MLB The Show 17 Patch 1.04 Available Now, Patch Notes Included

[loganmorrison1]

This is concerning, SCEA is usually great with their patches, this sounds like a disaster. My biggest gripe was the passed balls. I was actually playing last night and had 3 in 1 inning, I shut the game off thinking that the patch would fix the issue, but doesn't sound like that's the case

Something is very wrong here.

This is why Patches can be bad too. I heard zero issues with the ball off the bat pre-patch and post patch every single it sounds like a weak contact broken bat hit.

This will have to be patched on the next one. It's off, it's wrong and not right.

This is an example of unintentional consequences of a patch. I can’t even imagine this was intentional. But they had to have heard this right? I mean in testing before you release this you had to have hear hit after hit after hit.

Please fix this. It’s a huge mistake.

There was nothing wrong with it pre patch. And this is what causes them to go in and fix something that was not broken to begin with and now we have this.

I don’t understand why it was changed to this.

A long list is created about what is "wrong" with the game and then a patch drops and it can easily swing things a touch further in the opposite direction. Then the people who were OK with the game become disappointed/unhappy. Guess I'll find out when I get off work in about 3 hours.

I just smoked Boston 7-2. Hitting is not an issue.

It is simply an audio issue.

Honestly, I have to think this is a result of nerfing the power. Maybe they changed the default level of solid hits, so now everything sounds like a weaker hit than it did before? The ball certainly seems to be coming off weaker as well but that might be just perception because of the sound? But I'm feeling a real lack of clean contact

15 games played pre patch and didn't​ see the problem. I don't use QC, maybe the problem is with QC.

Couldn't agree more. Posted similar response just before you did. I LOVED the game presentation exactly the way that it was. I could see an issue with Homeruns being a touch too frequent or distance too long....but it wasn't enough to even bother me.
