Re: MLB The Show 20 Patch 1.04 Available Now - Patch Notes and Discussion
Brian, I appreciate you chiming in here and providing insight. Very helpful! Hope you and everyone working on the game are doing OK considering all that's happening in our world right now.
MLB The Show as a video game franchise has seen me through some dark times, most notably in 2010 when I was unemployed for over 6 months. The Show was there for me to escape the real world for a couple of hours a day and just enjoy our national pastime virtually. Now, 10 years later, the game is doing the same for me. After a long day at the office (which is now my home office), it's nice to step away from reality and dive into MLB The Show and have some fun.Currently Playing:

Re: MLB The Show 20 Patch 1.04 Available Now - Patch Notes and Discussion
So Brian sure does take alot of time coming in here which is great. His plumbing comment to the person meaning he doesnt get involved in other aspects of the game is obvoiusly expected becuase everyone has there own speciality they get hired for in most buisness. I know he sees the comments about asking for news on the franchise OSD bug and minor league options issue and im sure it gets back to the right people at the studio, my only thing is it seems that Brian is the only person from the team we ever see in here,(which is a priveledge for us of course) so is it they only want one guy to chime in on the forums here?or do the guys who specialize in fixing the 2 main franchise issues we have been mentioning have no answers yet and they dont chime in if at all untill they have a plan, so thats why we dont see anybody else but brian in here? i guess if someone chimed in and just stated " yes we are aware of these issues and will look into them accordingly but we have no guarentees of resolving it at this time" would probably go along way id think for some.Comment

Re: MLB The Show 20 Patch 1.04 Available Now - Patch Notes and Discussion
Up until 3-4 years ago, several devs and designers from SDS would stop in and provide comments and reply to questions. Ramone, Kirby, Lorne, etc used to participate in the discussions going on here.
They kind of cut that off, possibly because there were so many people breaking OS T.O.S. by the "hey dev" threads and so many people complaining and b***hing about the smallest little things. I didn't blame them, it was pretty negative on OS Forums for a while. It seems like a lot of those users that had no constructive way of expressing their issues have faded away. Still happens, but at least (as shown in this thread) people are inquisitive and curious for now, not just bashing the developers because their favorite player is rated 2 points lower than they believe that player should be (or whatever their "serious" issue was with the game).Comment

Two comments:
1. The best way to ensure that they are aware of ANY issue is to post them in the official bug/feedback reporting tool.
2. SDS ALWAYS has OSD issues at release (because...they are constantly adding to/updating them with every iteration). And, nearly all of them are quashed within the first 2 "big patches". I'm not too worried there...Play the games you love, not the games you want to love.Comment

True...but would have been easy to catch the OSD bugs if they went into franchise mode and played for like 10 minutes. Makes you wonder if anything was tested in franchise?? My plan...MTO and then go into franchise and play moments.Comment

The new dynamic which causes fielders to bobble ground ball needs to be scaled back. Starling Marte has made 2 errors in this manner in 3 games on relatively routine plays and he is an outstanding fielder. It also happens with infielders.
Keep it in the game but scaled it back or there will be record numbers of errors.≡Comment

IMO, the game played better out of the box. This latest game update/patch has been a step backwards. I wish they would just leave well enough alone...STEELERS INDIANS CELTICS

They tuned hitting and power. With the sliders I was using before, everything was spot on. Now I'm at polar opposites. So I had to up the FB speed to the slider of 8 to even make it challenging. But now I strike out a lot. So I'm getting a decent number of hits, but opposing pitchers are striking me out in bunches. Drop it to 7 and I can easily rack up 15 hits. And that's with my hit slider and timing sliders at 0. I know, I know...try another set or a different type. Well, I don't want to. I like the game the way I play it. So now the whole thing is an exercise of slider-itus, and once again I'll do this and it sucks the life out of the game for me. The out of the box smoothness and stats I were getting was so much fun. Now, not so much... I get it. I'm one person. But that's how I feel.STEELERS INDIANS CELTICS

So, just to clarify are we talking about a "stealth change" here since SDS said nothing about this patch affecting offline difficulty (only DD hitting)?
I'm glad B Ma got his two cents in before people start bringing it to this.....
DD = Diamond Dynasty for the purpose of this post.Last edited by bcruise; 03-21-2020, 11:54 PM.Comment

Re: MLB The Show 20 Patch 1.04 Available Now - Patch Notes and Discussion
I wont go so far as to say I've seen any power surge since the last patch (I play on dynamic difficulty, so I always feel insulated as much as one can) but I've already found 1 player in Pete Alonso whose power ratings are now over 100+
Diamond Dynasty is spilling its heart all over the stage. I know it's only the Show, but I like it.OSFM23 - Building Better Baseball - OSFM23

MLB The Show 20 Patch 1.04 Available Now - Patch Notes and Discussion
The day one patch and 1.04 were so close together I don’t think we can really say for certain exactly how much they changed anything.
I only got a handful of games in before the new patch so I really have a small sample size to compare to.
I also am playing on dynamic difficulty so any changes I do see could just be an increase/ decrease in difficulty.

Re: MLB The Show 20 Patch 1.04 Available Now - Patch Notes and Discussion
Too late... This latest patch absolutely destroyed the game out of the box. The game on legend out of the box was solid despite there being a few too many home runs. Now it's the opposite. I'm making perfect perfect contact and hitting ground outs and cans of corn. Meanwhile the cpu offense before was perfect and now they're raking. The cpu swings and misses before were perfect. Once again a patch screws up the whole damn thing. Sick of this crap year in and year out.
