MLB The Show 20: Game Update 1.05 Notes and Breakdown

[ninertravel]

Best patch so far two way player edit will thus fix the Ohtani bug then where he should already be a 2 way player ?

OSD of stats is looking a whole lot better!

I have no music when I am in the menus now.

Edit: It just started out of nowhere.

Now you can't turn the catch indicator off.

Can anyone tell me using the new Show theme where the pitch speed of a pitch just thrown would be?

I play with switch pitch info off.

I thought this was on there before.

Darn....still doesn't give you a HR or K counter during a franchise game like it does for Doubles or SBs.

Probably goes without saying since it wasn't in the notes, but the April-May prospect shuffle (even with the trade slider zeroed) still happens.

Playing a DD extended play game on Legend (meter pitching) and I do feel like there's more rewarding pitch accuracy when I hit perfect. There's also still plenty of "in the area" inaccuracy when I don't, so this isn't binary levels of hit spot/miss spot badly like PYS which is what I was concerned about. But considering I'm using Maddux, the good inputs feel appropriately rewarding. In the competitive environment which is what this change is going to affect, that's pretty important.

Remains to be seen how the majority of the online community reacts to it though, since the majority use analog there's no way for me to predict that.

Edit: It was brought to my attention that the patch notes say the pitching change was only for head-to-head multiplayer (and not all of DD), so it's entirely possible all that stuff about Maddux above in a game vs. the CPU is confirmation bias. He's very accurate on perfect meter inputs anyway, so he's probably a bad example to use when comparing pre-patch with post-patch.

What counter?

Are you talking about when you strikeout a batter or hit a homerun it tells you how many strikeouts the pitcher has for the game or how many homeruns a hitter has on the year?

If so, that is there, as I've seen both in the game I'm currently playing. (Show Theme)
