I think Armor is simply calling it like he sees it. I have to agree. It was bad before the patches, but it's much better now.

I'm neutral on this topic, but I'm unsure how to interpret the above statement. Are you claiming everyone else is lying or indicating that you have a slider solution that resolves the issue?

A simple "no" is my answer to your question.

Keep it at that.

Exactly right jeffy777.

That is all I ever do here. Call it like I see (play) it.

I ask anyone to tune into my streams anytime, please....tune in..or watch replays of past streams.

It’s all there.

I was previously unaware that you streamed. Watching a past stream now. With everything turned off I can't tell what hitting and pitching interface you're using. Do you mind sharing your settings?

Classic Pitching, Directional hitting, no visual aides, no controller vibration.

Pure clean screen baseball.

I don't even use the hot/cold zones, or the pitch ball marker.

Re: MLB '17 v1.08 Patch Released

I think most of you need to practice a bit more and stop complaining or increase your pitch control if you're not that good. Here's a tip, play all of spring training and take off quick counts..use this time to fine tune sliders and use the slider forums for tips and discussions. Also pay attention when you're pitching, turn off your tv if its in the background, stop talking to your gf or friend and just pay attention to every pitch you make..concentrate. I don't want SSD to make this game easy for casual players, i want it to be kept a sim.

exactly right! It's the "instant gratification" generation. The sliders are there for a reason. My guess is ,most that complain about the gameplay (other than the online debacle) have no idea how to play REAL baseball. Wild pitches happen, 1-3 per game is about normal, any more than that , you are doing something wrong. YOU, not the game.

Um...what?

That's like saying I need to be a better driver if my car won't run correctly...even though there's issues with the car and not me. I don't want a brand new car but just what I have to get fixed.

In this case bud the car is totally fine and you need to become a better driver The Show '17 had problems in the beginning but now its fairly fixed only annoying thing to me is how every check swing is called no swing. So just practice dude and work on your sliders or maybe get RBI Baseball 17 if you want something simple .

I suggest you look at actual stats as wild pitches don't happen 1-3 times per game even when combining the two teams. They actually happen roughly 0.68 times per game combined between the teams.

As for the rest, the condescending tone of your post is completely unnecessary and couldn't be further from the truth.

Only warning, posts like this won't be tolerated. You've got something constructive to add then feel free but telling people they don't know how to play the game, they don't know baseball, they just want something "simple" is overboard.

Re: MLB '17 v1.08 Patch Released

There are still some issues with the game that skill level or sliders just can't fix. It's getting better with every patch though. Hats off to SDS for continuing to crank these puppies out.

Re: MLB '17 v1.08 Patch Released

For information only...data from end of May:

As of May28, there have been 537 WPs in 1460 games in MLB. That comes out to about 37%...which means statistically the average is about one WP every 3 games or so.

There have been 537 WPs against 55,721 batters so far. That comes out to 0.009%.

Anyone who believes that 1-3 WPs per game is the norm is mistaken. I can control how many I throw when controlling the pitcher, but the issue I often have is that the CPU pitcher will wind up throwing 1-3 per game. Playing on default pitching sliders.

Bottom line is they need to tighten up the catcher animations and how far the ball squirts away, and tweak the baserunner logic.

Opposing team catchers are booting fast balls in the strike zone two to four times per game. Please explain how that's me doing something wrong.
