Re: Patch 1.09 is Live

did they actually update the coors field jumbotron? i could have sworn that in one of the streams they said that is something that they cant add in patch.

Ill be interested to see the fielding improvements over the next few games. Its been a gripe of mine this year. Hopefully fielders not picking up the ball has been fixed completely this time.

Re: Patch 1.09 is Live

on the face of it, that's pretty underwhelming.

Bullit...any impressions?

Curious to hear about the logic adjustment for the urgency of infielders on DP situations. I'm hoping they don't become "automatic".

Just played a full game in my franchise. Game play seems smooth. I did see a runner get thrown out that would not have been before. Overall I am happy. Obviously a very small sample but I did not see anything that would lead me to anticipate a problem.

Version 1.09

Gameplay improvements and Stabilizations:


Logic adjustments to increase the urgency of fielding in the infield. Specifically for DP situations and when faster runners are batting.

Probably my biggest issue with the game but just the infield? The outfield suffers pretty bad as well on doubles that should be singles as they just nonchalantly throw the ball back in.

1 out of 2 ain't bad I guess.

I have always been curious as to why that ridiculous eephus throw to 1st animation is even in the game? Hopefully they've finally cut it out as an animation

Re: Patch 1.09 is Live

Based on only one game, it's probably best to just completely avoid sacrifice bunts now, unless you are just really desperate for a double play

Fewer hard choppers, dribblers, and popups in online and local two-player games.

What? So the game has different engines based on different modes?

Re: Patch 1.09 is Live

Hopefully this urgency fix will stop every groundout being a bang bang play no matter what the runner’s speed is. Nothing more annoying than seeing your second baseman triple pump before a 20 foot throw to first and a 17 speed catcher almost leg it out

it's because the first baseman or whoever is supposed to be covering the bag isn't there. So instead of holding the ball, they hold it then lob it.

online or offline? Because despite the rocket bunts, I've never had the AI throw to second to get the lead runner. They go to first every time, which I'm fine with.
