Issues with Analog fielding?

[TheFlamingWeazel]

Absolutely love the game, but I am having one issue, I keep getting bad throws and errors with analog fielding. I always use analog and never had an issue on ps3, is it due to the DS4 being more precise? Is anyone else finding this difference? I might have to go back to button fielding for now, maybe there will be a patch.

Errors are normal, and I like realism, but I am having real difficulty in MLb 14 on ps4, seems I am getting 4-5 errors a game and more errant throws to the cut-off man,.

I'm having the same issue. I was playing some guy online last night and had 3 overthrows in a row on the same play. Luckily the guy I was playing had no idea how to run the bases and he got caught with his pants down between 2nd and 3rd. I even lowered throwing difficulty to Veteran and still no luck.

yes more precise as discussed in the impressions thread. Lower difficulty until you become more familiar. I gave up and went back to buttons

I had to reduce the difficulty from Veteran to Rookie, seems to have helped with the overthrows. I couldn't get a successful throw with it at the higher difficulty.

Yeah, I'm going to have to put the training wheels back on for my favorite fielding mode for sure. I committed 5 throwing errors in my first game at AllStar fielding difficulty (with around 100 people watching on twitch, no less )

Veteran seems a lot more manageable right now. It's just the different feel of the PS4's analog sticks that makes it different.

I had to lower my difficulty as well b/c of the amount of errors, it's not bad at all anymore.

Same for me. I played the PS3 version using my DS4 with zero issues, though.

I use analog for fielding and I noticed back in mlb12 I would have a lot of throwing errors, but I figured out if you turn off the fielding meter it help eliminate the throwing errors, I believe with it off it basically just relies on the fielder throwing attributes. so far I have had no errors on throws and it looks better not having a throwing meter on the screen.
