Is the wind working properly?

[WhiteM5]

Does anyone else sense that batted balls aren't being affected in-flight? I've had as much as 18mph side winds and the ball trajectory doesn't change. Is the wind being factored into the outcome before it is even in flight I wonder? I don't see drift, does anyone else?

Not that it isn't possible (but really, this would be amazing in real life), but I had Hanley Ramirez hit a 460ft. HR to center field into a 16 mph wind, then in Coors field he hit a 420 ft. HR to right center field into a 14 mph wind.

Yeah, I just played a 1 mph wind game, and a 14 mph game. I saw no difference in ball-flight and no affect at all.

So it's safe to say "wind has no effect on this year's game".

The more you play this game the more you see things that make you scratch your head.

No organ music. Wind doesn't work properly. Low fielding cam removed. Slow pitch delay removed. No online co-op. Select menu info removed.

Hopefully some of these things can be patched or added back in next year.

I don't mind, I would love the wind to work dynamically, with gusts and change of directions and differences at altitude very realistically. If that's what they're working on then its worth the wait and until then I can be ok without it this year. Maybe wind is part of a whole dynamic weather package they are working on for this game

Select menu info has been moved to touch pad. It's still in game.
