Too many ground rule doubles???

I haven't had the game long so I'm asking those who have played it alot more than me. But I've played idk how many games, maybe like 5 or 6. Anyways, every game I see at least one, sometimes 2-3 ground rule doubles. That just seems too high to me. Prevents runs being scored and possible triples even. Is this occuring for everyone? Not a game killer, but it def needs to be patched somehow imo

Not sure about the PS3 version as I haven't played it much but it does seem the ball bounces awfully high on the Vita version off high fly balls.

That's crazy lol. I swear I see at least one every game, and have seen two in a game I think twice now in only 6 games played.

I also feel the same thing. I think the issue only appears when the ball hits the ground very hard (like all these choppers in foul territory and a deep fly ball that comes down and hits the ground at high speed). The ground/grass should absorb a lot more energy off that type of ball since it acts as a cushion, more effective as the impact is harder. Maybe that part of true physics isn't replicated well.

Re: Too many ground rule doubles???

I just had one too, but this has been my first in dozens of games I've played.

Maybe it has to do with the stadium you play in and/or the fielders speed? Cause a high pop fly in the OF will obviously bounce since it has lots of speed on it from coming down from the high distance it was hit. Or if you're playing in a stadium with a wall that's low(such as fenway), the ball will easily bounce over depending on the way you hit(hitting opposite end/late swing if you're right handed batter)

I've played more than that and have yet to see one. But I have seen a Triple Play and an ITPHR.

Luck of the draw. I saw a thread about a guy not seeing any foul outs and i have 2-3 of those a game at least.
