Just try to pan the cam while fielding, it's really atrocious. It's not me, nor my tv setting.

Hm, interesting. I haven't really noticed this issue at all.

You either skip cutscenes at an absurd I-should-just-play-fastplay rate or you're just not very sensitive to framerate.

A good 80% of cutscenes are sub-30 fps.

It's a bit sad to not have the ball followed into the stands as often as it did last year for fouls..ok I've began to live with that because at least seeing the whole batter follow-through sequence is kind of cool, but to cut short the throw from the catcher back to pitcher is a bit much...also on strike-outs it seems the next batter walkup has been axed. I just wish the game was slow paced like it used to be...and X could be used to skip if wanted. A+ game, but I do miss the slower "baseball" pace...especially how 99% rock solid the frame rate is this year...i want to behold all it's glory and only use X when i'm in a time crunch.

agree 100% brrmikey

1- I doubt sub 30....
2- He said during gameplay....and I don't care sensitive or not...NO WAY it's anywhere near what he's saying during gameplay.

Something I have finally gotten a good pulse on and feel for.

I had seen some concerns about outfield throws, accuracy issues, etc. Well let me tell you. I throw with button controls no meter. So purely based on player ratings and how long I hold the button down (feel a rumble or tap for an easy throw etc).

Long throws from the outfield are not going to be accurate most of the time....like IRL. Sometimes I will gun a guy down with a highly rated arm....but a weak rated arm will be challenging.

Use your cutoff's and use them often. Plus I tuned down outfield throwing errors to 2 and now I feel the game gives ultra realistic results in rewarding great arms, and punishing you if you attempt stupid long throws from lower rated OF's (even higher rated as the throw is just too long to be spot on)

I think it is slightly overdone at default as well as errors in general. But it can be tweaked with sliders. I feel I got it playing where I like it. And I love the new layer of realism with throwing and not every throw being a dead eye strike to the bases. When you watch a lot of baseball...you see plenty of throws off the mark from the outfield.

Plenty.

I'd say I have games where I skip cut scenes because I'm trying to fit a game in, and other games where I have time to play so I rarely skip them. Probably about a 50/50 split. So, there ya go.

Ok, i don't want to push it too hard and i'm fine if gamers nowdays don't care too much about framerate and optimization. So peace and love, really (). BUT. This game is never on a rock solid 30 fps. Never. It's ok when hitting or pitching but on defense, while fielding, framerate it's really inconsistent and with huge drops. And in the range of 20 fps you'll get some input lag problems, also. What i find strange, nobody give a cent. It's playable, ok. But it really hurts the experience.

I've honestly never noticed any of this.
