Hey bcruise, do you notice that the computer defense is faster and more quicker than the guys you control? Or am I seeing things?
Not to the point where I could eyeball it from just my first game post-patch. I don't think I could tell even if I was trying to test it out anyway - which is why I prefer to not mess with those sliders at all. I'm just playing on defaults for now, starting out post-patch.

Just had this happen too - this is the kind of play that everybody hates, but this is pure user error - that is, me throwing to the wrong base.






Just look how the runner is barely out of the box when Dominguez is coming up to the throw ready position and how the animation moves him in a perfect position to throw to 1st. Then, because I decide to go to second (2 outs, btw) instead he has to take the time to go into an entirely different throw animation and makes the play much closer than it should be (still go the out, though).

This is why I really believe that user error (either through bad throwing decisions or late preloads) is the #1 cause of people's complaints with the fielding. Simply put: The Show's engine doesn't like it when I play bad baseball.
