I'm no longer seeing stuttering during pitches, but I'm seeing it almost everywhere else. Is anyone else having this problem?

On the CPU defensive bug in Manager Mode...

Not saying this would hold up in court, but was wondering if we draw any conclusions from this in regard to the Manager Mode bug?

Either way, add me to the list of people that are happily surprised with the developers level of commitment to this product and its customers by speedily resolving issues as they become known. I certainly don't expect perfection, but it's nice when a company surprises me on the upside. Obviously they take a lot of pride in doing their jobs and doing them well.

Not to be picky or anything but just wanted to mention a little bug I just saw with autobaserunning.

Im the Mets with men on 1st and 2nd. (Ike Davis on 2nd FWIW) vs the braves in postseason mode with autobaserunning on. My batter gets struck out strike 3. Ike davis for some unknown reason decides to steal 3rd base. The man on first stays at first. The CPU catcher holds the ball and does not throw to 3rd or 2nd. Play gets ruled an error E2. Just throwing this out there in hopes they can maybe check it real quick since this sounds like the last patch.

My sliders are:
Fielder arm strength 4
Baserunner speed 4
Steal ability 6
Steal frequency 3

Im happy that the MOM guys will get that ugly bug fixed!

Was the pitch in the dirt handled by the catcher cleanly? I've seen this happen. The pitch was in the dirt, the catcher handles it cleanly... I don't remember if it was a strikeout or ball-four (I've saved the replay... I've been compiling the archive or incorrectly tagged errrors haha), but the catcher was tagged with an error when the runner advances one base. What was weird was that the catcher never attempted to make a throw.

I didn't save replay but I believe it was in the dirt. Just as big a question I have is why is Ike Davis stealing 3rd with those slider settings!

My guess is this is a glitch. Davis probably took off thinking the ball got away from the catcher. But the catcher somehow doesn't seem to be aware of the situation, and just holds onto the ball and doesn't throw to the base. The game (perhaps incorrectly) gives an error to the catcher, because a runner advanced.

(Perhaps this might even be related to an old bug that improperly tagged the catcher with an error on ball-four in the dirt.... who knows.... there's still a few funky logic flaws in this kinda situation.)


Personally I think good base stealers try stealing 3B a bit too often, but that's probably a digression... I'm not sure if Davis was attempting a straight steal or just took off seeing the pitches in the dirt.
