This news just made my day. Thanks Ramone- hope you guys can get it patched back in!

I have a feeling the rumor may have started from this post:

But all of that was merely speculation and relating it to my own personal experience. I didn't try to pass any of that off as fact, so I guess somebody must have taken that and ran with it as though it were. This is why I don't do long speculation posts too often - they're too believable.

I mentioned in a later post on that thread that the game was still tracking the plays it was supposed to be saving for the highlight reel, so that did give me hope that this was actually an oversight.

Thanks Nem , even though that's not what I wanted to hear

What does "design decision" mean in developer talk? Is it a space limitation? A time issue?

Basically it was done to reduce downtime in the game and keep things moving along by getting back to the field of play, next pitch etc.

It does help speed things along. I usually mess with the cpu foul slider in hopes that I don't have to deal with so many fouls, but this year it isn't an issue. I think I like it better this year's way.

Yeah I have no clue how any one got that 2% thing either this is the first time I have heard any body say that lol.

Nice to hear hope you can get it back in. What about not seeing foul balls? last year the camera didn't show a lot of foul balls and this year it is even worse. There are 2 big problems with that. 1. You don't get to see on hard long hit balls just how close the ball is to being a HR or not and 2. You don't really get to see the ball boys and fans catch foul balls as the camera cuts away way to soon way to often. Oh also am I missing something or is there now way to know how fast a pitch is when it is fouled? I only see MPH on pitches that are not contacted.

Well thats great news as I would think most would watch it as its only a minute or so after a long game
