Patch 1.09 is Live

Re: Patch 1.09 is Live

I have pitchers refusing to give in on HOF.....plenty. Judge leads the league in walks and i have drawn them all. Stanton in the top 10 as well. Sanchez getting respect.

The pitching AI this year is unmatched by any console baseball game I have ever played. Actually I have not seen it even close to this good since the High Heat series!

Yeah I get a lot of "oh it's 3-0, let me throw two pitches down the middle to get strikes" behavior that's both predictable and silly against a guy like Judge or similar.

Maybe the AI does that behavior because I'm very selective (low swing rate, low chase rate, at least by MLB standards - my swing profile is close to Carlos Santana last year in terms of O-Swing%, Z-Swing%, and overall Swing% and he walked about 14% of his PAs vs 9% MLB average), so maybe the AI feels like "well I better give a strike" instead of just letting me draw a walk and try the next guy.

Otherwise, it's not bad on HoF and I'll go back there if I can't get Legend to work out. It's solid but the sequencing gets too predictable sometimes and it costs walks I feel an IRL hitter would get.

I've raised solid hits to see how that goes. I have a feeling that will be part of the key, especially given how Directional works.

Re: Patch 1.09 is Live

I use manual fielding with Armor's exact sliders and my fielders are nice and silky, except when I expletive it up personally lol.

Think my sleeve comment may have gotten buried.

Haven't we been able in the past to adjust jersey sleeve length for actual players and not just created players?

Went to shorten up Folty's sleeve last night but cant touch any SDS players sleeves.

Maybe I was mistaken and we never could, but I really thought we could before.

We could edit sleeve length until they patched in adding face shields to players awhile back...

Re: Patch 1.09 is Live

Well it reset the stats for me....bizzare thing. Quick Managed an inning....jumped back into the game.....stats in the box score reset. Maybe one time thing? I don’t know.

I decided to try this. I went into Quick Manage in the first inning. All I did was substitute a player. I immediately checked the box score and it was completely filled out. 38 At Bats 1 Run 8 hits 4 BB 9 K's for one team, 37 AB 2 runs 7 hits 2BB 10 K's for the other team.. this is after only one pitch in the top of the first inning. It also gave a player a HR.

So, I quick managed through 9 innings. Checked the final box score. 70 AB 3 runs 16 hits 9 BB 20 Ks/ 65 AB 5 runs 14 Hits 4 BB 13 K's.

It's basically like 2 complete games were simmed.

So, I checked the box score on the calendar for this game. 61 AB 5 runs 13 hits 4 BB 11 K's/ 62 AB 3 runs 13 hits 7 BB 19 K's.

I checked the team player stats and these extra statistics are included in the team and player totals. So it throws everything way off.

Just thought I would let people know what i saw as well because I know people use QM in games sometimes.

Granted this is patch 1.07, but Armor had odd issues with this even on patch 1.09. So just a heads up.

I have pics of the screen but i guess I'll have to resize the images to post them....

On a totally unrelated note and completely off topic, Rafael Palmeiro just hit his first Pro home run in 18 years, a little while ago, about five minutes down the road from my house.

Re: Patch 1.09 is Live

Just wondering if they ever fixed pitcher’s eyes? I remember one of the patches made them look more zombie-like, but can’t recall if that was reverted? Just noticed some weird eyes lately, but it could only be certain pitchers.

I think you may have gotten your copy of The Show too close to your copy of The Last of Us. They have to be kept in separate cabinets. That is going to infect your whole league now.

Okay. I just played 5 innings and saved the game. Read your post, louded up the game and QM the rest. Box score was perfect. This is weird.

Also, don't touch the controller after playing The Walking Dead, Vampire: The Masquerade, or any Fallout game.

We don't know what will happen. We don't want baseball to be how the zombie get a foothold in our society.

Unless....we can coexist by teaching them how to play baseball???

Finally got some pics. This is the one i was talking about before - using Quick Manage during a game. Note the line score at the top. The first box score is in the top of the first inning before anyone hit in the game. The other images are Final after a 9 inning game.


Then the box score on the schedule (last two pics) is also different but from the same game. And all these players have all these extra stats recorded on Team Stats and leaders etc.

Re: Patch 1.09 is Live

As an added bonus I happened to also catch this picture, which i thought was kind of funny....

Re: Patch 1.09 is Live

Since I am receiving heartwarming PM's about being a SDS employee, trying to work for SDS, being the biggest Show apologist, and defending the game, I thought I would share this screenshot from the last game I played on DEFAULT LEGEND across the board to show that I don't see any nerfing of power or changes to hitting since patch 1.09.

Also you can see that not only are we hitting homeruns, but there were doubles, even a triple, and you can see the roller coaster ride that was this game to where I jumped out, the CPU came back and then I rallied in the 8th, and so did they, but I rallied again in the 9th to win the game.

If I knew how to do videos I would share videos as well to show that I'm not experiencing issues with fielding.

Hopefully those who view me as making stuff up because I'm not experiencing the negatives that others are will find this satisfactory.
