Felt the same to me, honestly. Aside from the abnormalities guys are mentioning (slowdown of OF on ground balls) I feel the demo is a solid representation of what we experience in the build we played.

Animations kicked in when the ball was in the air and that's how I know I am "in position" to make a catch.

Personally, it doesn't bother me.

I was speaking of the "slowdown" that happens on certain plays.
It's not the catch animation.
I had it happen a couple of times and it's strange....like all of a sudden he's running in mud.....and I either miss the ball(not getting to the zone...or he makes a catch.
I just don't remember it at the event...
I don't know if it's because I didn't play enough to see it.

Then I go to my Download Management section and there are three different versions of the demo trying to be DL'd and none of them are working. LOL, I am ********.

I actually got three downloads myself!
I thought that was wierd.
Anyway..when you get to that screen that asks if you want it to download in the background...there should be a % bar...
You should be downloading then...it could be slow though.

No, wasn't in the build we played. It's in the demo.

I'm not worried about it. Wasn't an issue for us.

I know what your talking about. Its not goign to be in the finished product on in the demo since its a month old chew toy of the developers. I had victorino running for a ball i nthe left center gap and he caught it on the trakc next play i threw it right down the middle to see what would happen and upton hit it to the right center gap when i had victorino he ran like he got tired stared joggign and a MAYBE double turned into a triple. No worries for me it will be fixed

I tried the demo this weekend & its pretty solid just like it has been every year. I didnt get tons of singles in the 2 times I played like I was able to in previous years. Lighting is extremely nice as are the graphics. The crowd noise is really good. The team did a really good job on it.

I know what the real rule is, but in this game I know there are tall players with crouched stances that make their stances reach their letters, which is the same as a tall player with a high stance, reaching his belly button (which I much prefer).

Are you guys tryign to figure out how to change it or are you just talking bout how the developers decide?

I dont think it really matters. Just hold R2 for a sec to see the strike zone if you have it off. I dont ean to be preaching to the choir
