Instant Replay at every base

[UNIT180]

I was disappointed by the news the replay system hasn't changed...I hope next year we will have the option to challenge any play at any base. I know that sometimes the umps make the wrong calls in the game, but my question is if we don't have the ability to challenge calls at 2nd, 3rd, and home shouldn't the computer always judge them out or safe 100 percent correct for those calls since we can't challenge. Just my two cents

I would be surprised if this expands, actually I wish they would just take it out. These things always seem one sided to me because they never involve the CPU team.

I totally agree with you. If they'd won't expand it, I'd prefer they just take it out. Replays have became a very important part of the game now.

Is there a way to turn off the umpires making mistakes?

Yes you can in the settings.

I play the game as if replay challenges don’t even exist. I just turn off the option to where the umps sometimes miss calls. If it isn’t done right then I see no reason to use it.

This x1000.

Re: Instant Replay at every base

I definitely don't agree with those saying to take it out. As I said in another thread:

The sport itself has moved forward by expanding the replay system over the last few seasons. Like it or not, it's a HUGE part of baseball now that isn't going away, but will continue to evolve and expand. This is a simulation of real baseball and therefore should follow suit. It's a much more integral part of the overall sport and its presentation than rain delays for example. Manager challenges and reviews can potentially affect every single play on the field.

If they want to tout the game as a simulation/representation of real baseball, they simply have to expand it. They're just delaying the inevitable.

As for the CPU not using it, well the simple solution is to program the CPU to use it

I agree it is a huge part of baseball now, and I really want it to be in the game. But if it’s just going to be half done, then there isn’t a point in using it. IMO

Re: Instant Replay at every base

My feelings as well. If your going to have umpires blow a call from time to time allow us to challenge at any base. A game now can be won or lost on a botched call without user ability to challenge. To just have it at first was a good start, but this being the third year without any upgrade is definitely something that needs to be implemented. I would of full replay over a rain delay ten fold.

Re: Instant Replay at every base

Cpu doesn't use it so it's basically worthless in it's current iteration. And speaking of rain delays, if simmed games aren't also subject to rain delays it's going to be another worthless observer effect mechanic. Your starters will get even less innings, assuming you take them out sometimes, and the cpu simmed pitchers will still get 8 complete games a year, if it's not reflected in the sim engine also. Probably another mechanic I'll end up turning off or avoiding.

Agreed.

I don't foresee them expanding upon it anytime soon personally because they've talked before about how much time would have to be allotted to expanding this to be as robust as the community wants that it would take away from being able to advance the game in other areas.

I get that its part of baseball, but somethings are probably better left on the cutting room floor.

There’s another sports game that has gone down the road of adding but then removing features because they didn’t want to develop them and it’s been a source of frustration because it doesn’t stop there, other features start being added but then removed. For that reason I’m dead set against it. I’d like it to be expanded but if they don’t then simply leave it there as it is. It’s not doing any harm and you’re not forced to challenge a call at any stage so if you don’t want to you don’t have to, simple as that.

Re: Instant Replay at every base

I do wish they had focused on this instead of weather and rain delays this year, but I have faith that eventually they'll get to it. Hopefully that will be next year.

I'm aware of how it works but thank you for the explanation.

Re: Instant Replay at every base

I don’t get why it’s that much difficult... I’m no coder either so take it with a grain of salt!

But, shouldn’t it be as easy as adding a simple layer over miss calls?

I guess missed calls is, logically, something like :

If delta between ball in glove/foot on bag is smaller than x, then divide umpire skill (if they have variable skill) by delta, result is the probability of a missed call.

Replay is extremely easy. On delta lower than z, enable challenging the play. If missed call, reverse, if not, stand.

What I am not understanding?
