Today, 09:15 AM

(All of these changes are for the PS3 and PS4)

1.Offline/Online - Fixed the issue causing runners to be left on base after a home run. This would happen any time a user runner went half way and was stopped when the ball went over the fence and was a called a HR
2.Offline/Online - CPU or User would attempt to advance after a high infield fly ball was caught. Defender would use a casual throw to the next base, but it would be too slow and the runner would often be safe
3.Intentional walk exploit fixed – Calling for an intentional walk after the baserunner leads off causes the baserunner to take additional steps and getting thrown out easily.

All sound promising. Especially like #5. So tired of having to go all the way through all the teams if I'm focused on the astros or something not close to the start lol

Re: May 13 update
 

So does #14 mean that there is no more pitcher view while hitting? If so, it looks like I may be able to use Dallas Keuchel again, as it is very easy to see his grip from that camera angle.

3.Intentional walk exploit fixed – Calling for an intentional walk after the baserunner leads off causes the baserunner to take additional steps and getting thrown out easily.
9.Online – When defensive shifts would occur in an online game, the OSD’s were inaccurate. Fix for Defensive Positioning drop down to reflect the current defense.
10.Online/Offline - Reduce the success rate of bunts
14.Online - Restricting batting views for online games per Design - if user has batting view that is restricted, force batting view to catcher - don't give user restricted views for batting view
15.Online - issues with take it yourself plays at first base online have been resolved.

These sound great and will hopefully help eliminate some of the cheese. Hopefully bunts have been nerfed again and will finally reach a realistic level.

20.Online/Offline – AI check that was not allowing for early moving catches
I have no idea what this means to the end user, but if it means outfielders will commit less errors I'm all ears.

Re: May 13 update
 

This one might be up there as one of the most important fixes. Sounds like they were finally able to identify and fix some crash/freeze issues:

Re: May 13 update
 

Adding a minute to the pause timer is Bs of you need 6 minutes you're playing the game wrong

Re: May 13 update
 

My thoughts exactly.

Re: May 13 update
 

Should have been "Added a minute added when game extended past 9 innings"

Maybe 1 minute per 3 innings into extras.

This just means that salty losers will now get to waste another minute of our lives when they pause with 2 outs in the 9th until they forfeit or try to bait you into a friendly by hitting friendly right as time expires. Be aware of this, I've had it tried a few times on me. Don't hammer square when time is running near zero.
