Scorebug should be "Pitch" instead of "Pitches"?

Re: Scorebug should be "Pitch" instead of "Pitches"?

I honestly don't see an issue with this at all...

Re: Scorebug should be "Pitch" instead of "Pitches"?

Like the Y2K of Playstation baseball?!?!?! Oh no!

*logs into email*

Good thing my SquareTrade warranty explicitly states (that) "74 inning games resulting in the PS4 console exploding IS covered."

Phew! Too late in the Dev cycle to get this fix in!

I don't know if you remember World Series Baseball 2K3... if you stole 128 bases, you start going to -128 (it was an 8-bit array, I suppose). The same probably went for other statistics that one wasn't expected to go over 127 with, such as home runs.

This was especially strange for stolen bases though because you couldn't beat Rickey Henderson's 130 SB record.

Re: Scorebug should be "Pitch" instead of "Pitches"?

I have been watching many spring training games on MLB Network so far this year and of course the telecasts are from the different ballclubs and what I have seen is Pitches in ( smaller letters) and the numbers ( larger ). Just an observation.

Re: Scorebug should be "Pitch" instead of "Pitches"?

Remind me again why you posted here then? Perhaps you should go take your self to a thread more worthy of your time.

Because people complain about the smallest and most pointless things in this game. Oh, they're aren't enough sock colors, oh the shade of green on the small scoreboard in left field is more light green then light dark green.

And then when people do voice concerns over actual features that are desperate for upgrades like lack of improvements to franchise mode and RTTS over the years people flip out at them. I swear SCEA could murder puppies and people would still come to their defense.

"Well, That escalated quickly."

We get a lot of cat memes, but no dead puppies. Maybe Skinny Puppies a couple of decades ago...

Any way, check out the fact sheet. There were a few upgrades to Franchise and RTTS modes this year, so no need to call the SPCA.

Nice touch with the SPCA line! Hilarious.

Re: Scorebug should be "Pitch" instead of "Pitches"?

Hahaha...puppies. Let me say this. When I was a kid I memorized every jersey number of every player in the major leagues. I could probably still tell you most of the players of 1993. At one point I had all of their 1992 stats memorized from baseball cards.

What I want in this game is manager ejections like mvp (so I can pretend I'm an intense manager or something), the ability to call pitch and location in manager mode (even though i dont play it much) and the '89-'92 Mariners jerseys. I'd probably play wear them once or twice..

But baseball and baseball fandom is about little things, a degree of nerdiness and details. The guy just pointed out something about the score bug. I just told you three things that I think would make the perfect for me and they don't even affect game play.

Not every observation is a demand to put something in or "fix" something. Dude is just thinking out loud about a game.

I used to have a lot of career stats memorized too when I was younger. My older brother used to tell me, "if you spent as much time studying for school as you do reading the back of those baseball card!!!...."

It's the little things in baseball that mean so much to me. And the little things in The Show which make it my favorite game franchise ever.

The forum can be a little feisty this time of year; which it always does right before the game drops. I got jumped all over for pointing out the permanent sweat on hat glitch a couple weeks back. Still feel like I'm one of the only ones that notices that. LOL!

Re: Scorebug should be "Pitch" instead of "Pitches"?

When there is more then 100 pitches thrown by the pitcher there does not seem to be enough room on the scorebug to display the 3 digits. So it looks like this "Pitches111" instead of this "Pitches 111" So I have an easy way to fix this so the 3 digits fit. Just rename "Pitches" to "Pitch". I think it would look much as "Pitch 111". Besides I do see on a lot of real baseball broadcast they use "Pitch" instead of "Pitches" on the scorebug. I don't care if it says "Pitches" or "Pitch" but I kind of would like the 3 digits to fit better with a space between Pitches and the 3 digits

What do you think and could this be fixed before MLB 14 The Show is released?

Would be right if it read "111pitches"

Yes but the awesome thing is that you don't have to enter or read every single thread. If this thread is too petty for you, just stop being in it? Why waste your time posting in a thread that you consider to be a waste of time. It's quite hypocritical, and serves no purpose at all.

So who determines which of the concerns is more important? Everyone pays the same amount of money for the game and therefore has the same amount of rights to voice whatever concern they have to the developers.

You are supposed to preface any recommendation on here by saying how awesome the developers are and that this is the best game ever. That's the only way they allow for different ideas to be presented

No, you may pose your thoughts on MLB The Show - or any sports video game - constructively to foster positive discussion. You are allowed to criticize a game if you do so in a manner that is fair, constructive, and promotes useful discussion of the game.

To that end, if you have nothing constructive to contribute to the topic at hand - that being the score bug in MLB The Show - please refrain from posting in the topic.

Thanks, and carry on with the topic discussion.

Here's an idea: after pitch # 99, call for your bullpen !!!
