Beaserunning is absolutely broken. I have tried bothe settings, assist and auto. There isn’t any difference other than on auto, the ai takes stupid chances and leads your guy off the bag for you. I have had every release of the game and have grounded through each year hoping they would address this but they haven’t. If you have a guy on 2nd or 3rd, you get a hit in the gap, your trying to send the runner to third or home only for them to go a few feet and turn around and run back to the original base, all while having the advanced base highlighted above their heads. This also results in two players ending up on the same base , with one being tagged out, or the runner leaving so late from his return trip to the bag that her is thrown out! When the ai is up, this never ever happens, and they run like they have rockets tied on their backs. This is so frustrrating and aggravating that words cannot explain. Please please please fix the damn base running in this game!!!!!!!! Oh, or patch it to give us a manual option, not just assis and auto.

Re: BASERUNNING!!!
This has been an issue in the past two versions I played, 16 and 17, and was hoping they'd have it fixed for 20, but it's the same. Can't understand it because it wasn't an issue years ago, from 15 and before, I believe, everything was fine.
I prefer auto baserunning, but this bug has forced me to use a combination of auto and assist. I just have to remember to keep an eye on the runners and if they're doing something stupid, like not running when they're supposed, then I do it manually.
Extremely frustrating to have a runner forced out at second or third on a base hit to the outfield. And user-controlled runners shouldn't be stealing on their own.It's on me. I shook his hand too hard. It was a hard ... kind of a slap-shake.

Re: BASERUNNING!!!
MVP's was easy and intuitive. Take a lead with R stick. Steal or advance to a given base by hitting the desired base a la D-pad. Slide with same R stick to a direction you choose. Advance or retreat all with L and R triggers. Pick the individual player you want to command -- pick the corresponding game button to the bag. Simple.Comment

Re: BASERUNNING!!!
Does anyone have their runner/s instantly go back to the base after you hit the ball, happens to me 2-3 times a gameComment

Re: BASERUNNING!!!
It's why I use classic baserunning on the show. I have no issues at all with baserunning. If I'm on 1st and I want to go to 3rd all I've got to do is hit the circle to highlight the runner on 1st and then hit the left on the directional stick and he runs to 3rd with no problems. If I want all runners to advance I hit L1. If I want all runners to retreat I hit R1. Easy peasy.Atlanta Braves

Re: BASERUNNING!!!
Default is super easy also. Only real difference is left stick highlights runner and the buttons correspond to the bases. And I’m not even good at it. 99% of the time it’s advance all/retreat all. I’ve definitely left runs on the field and have run into outs because I don’t think quick enough to pick individual runners, but that’s on me not the game.

Re: BASERUNNING!!!
My biggest issue with baserunning is stealing bases, I'm talking specifically to stealing in franchise mode simulation (not gameplay). Too many players that never steal bases are taking way too many attempts, i.e. sandy leon has 1 steal and 5 times caught. He has only taken 2 attempts in his career and I'm pretty sure at 31 you ain't getting fastest lol
Also I dont know why pitchers are taking too many attempts, mike mikolas got caught twice and I'm only in mid May ( there are many more)
It's just an eye sore when you open a player card and see miguel Cabrera has 4 caught stealing when he has only 1 attempt in his last 4 years... once again I'm only in MayToronto Maple Leafs

Re: BASERUNNING!!!
Lower the steal frequency slider. That should help

Re: BASERUNNING!!!
I use classic base running also and the only issue I have is stealing, but the problem has been the last couple of years that the runner would take off waaaaayyyyyyyyyy too late, almost when the ball is at the catchers mitt.
One thing though Im seeing often this year is that the AI is more aggressive running the bases, like on a single to left field they would attempt to get to second base, and they will if you are not paying attention.Comment

BASERUNNING!!!
Yes this I’m seeing a lot more of. Lots of time they would be out by miles at 2B but the throw is almost always offline. Even with runners with like 20-30 speed. When it’s online, the guy on 2B basically just stands there and wait for the runner, surprised he didn’t fall asleep by the time runner got there [emoji38]. The runner doesn’t try and stop and run back, they’re just running and be like oh I’m out by miles, oh well kept chugging along until he finally gets tagged.
But we have complained they’re not as aggressive in the past versions.. now they are just a tad too aggressive. So they did listen to us.. just need it to be in middle.

Re: BASERUNNING!!!
Just had this one today. 1st and 2nd, no outs. A little blooping liner gets by the pitcher and hits the ground. Runners both stand on 1st and 2nd the entire time. I didn't hit any buttons. It's on manual, but shouldn't the runners take off as soon as the ball hits the ground.

Re: BASERUNNING!!!
I have not had to much trouble with the running. I do tend to take over the running at times as they stop from scoring on a play they need to pushComment
