Outfielder Speed, Lack of Balls Hit Over Heads?

[torpidbeaver]

For those of you who have the PS4 version, have you seen like *any* balls hit over an outfielder's head?

I'm about 8 games in, and have seen a total of one ball going over an OFer's head, and that one could've been caught –*he went into a catching motion, just didn't grab it.

I'm thinking about pinching the slider for defensive speed, but I'm worried that it'll kill the stats. Anyone tried fooling with this yet?

EDIT: I was playing RTTS and saw a lot more balls going over heads, so I wonder if it's the MLB speed that's killing me?

Seen it in a few streams I've watched.

Have hardly seen any in about 5 games so far. Will definitely need to be adjusted. Also hate the cameras on all fly balls. Way too far away for my liking.

I was reading about this in the PS3 side as well. Are these balls more towards the gap that aren't getting over OF heads or are this balls hit almost straight over where they are positioned.

I'm just thinking to actual MLB games, and you rarely see a ball carry over a LF or RF player's head without being caught. CF is a little more common because there's more space. However, for the most part, it has to be a gap shot (or straight down the line) to get over an OF player's head.

Outfielders being to fast getting to balls has been an issue with MLB The Show for like as long as I have been playing which would be MLB 07 The Show on PS3. I really hope Sony developers will finally fix this issue in the near future. We should not have to adjust the sliders to fix what should already be a standard thing.

Try this:


fielder speed - 2
fielder reaction - 7

But this will also affect the infielders too. And the issue is only with the outfielders I believe.

2K allowed you to adjust Infielder/Outfielder running/throwing speeds all separately. tsk tsk
