CPU Infielders: Why Hasn't This Been Patched?

[jeffy777]

Is this going to be patched? It doesn't matter what their ratings are: They get to everything, nail every single throw...and of course the insane jump/off-balance throws are nailed perfectly every single time, no matter who it is.

Sliders don't help. I have infield throwing errors set to 10 and I've still only seen ONE throwing error....ONE....and I've played this game almost every single day since release.

The only thing that sort of helps is lowering fielder speed to 2, but then the slower guys move like sloths and it just doesn't look realistic.

....and of course sliders aren't even an option when playing Diamond Dynasty.

Love the game overall, but this really needs patched.

Re: CPU Infielders: Why Hasn't This Been Patched?

I agree 100% with your point that too many infielders are making gold glove plays.

However I disagree with the rest of your post 100%. Way too much hyperbole.

The ratings definitely matter. Using my custom rosters where the average rating is about 40. You sure as heck don't trust the throw by your 29 arm accuracy 3B.

The issue is the base Mlb rosters have players with much higher rating. With 17 I consider a 3B with 60 ratings in all fielding attributes pretty good. While last year that would have just been average.

I agree with your opinion but no need for the hyperbole.

Re: CPU Infielders: Why Hasn't This Been Patched?

Ratings do apply in the example you used: trusting your own throws. However, that doesn't seem to apply to the CPU, which is what I'm talking about. They make EVERY throw, regardless of the difficulty and who the player is, and that's not hyperbole.

Additionally, as I said, I have seen only one single infield throwing error by the CPU and that is no exaggeration..even with the slider maxed out. You will see one hop throws, but they're always scooped by the 1B. I can show you the box scores from my franchise if you want...all goose eggs in the E column for the CPU, aside from a few drops in the OF.

CPU web gem throws regardless of ratings and no IF errors. It's not hyperbole, but it's what we have in the game right now.

That's just not realistic baseball and desperately needs patched.

Then I guess we are playing different games then.

My comment about ratings applies to cpu as well. Heck I recall a throwing error by the cpu last night. All with default error sliders. Could there be more errors? Sure, it may be a little under average right now, but nothing I really mind. I'm sure if I cranked error sliders up to 10 it would be a sloppy mess.

I do agree way too many amazing throws from ss and 3b are made by average players.

Not the right approach dude.

Re: CPU Infielders: Why Hasn't This Been Patched?

Complaints are the only way they will fix stuff like this.

Underdog, you said you use custom rosters with much lower ratings, which would most likely explain why you see different results.

Like I said, i love the game otherwise. This is just a really glaring issue that I'm surprised hasn't been addressed. I know the inane jump throws have at least been discussed here since the first week.

Thats the problem i have right there! You act entitled...you act as though they MUST fix something because the VIDEO GAME is not playing like you want it to.

Im not saying this forum shouldnt be used to address problems or glitches, but not to complain. You literally just said you are complaining so you will get what you want. Thats what 6 year olds do. We are grown men.

Why do you think this site is so heavily monitored and people get booted or shut down quickly when they go to far? You think its so they can make sure that important posts/complaints like yours get seen by the developers? No, its because society loses its integrity when they get behind a keyboard.

You are complaining about something that may or may not effect other people but you could care less, you want a freakin patch cuz something isnt going your way.

In the future, when you post something try imagining your TRUE intended audience (the game developers) are face to face with you. You would have more respect than to just complain in their faces.

Re: CPU Infielders: Why Hasn't This Been Patched?

I'm not trying to be disrespectful to anyone.. just wanting to bring some attention to this issue...not trying to simply complain. Providing feedback as someone who plays the game daily, loves it, and only wants to see it improve.

This is not some pet problem that only affects me. Just check the other thread I linked to....it's been a known issue since week 1:

http://forums.operationsports.com/fo...perfectly.html

So it seems this will affect everyone if they use default rosters.

If the issue doesn't bother you, then great...but please don't jump on me for trying to bring attention to it. I just want this aspect of the game to play more like real baseball as it has in years past. Like I said, I love the game overall, so I'm only trying to help.

Re: CPU Infielders: Why Hasn't This Been Patched?

I have to agree with the OP as well I see this a lot especially the jump throw cool in the beginning when you first see them! I even pause the game and check the guys stats just to make sure! I play from a slightly different perspective with player lock and game watch for all 9 innings for all 162 games offline. I also use OSFM rosters with default and occasionally tweaked slider while also putting an insane amount of hours into game play. So I definitely see a wide range of issues with it.

After playing over the last 5 years the way I have come to deal with these types of issues or annoyances. Is to simply just let it be and try to deal with it. It's easier said than done and yes it can be difficult for things that are glaring issues.

I think there were some decent improvements overall this year and I think in another 2-3 years we will get some good defensive organic gameplay so investing then might be ideal. But there is also a lot to enjoy in MLB 17(offline) and (some what!) balances out the good vs the bad

Let me clarify.

Using base mlb rosters I've seen a decent amount of throwing errors from the cpu with default sliders.

It's probably a bit below mlb average, but it isn't an issue for me.

For the amazing jump throws from average fielders, those unfortunately happen every game with the base rosters.

I don't see the amazing jump throws on my custom roster.

I don't think the throwing errors need a huge patch, just a slight #'s tweak.

The jump throws are a large issue and hopefully something they overhaul for 18.

That's my stance.

His post is well within the TOS, and he states his point well, especially beyond just the original post.

Making a complaint about something doesn't make you a child.

Re: CPU Infielders: Why Hasn't This Been Patched?

I understand and i didnt take you as someone that wanted to sounded like they were complaining and whining. I just think its the "regulars" on this forum that need to pick and choose their battles and research similar complaints before they just jump on here and vent their frustrations. The straight up a-holes are easy to spot, but often times people are mistaken as d-bags when they are not trying to be and it's because even the "regulars" have a complaining tone to their posts and discussions.

I know this isn't the first time this issue has been brought up. Incidentally, i agree with you on this issue. I have been there, playing the game when something "unrealistic" happens and I just wanna pause the game and jump on here and vent about it. But if we do that, we are just being selfish and "unrealistic" ourselves.

Gaming has come a long way in terms of the company/consumer relationships. This demanding/instant gratification attitude that gamers have has got to tone down. The way to fix that isnt by booting the straight up a-holes like the moderators do, its by reaching the bulk of this forums gamers (good guys like you and me) and getting them to engage/create discussions instead of venting in frustration.
