One additional point with the new functionality is that preloading becomes more important for "catch to throw" scenarios. If the user is still holding the button and the second or third triggering mechanism (as described above) has not been completed when the branch point in the catch has been reached, the fielder will not branch to the throw. Instead, he will complete the catch animation (i.e. full anim duration till he hits the "throw ready" pose), and then use a throw ready."

MLB '10: The Show Video: Throw Meter Improvements
Check out the throw meter improvements in MLB '10: The Show.
"In addition, new throw meter functionality affects both strength and accuracy taking into account the thrower's attributes. The harder you press the stronger and potentially more inaccurate your throw. For example, light taps for fielder's with weaker arm will result in weaker throws than the same tap with fielder's with stronger arms. Hard presses with fielder's with inaccurate arms will be more likely to go offline than the same press with fielders with more accurate arms.

Re: Throw Meter Improvements
Cool video. But I don't understand why people didn't understand how the throwing meter works. Obviously, the closer to the red, the harder but less accurate a throw is going to be.Comment

Re: Throw Meter Improvements
I'm still not clear on the branching animation aspect. Does this mean I should press the throw button BEFORE touching the ball? Or does it mean I should continue holding the button throughout the catching and throw sequence? In other words, what exactly is required to trigger the branch animation correctly?Comment

Re: Throw Meter Improvements
That is a head scratcher, cause when my meter is not full, the throw is more lazy, and when it is red, it is much harder and sharper. And sometimes more offline and the first baseman or other infielder has to stretch or move out of position, depending on the fielder.Last edited by EnigmaNemesis; 03-23-2010, 04:53 PM.Ⓥ Boston Red Sox | Miami DolphinsComment

Re: Throw Meter Improvements
The game is NOT EVEN CLOSE to how bad some are even making it out to be.
Hell, I love this game and play it every day. It's the best baseball game ever made IMO.
Every game has bugs and glitches but not every company fixes them. The fact we have two patches already and people are demanding more is crazy to me.
People act so dang entitled it's not even funny. I am 31 years old and dont remember when or how things got to be this way.Comment
