Going to date myself here, but this is the first computer baseball I played (the first Intellivision console from 1980) and it was a lot of fun to play back in those days.

Not sure what I did wrong, but I guess.

Go figure.
That is one fix/option I would like to see. I have been playing mostly DD offline so far, and have noticed the stripped down presentation I normally would see with The Show Live mode.

I started with Baseball on the Atari 2600. It was terrible. Intellivision baseball was a masterwork compared to it.

Does my current Franchise need to be re-started for this patch to take effect? Trade logic fix etc...

If I could make one recommendation for future patch consideration, could we please get sticky menus while browsing card collections in Diamond Dynasty? It takes up a lot of time browsing through teams deeper in the list and having the menu reset to the Orioles every time. Thanks!
Yes, this definitely!

This is not confirmed by SCEA SD.

But I am very very confident you do not need to re-start.

Maybe Ramone can chime in here and confirm that so we can include that fact on the OP and not have this question pop up every page of the thread.

Thanks man. I read the entire thread and saw it had been asked a few times, but not answered. I just figured I'd give it a shot, and see if I was special.

Absolutely dumbfounded that stealing wasnt patched or nerfed a bit at all. Extremely disappointed.
 
# 152 Jaystar8083 @ 04/23/15 03:29 PM
Does anyone else feel like the framerate between pitcher and batter felt or looked better in MLB 14? Not sure if my eyes are deceiving but it feels less smooth in 15.
 
# 153 BigDaddyRev @ 04/23/15 03:30 PM
I don't know if anyone else has had this problem but about 25% of the time, for a second baseman in RTTS my player gets "frozen" and cant move into double play position. Its not a huge deal but it effects training points in that I cant get to second base in time for a double play or to tag out a man stealing. Is there any way that can be looked at ? Sorry if this isn't the correct place to post this

Absolutely man. I am hoping Russell SCEA reads that so it can get answered for everyone.

Does this affect Franchises already started? Or will my Mccutchen remain with long hair?
 
# 156 aukevin @ 04/23/15 03:34 PM
For this:
Year to Year Saves modifications – Properly handling a small batch of players who were not in the league in MLB 14, and how they transfer over to MLB 15.

I'm guessing I'll have to start over and import from 14 again to get those players back in my RTTS? Or in my '15 RTTS where Kris Medlen became Robbie Bullinger, will Bullinger magically become Kris Medlen again after I apply the patch?

When I play a game of The Show I want to take in everything -- the sights, the sounds, the atmosphere -- and am in no hurry to skip through anything. If I'm honest, that's one of my main motivations for playing this game -- to take in a tv-style of baseball whenever I want. Perhaps a fully unfiltered Broadcast Mode could be a consideration for us un-rushed types somewhere down the road.
I agree. An option would be nice. There are moments in a game where you really want the full experience. If not, you can always button mash through it.

what i can't get past is that you and your team added AWESOME new additions / kept cool existing scenes in between pitches / innings that contradict achieving a goal of having the game finish faster:

1. split screen pitcher/batter
2. dirtcam view
3. broken bat, getting a new one
4. ball boy returning to seat
5. pitcher taking off hat to wipe sweat / gather himself
6. showing emotion of pitcher questioning ball that should have been a strike (i.e. lifting hands like "are you kidding me")
7. home run replay from previous inning(s); hr/xtra base hit in between innings
8. mascot hyping up the crowd
9. show motion replay
etc.. could go on forever mentioning cool things

I'm loving all the stuff above, adding to the authenticity of the game. Not showing foul balls going into the stands more often like it used to, interrupting the throw back to the pitcher from the catcher, etc...seems to take a bit of the essence of baseball away. my biggest fear is that eventually too much baseball will get removed from the game in favor of finishing the game faster...that's why you added fast play, in game saves, usage of x button...it's not like you're forcing everyone to watch everything like some FPS, other genres.

love the game, love the SCEA team's accomplishments.
just my 2 cents.
Well said.

Wish they would've fixed the non out call on a failed bunt attempt with 2 strikes. Eric young Jr just attempted a 2 strike bunt, fouled it, didn't get called out, and next pitch bases clearing triple. It was the 8th with man on 1 and 2, so a bunt would've made sense before someone says bunting with 2 strikes isn't realistic
