    Re: Armor & Sword & Marino's MLB The Show 17 Timed/Classic Simulation All-Star Slider

    A little update for those of you concerned with CPU and HUM offense.

    A simple tweak will help you:

    Solid Hits - 6

    Power - 6

    That's it. Just one click up for both AI and HUM will cure any perceived weak contact and lack of power.

    The game is awesome. And we are racing to the post season with the Yankees in both my 2017 Franchise and 1996 season replay. I have been streaming games and they have been just amazing.

    Once I complete the 2017 Yankees Year 1 and 1996 Yankees Season replay I will be finishing Year 2 of The Matheny Manifesto A Cardinals Fantasy Franchise as I play one and Quick Manage 5 (except for N.L Central divisional games) as we look to repeat of World Series champs!

    The Bacon Fictional Roster will then be on deck as I take on the Cleveland Indians in this awesome fictional franchise!

    Join me on Twitch to follow Jake Taylor, Pedro Cerano, Roger Dorn, Ed Harris and Rick "Wild Thing" Vaughn in their quest for an AL Pennant!!!

    Of course classic baseball will always be mixed in too with 1985, 1989, 1990, 1992, 1997, 2000 (coming soon) and 2001 season games sprinkled in.

    I hope everyone is really enjoying their franchises this cycle. I think the game is tremendous and the team at SDS can build on this for 18 and really make some significant improvements to CPU AI and presentation for Franchise Mode.

    The gameplay is really amazing for me personally this cycle. A few minor warts (which will be worked out for 18 IMO), but overall?


    Awesome Sauce.

      Does anyone else have a problem with hitting too many homeruns. Mark Trumbo has 40 homeruns at the trade deadline in my franchise. Most of the rest of the team is where I want them. I just feel like I'm hitting way too many with him.

        Anyone having really low strikeout numbers? I cannot strike out batters at all, especially with my starter.

            Madden get rid of the extras (SS/XF, HFA, media, scenarios, game plan) or turn them down considerably.

                Makes my skin crawl reading that. Whenever a new patch is announced I assume the worst and pray for the best. Unless they are tweaking the wild pitch logic I'd really prefer they leave the game alone and just let it be at this point.

                  "Improved catcher and pitcher animation efficiency when handling balls in the dirt around home plate."

                  Well, better late than never. Anxious to see how this changes things.

                      Here are the patch notes. I don’t expect anything significant to gameplay other than the improved catcher/pitcher animation logic.


                      Online Specific Improvements and Stabilizations:

                      Fixed the release point for several pitchers including Jordan Walden, Chris Devenski, Michael Fulmer, Houston Street.

                      Left handed pitchers will use quicker throws more often when fielding weak ground balls or bunts down the third base line.

                      Fixed the countdown timer not appearing for Daily Missions.

                      Offline Specific Improvements:

                      Improved catcher and pitcher animation efficiency when handling balls in the dirt around home plate.

                      Fixed an issue that would allow the visiting team to bring in a relief pitching, without the starting pitchers facing a batter.

                      Addressed a soft lock with Pat Venditte when entering the bullpen against a switch hitter.

                      Fixed Target Field's overhang being incorrectly called a double (now counts as a Home Run).

                        Tested it out. Fired up a play now game vs. Tigers. Had Tanaka IBB the lead off man and then start firing splitters in the dirt. Walked the next three guys. 9 of the 12 pitches bounced. Sanchez blocked 6 and was noticeably quicker to the 3 that got away. Only one WP that resulted in runners advancing. Small sample size, but I liked what I saw.

                                The OP is now updated with the most up to date sliders I am using. Post patch 1.11


                                The changes are to HUM/CPU power and solid hits now at 6 for both.

                                Also on quick manage set they have been updated and injuries on quick manage (and also straight sim) are now at 5 (down from 6).
