    Fielding is just broken

    Why do my players constantly catch a ball off the wall and then proceed to do one of those lazy throws into the field giving the runner and extra base? Why do my players constantly "hump" the wall? By "hump" I am refering to a running catch where they are then sucked into the wall and keep standing up against it instead of throwing the ball into the field. Often this results in a runner from 3rd or even 2nd coming in for a score. There are many more but god I hope these are fixed in the next game. I shouldn't lose a game because of the errors within it.

      What is that supposed to mean? I put down $60 on this game thinking that I wouldn't have to combat the AI anymore to win a ball game. It turns out I still do. I still love the game but this is just very annoying.

        Yeah that would be your fault, you have to preload your throw. Yeah it sucks, but that is the future with these video games. Preload is your friend!

            Yeah, don't just tap the L1 button, or the X button, or what have you, you have to load your throw by holding the button longer, I've had no problem with this.

                  Yea, as mentioned, if you want to throw hard you have to hold the button and the fielder will fire the ball. The fielding is better after the patch that throws in a playable camera angle but it still has issues. I've stopped playing this game because it still needs another bit of polishing IMO but I guess some folks are getting mileage out of it.

                    Hmm I will try pre loading. So it works like MVP used to? Hold the button before I actually have the ball?

                      That and hold it down longer.
