the runner on second tagging up on a double that ended up dropping, which prevented him from scoring. I don't know if this is a major issue as he could have just misread the play but it would be nice to have some control.

I am happy to do it as long as developers are saying they need more examples and are not saying it is user error. The reason I say this because vids take a while to upload. And I can't play the game while they are uploading. Thanks.

Figured out how to upload them quickly. Here are a few links:

Here is one where I intentionally tried to cancel AB and AB stayed on. This was for those who think they can manually cancel AB on foul ball.

Off topic: I have also included a link to show the uniform glitches I have been requesting for years that SDS fix. We should not see this in a next gen game. You can see the glitches in sleeves of all players and in their equip. I hope you can pass this along to SDS too. Thanks.

Re: Auto-Baserunning Issues

I had an issue with baserunning in a Diamond Dynasty game against the CPU. I had runners on first and second with Ken Griffey Jr. standing on second. I pushed L2 so both would steal. The pitch was in the dirt so it should have been easy for Griffey to reach 3B. However, when the catcher threw to the third baseman I noticed that Griffey was just standing there half way between second and third.

Re: Auto-Baserunning Issues

Couple more videos:

First video is AB cancelling.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7loFsJZPOqY

Second video was very next pitch were there was no AB cancelling. If it was user error pitch before, why not next pitch?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CU38_mp3aNY

Final video is the very next batter and no AB cancelling

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7O0yQbnXTY

The point of these videos is to show the randomness of the AB cancelling. IMO it is in the coding. I hope these videos help SDS with root cause analysis. As I have indicated, the cancelling is less frequent since latest patch but still present.

Re: Auto-Baserunning Issues

There was a time when Autobase running the CPU wouldn't lead off and take off and steal by it;s own, it;s really annoying that they added this in 2 years ago. I liked autobase running but when I could control if I still or not. I have been picked off thanks to the restarted CPU. but I make more mistakes with manual baserunning

Re: Auto-Baserunning Issues

I have only played one game since new patch, but can confirm AB is vastly improved. I got thru an entire game with only one cancel (first time in 2 years). And it was on a tag up. Although it canceled, the runner returned to base to tag up. I just had to manually have the runner advance on fly ball. Millennium or SDS can you confirm this was worked on in patch 1.07?

I will update this post once I have played a few more games for those who used to us AB and had given up. If the patch has largely addressed this problem, I think many AB users are going to be very happy.

Re: Auto-Baserunning Issues

And for those who still think AB canceling is user error, I will post later a video of the AB canceling on a pick off throw. I will be very interested in explanation of how user can do that?
