It's difficult to enjoy franchise when your team's ERA is 2.4 runs/game worse than it was in 2012.

I average 4.4 runs/game but it's nearly impossible to win.

The game looks great once the ball is in play, but other than that its current state is extremely disappointing.

I can't speak for the vita because I play on the PS3.

All I can say, and its only my experience as 1 guy, is that I FF from time to time and haven't experienced this issue.

But, I mostly pitch for myself and FF the hitting. Sounds like you FF the pitching a lot.

I do understand why that era would drive you nuts. Is it in line with your pitching staff? I mean, is your staff really bad?

If not, its definitely something the guys at SCEA could look at, especially if more people experience it.

In this last patch, they fixed the simmed K's which were coming out way too low at the end of the year. Maybe the cpu doesn't sim pitching well and maybe the issues are related. If so, they can probably tune something that can fix it.

I hope those who have the vita version like you will take some time to test it to see if they get the same results.

Since not many people seem to be discussing this, I'd like to mention that online gameplay this year feels very lag free to me. Offline, I feel the best timing point in batting has been pushed back a tiny bit too much for my liking (meaning, you can catch up to 95 mph fastball even if you are actually late on the pitch), but in online games, this effectively acts as lag calibrated timing window. I have no problem pulling fastball online, which was never the case before. But I haven't tried Analog hitting online yet... it remains to be seen how I fare with the interface...

Loving the game. Just wanted to say that for the first time in the Show's history, Im really digging the soundtrack. I may actually use some of the songs for some batter's walk up music.

Is it just me or did they lower the volume on the soundtrack this year?

I agree. Not too low but it is a noticeable. I just turn up my sound bar a few notches higher than normal.

Does anyone know if they fixed the Sounds of the Show volume with the patch?
