MLB The Show 18: What Is and Isn't Working With Gameplay

[jeffy777]

Yeah last year I got in the habit of using Quick Manage every time I wanted to sac bunt in franchise. Doesn't help online though.

I'll tell you what doesn't work. Going errorless in a game. Lmao ok I'm exaggerating but I honestly see way too many errors especially from players that shouldn't be making errors.

What doesn't work for me is in franchise mode, when I'm in control of an Outfielder and I'm holding the left stick to run towards the baseball, my fielder PAUSES most of the time. My OF is running towards the ball and for some reason he just start walking slowing and then, if I'm lucky, he starts to run again.

This happens on fly balls, balls over my outfielder's head and ground balls to the gap. Very frustrating.

This happens when I get a ground ball to first and the first baseman fields it. He starts towards the base. It then slowly jogs/walks like diagonally opposite from it. I've tried four different controllers so it's not my controller either.

I’m baffled by the different experiences going on, and like CujoMatty said above, I hope they don’t change anything. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've played 4 whole games and the CPU has attempted 2 against me. Just 2 minutes ago, it attempted one in the bottom of the 9th with 1 out and down by 1.

I dont know whats going on.

Out of curiosity, who attempted the bunt?

Just curious as to see if maybe this year the CPU is only attempting suicide squeezes with players with higher bunt ratings.
