I haven't played a game since the patch, but reading here it sounds like the game now treats going to the bullpen as a mound visit. Is that right?

Anybody submitted a bug report? Hopefully that one gets fixed quick.

Re: MLB The Show 21 Patch 11 Available Today - Patch Notes

Personally I think the game is hands down better than 20. First time in years I’ve played multiple seasons in franchise, RTTS and even dabbled in Diamond Dynasty (pulled Trout Saturday out of a Headliners pack).

There are issues. I miss SOTS, but usually spent so much time with it I didn’t want to play the game by the time I had updated all of it.

I dont know. To each their own, but I wouldn’t go back to 20 after playing 21 if you paid me.

Some are reporting an issue there but some aren't having that issue.

I think 21 has needed more tweaking that 20. Both are amazing games so I can see people sticking with 20 for a number of reasons. I'm fine with 21 now that I've settled in nicely.

MLB The Show 21 Patch 11 Available Today - Patch Notes

People play what you enjoy and love. There is no wrong.

I know plenty of good peeps who love 21 and who love 20.

We have different things we enjoy out of the game.

Do what gives you the best experience. I am not going to try and convince anyone one game is better than the other.

Opinions will vary. And that is ok.

My hope is with feedback some things that in some of our opinions are critical features will return….and also hopefully big wholesale improvements to presentation (talking about play by play and color overhaul and the return of SOTS to next gen), franchise logic, CPU logic, scouting overhaul, player development overhaul, UI overhaul, there are a lot of things that are sorely over due and have been stagnant far too long.

As far as gameplay…..save for the exception to the (again my opinion) horrendous design decision to turf the discipline rating when dice rolling check swings (utter disaster and why I can’t play 21) it is a fantastic game. I have never seen gameplay being an issue. But too much was removed and the check swing issue is just awful.

So if your good with it….your good with it.

Some are not.

20 is a fantastic game….and for intensive purposes the gameplay on 21 is just as good save for that one critical design decision. Couple that with lost features and some things in terms of in game menus and UI going backwards (my opinion) and franchise logic going backwards….well there you have it.

Not the best release they have had and now I see this patch introduced a bullpen mound visit bug and although it may be a small thing…..the mound visit and then checking your bullpen to see how warm your pitchers are (that is why you do a mound visit as it helps the pitchers warm up faster and could increase your current pitchers confidence) just add’s to some mounting frustration.

But SDS will fix that. They are usually very good about cleaning up unintended bugs.

Anyway…..still loving The Show even if it is MLB 20.

All that matters is what makes you as the gamer happy!!!

20 is still my favorite version of the show ever, and I’ve been playing it since year one. Kind of bummed after seeing all the new equipment I. 21 and not having it in 20 because I’m a big equipment guy. But, truth be told once the games start, I don’t pay all that much attention to what the players are wearing anyway.

1. Stretch+Toss/Warmup
2. Mound Visit
3. Check Bullpen

When all done from the quick menu, it tells me that I have used my 2nd mound visit in the inning and must replace the pitcher. When I did the Mound Visit and Check Bullpen from the pause menu, I did not have to replace the pitcher.

Nice find.

Re: MLB The Show 21 Patch 11 Available Today - Patch Notes

Has anyone experience when you visit the mound* you have to take out your pitcher? The game counts my first mound visit as my second visit and I have to change my pitcher. This happened in franchise mode after the latest patch.

Yes. I had that happen for the first time today. That’s a new bug. And, hopefully it will be fixed very soon.

Re: MLB The Show 21 Patch 11 Available Today - Patch Notes

Does the adjustment to contact swinging with power hitters affect offline modes as well as online. I only play franchise and mainly use the contact button for most at bats, is this gonna affect my home runs with guys like gallo etc?

Yes it will.

Normal swing is what you should be using most of the time. Contact is in now way what you should be using most of the time.

Contact is a shortened up swing to make contact in tough counts and to move runners.

Sometimes you can hit HR’s with the contact swing. But you should not be using that swing expecting typical power numbers from guys like Gallo. That is why they tuned it. It was bugged on 21.
