Sliding into first

As good as this game is on SO many fronts, the sliding into first idiocy nearly RUINS the entire game. It's the dumbest f'n play in baseball, it's NEVER viable and yet the computer automatically makes my guys slide into first REGULARLY. Please, please, please fix this idiocy. It's soooo bad.

Me neither, unless I do it myself.

I wouldn't say it's "NEVER" viable either. Happens in real life quite often.

Re: Sliding into first

60 games in (55 or so franchise, the rest exhibition)... i've seen the slide into 1st base once -- and i manually did it on purpose that time.

If you're using analog hitting, try releasing the Right Stick quicker after your swing as you might be pre-loading a head first slide without even realizing it if you're still pushing up on the RS after the swing has completed.

If you're not, I don't know what to tell you.

sounds like your controller needs to be re-calibrated as it thinks dead center is something different. Simply restarting the system and making sure the sticks were not being touched at all, re-calibrated controllers on older systems, I do not know if that works on the new gen.

Re: Sliding into first

Yeah, I don't really know what people do to cause this, but it's clear there are people who seem to have issues with it every single year. And it never happens to me.

With no motion control sliding on PS4, I'm guessing it's probably holding the analog stick too long after a swing like someone else mentioned.
