Wind Effect

Just finished my first game. Was the Jays playing in Kansas City. I have never noticed the wind having so much effect on flyballs before. It was actually a challenge to read where the ball was going to end up. Just wondering if anyone else was also noticing that?? Also, I can't seem to find where it tells you the direction and speed of the wind, if anyone knows that would be great. Loving the game by the way......

Re: Wind Effect

If you pause the game it's up by the box score. And yes I just played my first game and seen some lazy fly balls end up all over because of the wind.

Re: Wind Effect

That's actually a new fielding mechanism, not winds. Fielding has become a bit more challenging by adding more uncertainty to where the ball would land. You just need to get used to it by playing a bit more.

Re: Wind Effect

On that note, I always increase the wind speed slider up to 10. It doesn't make a 6 MPH wind blow more strongly, but your game might start out with a stronger wind in general. I've once had wind speed up to 40 MPH in MLB 12. It was awesome. Normally it sticks around 10-20 MPH though, but I've also seen still 0 MPH winds with the slider cranked up all the way.

It really varies your games, since sometimes the wind blows in, sometimes it blows out, and sometimes it's a crosswind. Great stuff.
