Do we finally get a one-pitch mode or generated count option this year?

[ParisB]

(1) If there is any way to check if the pitcher confidence has been tweaked to be less fickle and more realistic. Nothing is more frustrating than facing Robot Cy Young from their #5 guy after one bad first or second inning where you K or go down in order. All downhill from there. Similarly the opposite effect for the User. Unrealistic to see Verlander crumble and unravel after a mistake pitch to Macier Izturis leads to an inning where the CPU doesn't let off until it scores 3 runs.

(2) Any improvements to balls hit (physics?) In the gaps? It felt like the field was too small and balls would be run down by the CPU too easily; where they casually would run down a gapper that stayed in air too long, or perfectly play the bounces making it hard to hit doubles or triples. CPU outfielders feel to smooth.

Thanks!

Is the trampoline ball bounce off home plate on foul balls gone?

Can we Fast Forward per batter now instead of by 1/2 inning.

- Can we do in-game save and resume fully? ... meaning no confidence reset, no lost game log, no lost replays, etc.

- Is swing timing faster especially with the Analog interface?

- Is CPU smarter in handling relievers and player substitutions late in the game?

- In that sportscast-type game screen (see the post by nemesis04 below), is the game engine the one used for simming or one used in the regular gameplay?

More to come...

Judging by that screen we saw in the reveal trailer, it looks like you can do this as everything plays out in front of you in a Game-cast type view.

OMG....did they finally get tired of me(and others) complaining about the CPU replacing my pitchers in the fast sim to inning?
