HMM.. I missed that. Not sure what happened there!

I'm pretty sure it's the result pitch that is being subtracted.
So the first one(count) is a freebee so to say.
5 pitches....3-2 count.....ground ball....six(not counted...)
Batter comes up with a 2-1 counts(3 pitches)....pitch count is 5(first count) plus 3(second count) for 8!

At first Ramone said it was 1 per and 2 for 3-2...but I think he then corrected it later in this thread when he quoted the guide...here...saying it's 1 per AB..

As a rough guideline, if a game would have had 145 pitches thrown without Quick Counts, then with Quick Counts on that would translate to about 75 pitches 'actually thrown' plus an additional 115 'simulated pitches' for a total of 190 pitches. As a compromise for realism, the game corrects for this inflated number by subtracting 1 pitch per plate appearance, so that a pitcher's individual pitch count will be more comparable to a regular game. 'Simulated pitches' drain less energy to balance out fatigue loss.

I am so freaking excited for this game on the PS4.

Love the quick count feature, will be used from start to finish in my franchise mode.

3-2(5)
Ground out(no pitch)
Still 5
2-1 count(8)
1 pitch strike(9)
1 pitch ball(10)
1 pitch strike(OUT resulting pitch...not counted)
Still 10
3-2 count to Holliday
15


I think that's right.

Its a bit weird if that is how its handled since on the ball hit by Pedroia the pitch count went up one pitch just as he hit it. So they add it in, then take it away. Seems like an odd way to handle that. I wonder if there is a bit more to how it takes away pitches that we don't know. I'm sure someone will dig into QC's as soon as the game is out and post their test results.

The music has been the same for too many years and presentation looks still largely the same.. gameplay will be great though but disappointed presentation looks as stale as ever.

Really hoping PS4 version will be a lot different in this area but I am not counting on it not for 14 anyway.
