Re: MLB The Show 20 Patch 1.03 Available - Patch Notes Here

For me, I'm just a franchise player, could care less about all the DD stuff, but I'm willing to pay an extra $20. I'm a baseball junkie. I was at least expecting a new patch when I woke up and powered up the PS this morning, but......nada. Isn't there normally a big patch on the official release day?

I believe this patch..1.03...was the release day patch for '20.

I would expect the next patch to be around the first part of April. Just a guess.

First game after patch yielded a total of 7 homeruns between myself and the Astros.

It also resulted in the Astros beaning 3 of my batters

Jeeze! 7 homeruns??? I am lucky if I hit one in a game right now. Which batting style are you using CB?

If that’s true a big ‘booooo’ from me. You’d think after all these years someone would have spent some time updating the pencil necked gargoyle looking managers and coaches so they at least didn’t look like they belong in Interplay Baseball over a decade ago. What an eyesore for this great looking game. So, if you are hoping to see real managers/coaches in the game (and that’s a maybe), hold off a couple weeks.

Well we combined for 7 homeruns. I hit 2 and the Astros hit 5, with Altuve hitting two of them.

I use Zone hitting with the WIDE batting camera.

Yea its really sad. You have coaches/managers that were hired in October and aren't in the game yet? Really, no excuse. Little stuff like this and missing prospects (even top ones!) when you advertise full minor rosters hurts credibility. It's hard to start a franchise right now because I want correct managers and players not fake Nickelodeon looking players. This generation of gaming as been overall lackluster. Its just an excuse for companies to release unfinished games while charging out the a$$ and taking months to update...if at all. It's just insanely frustrating for an offline gamer.

Are managers/coaches patched in or are they done via a roster update?

Just asking because I honestly don't know how they are added to the game.

And for the record, I have nothing other than personal opinion to go on when I state that patch 1.03 is the release day patch and that another patch is a couple of weeks away. That is purely speculation and my thoughts on when it may happen. For all I know they could release a patch tomorrow, later this week, later this month, or not until June.

Last I checked, no game released in this era of gaming has been perfect. They all have issues. This patch came out and we should be happy it did. There's no telling when the next one will drop, due to the unprecedented nature of what's transpiring in our world right now.

Are there things that I wish were in the game or working as intended? Of course, but I'm happy to let it all slide and embrace the fact that while all real-life sports are on hiatus, I can lose myself inside the virtual baseball diamond for hours at a time.

SCEA has a track record of doing right by its fans, even if you bring up legacy issues they haven't touched or they focus more on certain modes than others. They can't please everyone, but to say they're not trying their best or committed to putting forth the best product possible, isn't fair.

Try and make the best of what we have and again, celebrate the fact that this game is available for us to play.

Re: MLB The Show 20 Patch 1.03 Available - Patch Notes Here

I played Detroit/San Diego and I was killing it with the Padres. Everything I hit was a Home Run/Double or a fly out. Everything the CPU hit was an opposite field fly out or a home run. I tried using the sliders I saved from MLB 16 then I played Cubs/Nationals and there were doubles/bloop singles/a lot of opposite field hits but no ground outs to the infield. So it looks like this new patch won't fix anything.

You must be a DD player. That’s the only way I can think you’d be able to justify the mentality “just be lucky we have something”. Franchise players like me are meant to use workarounds in a core mode that isn’t working properly this year, that was working fine last year. Right now you can’t even do a proper rebuild because any prospect you send down before spring training right now goes on waivers and you essentially lose them for nothing (this is against the actual roster rules of baseball).

Sure. Have a glass half full attitude if you like. But to act like everyone else who spent $60-$80 for this product should just be happy with what we got is ludicrous

Edit: so if I sale you a car I advertise as brand new, and the transmission is shot, should I reply to your complaints with “well at least it starts. You should be lucky in these times with what’s going on that it even starts”

I've been hitting quite a few homeruns along with some oppo shots on default legend. Ronald Acuna has been hitting about 1 a game through my first 10 games or so. So far could be the game replicating last years homerun output.

However, I've noticed myself and the computer have been a little on the lighter side as far as scoring and total hits.

This was the first game where I saw a power surge like this. In fact, I was thinking prior that homerun totals have been down versus that of '19

Having perfect’s will impact these numbers, you get perfect more often then not you’ll get a solid hit (home runs)

Little bit less reliant on the dice roll

It’s weird that you and purist are seeing these results as I am experiencing the complete opposite. The majority of my hits are doubles and singles and I am rarely getting home runs, but scoring a ton of runs (7 in my last game). Must be something with zone hitting, because I am using directional and even guys like franmil Reyes and pete Alonso are displaying warning track power at best. I am even considering cranking up the power slider
