The entire point of that option is to only play balls hit to you.

Nevermind guys. Carry on with the regular scheduled programming in the thread. Sorry I brought it up.

I see. You want a new option that is a hybrid between playing every play on defense and only playing the ones you are involved in. I don't know where something like that would fall on a priority list...

Yea I am aware of that.

When they did the little things stream, The pause menue didn't show Pitch Speeds, it just Had innings pitched, Hits, ER , etc.

And also the hitter had the same Today 2 for 2

So I posted in a few threads about it because it was mid season and not being able to see hitters season stats in game or Pitchers speed in game was alarming because it was always there

Yea, sorry I just wasn't explaining myself I think. I understand though, no worries. I do like alot of the new features in RTTS like the auto assigning your attribute points. That's great.

So you want a hybrid option then?

Edit: beaten.

The result play option that was in the game before was perfect.

Not sure why it was taken it out. You could have watched the last pitch of every at bat, so you wouldn't know when the ball was coming your way.

I used to use during key playoff games, and then they removed the option and only left the every pitch option and I highly doubt anyone would use that option.

If you are playing in the OF......and playing with only plays you are involved in....you will still see bombs hit. For example I play RF on my current RTTS in 17....I have had many HR's hit over my direction. So you don't know what kind of hit will be coming at you. I have seen laser beam ground balls and line drives coming at me only to see my 2B snag them.

It is not scripted like you think. It is the best "My player" mode in sports gaming bar none.
