I've seen them before too, and at a realistic clip, but I think the overall consensus is that they don't happen enough. Also, this is at default slider settings.

This was the issue I had in 14.

With the ball down the line it was either caught, went foul, or never made it to the wall for user controlled teams. The Outfielder always caught up to it and 9 times out of 10 prevents the double.

On the Wacha bloop single. Those type of hits were rare and when they were hit the ball hung up too long and was either a can of corn or some wild diving catch from out of nowhere.


Now I'm not saying those types of hit don't happen in the Show, because they do, but mainly for the CPU and not the user controlled team. I also agree they don't happen enough and in this stream I saw more in one game than I did in 14 in a 20 game stretch. Could very well be my sliders. I always drop my Power 2 clicks and my solid hits 3 or more clicks.

Exactly. Sliders also really help this when tweaked right. The Show barely needs sliders...but tweaking certain ones can greatly enhance the game for some players.

True as well. I got a great feeling this has been tuned better for 15 and the ball physics look great. The new fielding speed adjustments are also going to play big this year. The streams are showing me a lot of great tuning for this years game.

I agree it looks like they did improve in this area and looking forward to seeing how the sliders play out in 15.

Awesome to hear. Sorry if this has been mentioned previously, but have the frame rates in cutscenes been improved dramatically? It's hard for me to judge just by watching the streams. Thanks.

Nick is good. Likes to talk smack as well. Makes a perfect coop partner for me.
