Re: MLB 14 The Show - Carry Over Saves to Future Versions, Generated Pitch Counts & M
There's a ton of applications for generated pitch counts. You can use it in Spring Training/Minor League games, or blowout games when you just want to move on... You can use it online, in online leagues, where you are required to play a particular game by a deadline.
You can use it if you suddenly realize you need to leave the house (I assume you can pause at any time to enable or disable this feature), and want to wrap the ending of the game up as quickly as possible.
And let's not forget RTTS, because lord knows I'm definitely using generated pitch counts when I'm stuck playing for the Mississippi Mosquitoes or whatever nonsense team they have me on!Comment

Re: MLB 14 The Show - Carry Over Saves to Future Versions, Generated Pitch Counts & M
Over the last several months, my gaming time has reduced drastically. I used to have about 2 1/2 hours worth, but now I'm limited to just about 1 1/4 per night. This is simply just not enough time for me to thoroughly enjoy a full game of baseball at the pace I like to play at while guaranteeing getting at least one full game done (confession: after every game, I look through my MiLB player performances too, as well as look around the league for stats/standings/award races/trade possibilities/etc).
And I hate fully simulating.
Now I'm not saying I'll use GPC frequently, but I greatly prefer this option as a time saver and still being able to earn my stats.
I applaud it and my current life situation make this feature (as well as the importing Franchise files year to year) a guarentee to get some use out on for me.Comment

Not sure if this has been asked, but would our rosters from this year carry over, like my 88-13 Roster...Comment

I'm using GPC all the time. Not some of the time. Not when I'm only busy. Not just to try it out. Not because I know no better. All of the time.
Great feature that has been sorely missed in baseball since All Star Baseball.
And the save file addition is another feature I've missed since the High Heat days.
If SCEA found a way to incorporate High Heat's pitching model of throw ball or strike and select a zone, I would be incredibly happy. But small steps.

Re: MLB 14 The Show - Carry Over Saves to Future Versions, Generated Pitch Counts & M
I agree with CMH. Im only using GPC. I remember the first time i used it in All Star Baseball. That, along with the jump in anytime sim engine of MVP are two of my favorite features of any baseball game. GPC allows those of us that are less patient still experience actual baseball with walks and realistic pitch counts. It allows for games to be played quickly so you can actually get through a season. I can understand why you may not like this feature, I dont like to Sim, but I have to tell you, when i tried this many years ago in my younger days with ASB when I had all the time in the world, I loved it, and now that time is harder to come by, I think its going to be amazing.Comment

MLB 14 The Show - Carry Over Saves to Future Versions, Generated Pitch Counts...
Now if they could also add the option to save exhibition/show live games to continue later on without the stamina and confidence bar resetting I'm willing to pay double

It does it in franchise games, too. I really agree with this one. It means in-game saves come at a cost and really hurts the feature. I hope SCEA sees this in this thread.
What I wanted to say was I am surprised at how many people are happier about generated counts when I am really REALLY excited about carry over saves.Comment

Actually....I can see a problem with ratings dependent only GPC's.
Do you ALWAYS want Clayton Kershaw to have an 0-2 or 1-2 count on the weakest hitters in your lineup or on your team?
(I'm just using a top line pitcher here).
I guess it's tougher than I thought.....and while I used it in ASB2005 because of there not being enough K's....
That game wasn't the best at simulating stats.
Very interested to see what they came up with!

Re: MLB 14 The Show - Carry Over Saves to Future Versions, Generated Pitch Counts & M
Regarding generated pitch counts there needs to be an option to turn it off. I use MOM and with generated pitch counts you can't work the count to set up a steal of hit & run.
It is a good option for those who want to speed up the game but for me the game is fast enough on fast play with animations turned off.≡Comment
