I'm gonna say it & it might ruffle some feathers...

Agreed, not there. I had a game yesterday where I took a two run lead in the top of the 11th. CPU comes up, one out, single scores the runner. I get another out, walk a batter. Next batter hits a deep fly to left. Sciambi yells out “swung on and belted”. I thought 2 run walk off. My left fielder catches the ball back against the wall.

If it goes out some are gonna scream “scripted”….”comeback code”.

I have no idea why the ball didn’t travel an extra 5 feet over the fence and I’m not even going to go there. The game replicates the game beautifully, IMO….I went from “oh, $hit!” When he hit it to….”yeah!” When it was caught.

It’s funny no one really talks comeback code when the User comes back.

That’s one thing I’ve noticed since the commentary team changed, you don’t instantly know it’s a home run anymore based on the commentary

I sell all my cards and buy home run calls, etc.

That’s a good question and I do not know the answer to that.

Yeah I think in parts it is scripted if a team is on a winning streak playing a bad game it is like their is a script there that the bad team is due to win and break that script and ignore any ratings what so ever.

Same goes for players as well. lets say a a BP has not been used much and the LR hasn't been used in a while you will find I will blast the CPU starter in the first innings so that the LR comes straight in it is like it was scripted to happen because the A1 thought 'oh LR is due to play'


I have seen it happen sure that is baseball I know but in a video game world it doesn't work like that with A1 and ratings are taken into account.

it is like the overall ratings have to match the stats by season ends./ so if a player who is a 50 overall ratings is hitting 400 in the first 20 games you know the game has to cool him off somehow and vice versa for a 90 rated player.

yeah I know nobody will believe this but it just feels that way sometimes.

The game is scripted as in the fact that it takes into account managerial moves when it comes to in game adjustment, starting line ups and rotations, etc.

I think this type of wherewithal that you mention, is meant to replicate real life baseball. Mangers, statisticians etc, know how games play out based on analytics. Its up to you to make the necessary changes or ride out this "comeback code".

if You make the correct or incorrect adjustment at the right or wrong time, a game will play out a certain way (analytics).
