Re: Community Day Questions, Answers, and Impressions

Regarding the new pickoff system, especially the deceptive.....some pitchers have a quick delivery home (Joel Piniero comes to mind but not left-handed). Will their "deceptive" move mimic their normal delivery?

Also, I can't remember if this has been addressed but is there the inside move to 2nd base?

To be honest I do not know how his deceptive was implemented. I only pulled off one deceptive for a right-handed pitcher.

I am not sure what you mean with your second question.

Re: Community Day Questions, Answers, and Impressions

Simple question : pitchers pickoff ability is based on which rating ? Fielding ?

The quality of the throw is based off their throw accuracy rating. As far as their actual ability to perform a pick-off, I am not sure how that is taken into consideration.

I have a question that is beyond pathetic...but here goes.

Did they correct the "rotating" of umpires this year throughout a series? It doesn't bother me at all but I did notice how the homeplate ump in the first game of a series then moves to first as opposed to third.

In other words, if you were looking down on the field, the umpires would "move" clockwise through the series but in '09, they rotated counterclockwise.

Brian said there is an actual pick-off rating "hidden"(meaning we just can't see it yet...or edit it....they couldn't get it anywhere on the front end of the player card/editor). Right now it's just two ratings I believe...1 being normal...2 being the better. He noted Pettite as being a 2.

If this has been answered, I apologize.

In franchise, does anyone know if the interleague schedule changes from year to year? In 09, the AL would play the same NL teams every year. Thanks!

It's been touched on but I don't think anyone has a difinitve answer yet.

Re: Community Day Questions, Answers, and Impressions

Well I do know that the teams change each year....but I remember the divisions being the same.
The TEAMS definitely change.

Yeah...I was just racking my brain for a question and came up with this.

This game isn't Madden. Each game is independently created and has difference focuses in its development cycle time.

Plus, I'm pretty sure you can't simply remove the part of the roof that needs to be open, it would take SCEA some development cycle time in my opinion if they were to make open versions of domed stadiums to get the right roof pieces to where they are in real life.

Most of Milwaukees early season games are played with the roof closed. So there shouldn't be sunlight/shadows on the field. I guess I'm just looking for realism.

As far as the Madden comment. I'm just saying if they can have stadiums that give you the option, I'm surprised SCEA couldn't...especially when I consider Madden such an inferior franchise compared to The Show.

SCEA could...they just chose to put their time and resources into things they deemed more important.

I didn't mean a certain pitcher in particular. Do you know if deceptive moves are generic? For some pitchers it won't replicated their delivery.

The 2nd question was asking if there is the "inside move" to second base, which would certainly classify as a deceptive move.

Here's an example:
