I know that SCEA is trying to make the game as realistic and close to real life baseball as possible, but it's not realistic to have superman dives every time. In fact it almost is groundbreaking to have the outfield make unreal dives every time to ball is close.

It's ridiculous.

Dude I have see this as well but every time I post about it within another thread people say they are not seeing it. Players will rarely pull up and just field the ball they usually dive for it and either make an amazing catch or just let the ball go by them which allows a triple or several runs to score.

If you are lowering fielder run speed, that may increase dive attempts, just because the ball in play just out of their reach increases.

But yes I'd like to see less dives, especially when the fielder is running back.

Instead of diving, they should also have a better judgement as to whether it's better to dive or let it just drop in order to prevent making a single into a triple. Right now I think it tilts toward diving a bit too often.

I'm not seeing this. I think I've seen 1 diving catch against me in all the games I've played. (8-10). I have yet to make a diving catch myself.

I'm seeing 2 to 3 a game. I love a good diving catch, but this is a bit much.

I see a ton of diving attempts, but it's about 30/70 when it comes to the computer catching it. Typically they miss by a mile and it gets by them for an easy triple.

Neither have I SINCE I first got the game. In the beginning there were tons of them
After setting adjustments/sliders it's not an issue.

I use TKN's sliders and it has calmed down a lot. It still happens but way less often and in a more believable way. Maybe still a little too much.

Out of the box it was unreal almost every fly ball was the most specatcular catch you have ever seen
