I would like to see one video of a AI issue that wasn't caused by bad user control. I mean it's cool if you don't like something, but to just make up stuff is beyond me.

I highly doubt those two guys are "making stuff up", when there are others as well saying the exact same situations.

These are impressions they are giving. Fundamentals and bugs like in that video are two different things. And that video is smoke and mirrors anyhow, cause it is small sample size, balls did not go through the bat 100% of the time, nor did the balls go through the fielder 100% of the time. You could have showed 2K9 side by side, and one where it was a hit and one where it was a catch, and say "fixed".

I would hope they fixed those glaring bugs, but to have a video on it, seemed silly to me. It should be the obvious. But that is my opinion on that video and I will not dispute it any further.

Anyhow back on course, these are people's impressions, and just because you don't agree with them, doesn't mean they are "making things up".

Just stole every base with rollins including home off joba! His delivery is VERY slow. Stealing on him was soo easy a caveman could do it.

I had three doubles in one inning last night. One in the gap, one over the CF's head, and one down the RF line. The one AI gaffe that I noticed was that when Werth was on second with one out, I hit a scorching one-hopper to Rodriguez at third. I had no idea how to hold Werth so he runs on contact and is headed straight to Rodriguez. Rodriguez had an eternity to just wait for Werth to run into him for the tag, but he never acknowledged him in any way as he went through a normal throw to first and Werth waltzed into third.

I wasn't really even talking about the video really. I was talking about people's failure to acknowledge the improvements.

Let's see, i have seen the video where the guy got pulled of 2nd base, and the guy admitted it was probably his user control. Not to mention, people didn't know about pre-loading throws till yesterday, which cures some of them funky animations. I have seen the guy try to take 3rd on a sharp hit ball to on a video. I haven't had it happen myself while playing. Maybe, that does happen, or that may have just been one of those instances.

I still stand by my statement. I haven't had 1 AI head scratching moment where the out-come of a play was screwed up by bad AI. I just find it hard after all the time i've put into this demo to say the game is anywhere close to being fundementally broken.

Hell, we could start a poll, but who gives crap really. Like you said we all entitled to opinions.

I would think so but I have not seen any myself.


A quick question for anyone, when you hit the cutoff man is there any way to take control of the player making the cut? The cpu takes over once the catch is made and I cannot get control back.
