Throwing to Bases - BIG PROBLEM (EA PLEASE READ) !!!!!!!!!!

[Hoos]

Okay, let me first say that I really love this game and know that no game is perfect. But, it really kind of bothers me that the throws to first base after ground balls to an infielder or just throws in general are so damn fast !!! Probably better than 95% of the runners going to first are getting thrown out before they are even half way down the base path. This is pretty much the same regardless of the throw strength or how deep the ball is hit into the holes. The CPU has actually thrown out a few of my runners after a base hit to right field as well.

Is anybody else seeing this ??

EA, add this to your list of tweaks for next year along with the lack of CPU homeruns (don't revert to Triple Playesque numbers PUHLEEEEEAAAAAASE) and CPU strikeouts!!!

Hey guys, usually the use of a question in a post should trigger an ANSWER !!

Sorry for being impatient but it's not a hard question.

i don't see what the big deal is......not a whole lot of runners are turning a hard ground ball into a close play at first in real baseball.

it's not a HARD question, no......but that doesn't mean it's a good one, necessarily.

if you want the plays at first to be closer than they are, then give the batter a few seconds before you throw it, and then barely throw it at all.

The runners do seem slow on grounders, but when turning a double play, they seem about right. Weird.

i dont want to sound like a broken record but I have posted this problem too......baserunners going to first are always out by 20 yds....its very unrealistic but they seem to run the rest of the bases fine??.....wierd. I hope they fix this for the PC version along with the oddball AI moves at times

Turbo, the game should do that by default. Why should the user be forced to make things closer on purpose?? Hopefully they'll have it fixed for the next game or provide sliders for adjusting it ourselves like HH and WSB has.

I still think this is the best BB game this year but it has a few frustrating inaccuracies
