That's one thing I noticed right away this year, the game actually good right out of the box with default sliders. Most sports games, it's a couple weeks of slider testing before it plays well, but default is pretty good this year.

Mine are sliders from OS with dynamic difficulty.

Do I occasionally hit X, sure, but as a lover of the game I watch the cut scenes. I'm in no rush most of the time. Now, if somebody wants fast play, fine, but to say this is over hyped? We really disagree with this especially if your reasoning is you want to "actually play". This lack of presentation is what made the game SO stale for the last few years.

The problem I have with it is that it's sprinkled around among a bunch of old cut scenes. They are there and they are nice when you actually see them. But it's not as often as it should be to make me feel like I'm playing a new game. It still feels stale. I went back to 17 thinking I'd miss 18 but there isn't much to miss.

Thanks CB, I appreciate the info. I had hopes they had atleast added in more ST'ing ballparks, since last gen had more ST ballparks. Sounds like there has been some nice improvements, just not sure, there is enough there for me to give in a buy it, even though Im sure it plays a great game of baseball. I probably will just wait till next yr and hope forsome more Franchise improvements, or atleats wait till the price drops, or buy it used. Again thanks for the reply.

17 is exactly the same as 18 with a change in camera angles (if you play RTTS) and uniform colors.

No ppl's elbow in 17😣
No batting stance editor in 17 😣
The differences exist but they may not necessarily interest you. And that's alright.
