    Let's discuss what we assume is broken with the new patch

    Things I have noticed (having played 120+ pre patch)

    1) On-line Baserunning is broken. offline works as it did before, tap LB1 to advance and to take a lead hold LB1 to keep running all.... it seem that now it's two taps to take a lead and not sure how to advance runners as double tapping doesn't always work and it seems to queue the command messing up the whole base running mechanics.... again, patch seem to have ONLY affected On-Line games

    2) Seems that there's no extra innings? visiting team wins if tied after 9 innings?? please tell me this is just a bug....

    3) Time-outs are also disabled for on-line gaming? This is understandable if it's due to the game freeze issue cause by the T.O call.

    Anything else I'm missing?

    PS: Sorry if this has been discussed in another thread.

    this was in their patch notes

    "Fixed an issue where a pitch could occasionally change path on its’ way to the plate, shifting from inside the zone to outside the zone within a frame."

    But it still happens all the time!

    Not sure what they did with baserunning, my guys don't take an extra step when I press LB anymore yet the guy I was playing was taking 2 extra steps with Ichiro AND getting back on the pick off

    That's all I really noticed in my first game since the update... This game has too many bugs it's losing it's allure to me

        the vast majority of people know what you're talking about if you say the bumper or the trigger

            I noticed the same thing with the baserunning online. Big Papi hit what I thought was a HR, but it hit off thr top of the wall. Of course I had my finger on L1 to advance while watching the ball fall an inch of going out. When I looked up, I saw he was just standing on first. I literally thought since his speed is 1, that the computer decided to stay...

            Then it happened every time u got a hit. I had to spam L1 abs hope they ran to 2nd base. Luckily I hit 6 homeruns and mercy ruled my opponent in the 6th inning...

            Guess I'm not going to play online again until this gets fixed....

              So far the gameplay bugs haven't been that big of an issue for me. Instead it's been much worse issues that never happened in DD before. Some of the minor ones include, pitch speed showing 0 mph, pitches jumping around much more often than normal, and swing timing being completely off. I could be way way out in front of a changeup and instead I'll be very late.

              Mainly blue screens. Multiple times during battle royale I've had the game crash as the pitcher is releasing the ball. I get the loss as a result. Because they are charging an entry fee for BR this is very alarming as it already cost me a few thousand stubs.

              I don't think I will be playing BR or DD until they fix the issues which seem patch-related and not server-related. Challenge failed is also happening at higher than normal rate, I'd say 90% for me. I can't even play a conquest game as it fails every time.

              Very disappointing, especially since you know there are people paying money for the mode. Even though I haven't paid any actual cash I still want my stubs back that I lost due to the game crashing, sadly I doubt that will happen.

                people are still freezing games. i'll never understand why people do this in regular ranked, I guess a number by your name is really important.

                  I played 4 H2H matches last night. Won all 4 without any issue other then challenge failed 1-2 times. I did notice the bug of taking a step off the bag but I found if I held R2 to slow the pitcher down it would let me take a step off. But 90% of the time you do that your opponent will throw over.

                    Classic baserunning controls are completely broken. This is true for online and vs the cpu. There is no way of advancing bases other than pressing L1. At first I thought that the d-pad on my controller was broken, so I tried a spare and had the same issue. So frustrating...

                      There's a workaround I found for the broken lead off. If you press L1 then R1 right after, you take a 1 step lead. I don't know why it works, but it does.

                        The workaround for baserunning is to highlight the runner you want to advance and select the corresponding base you want them to go to. It prohibits you from controlling multiple base runners, but at least you can get the lead runner to score.

                        I've also picked off about 10 guys since the patch.

                          Unless I'm not reading correctly this is exactly what you are supposed to do when Classic baserunning is functioning properly.

                            I've always used the bumpers. The bumpers are not working properly.

                              From my experience, none of the controls are working properly in online head to head, at least.
