With only 1 programmer assigned to franchise and all the "stuff" they have added the programmer is overwhelmed. They need to cease adding gimmicks and focus on the core game. A great example is quick counts. People are upset because quick counts doesn't seem realistic. There is no such thing as quick counts IRL but people expect it to be realistic and the programmer has to spend time fixing something which prevents the programmer from working on the core game. Runners advancing on wild pitches Balls curving exaggeratedly foul Overpowered infielders That would be a good start but I'd be very surprised if it gets fixed.

Your repeated posting about QC and QM being "gimmicks" that take away focus from the "core game" is getting tiresome. I could just as easily post about how spending time on fixing issues seen in MOM is wasted time as it's just a CPU simulation that barely anyone plays. I could post about how development time should be spent on actual controller-in-hand gameplay, not OOTP-lite visual simulations. By the way, what's the difference between QM and MOM? Practically nothing, except in MOM you actually watch the gameplay.

But I'm not making that post because it's needlessly argumentative and inaccurate. All of it is "core gameplay," and if there is an issue with the game, the developers will hopefully do their best to fix it. I don't mean to play Internet police, but I wish you'd apply the same logic to your posting.

Why so many people seem to downplay issues like this? These are major issues for some people that affect realism and immersion. But I guess it is okay to call people spoiled crybabies on this board because they paid 60 plus dollars for a game to find out there are some issues?

Man there are corporate clowns on this board it seems.

I don't know what it is but I have some issues as well. I really love the game but this feels like a beta of 18 to me. Which is not bad as sports games always go in cycles, but still....

Quick counts was a big mistake - just another gimmick which people expect to play realistically when the basic concept itself isn't realistic - and the programmer has to spend time trying to figure out how to patch it. New features were quick manage and critical situations which are only for sim users. I play offline franchise manage mode full counts which is the basic game and I don't even bother with bug reports any more because I think the programmer is too overwhelmed with other stuff to get around to fixing the basic game.

Honestly, this is why I prefer two year cycles for sports games. No sports game on the planet seem to release without massive problems in this one year cycle BS. Every single one of the main 4 has these issues every single damn year.

Here's my issue: I am seeing absolutely zero injuries in franchise mode, and I cannot find where I might have switched injuries off. The only injury toggle I can find is manual/auto for roster management regarding injured players. I'm sure I'm missing something very obvious, but I can't find it. Thanks for any help.

Do you have CPU roster control on? Because that will stop any injuries from happening

Please wake me when a MLB player hits a bomb over 600+ ft this year..

Reading the comments I see that some of my concerns haven't been addressed as of yet. There will no doubt be more patches so I won't overreact. Tomba is being slammed pretty hard for his comments but I actually think his concerns are a testimony of how great this game really is. The bar is so high for this game because of its realism that things like colors being off really are a disappointment for some. Think about that... When that is what affects your ability to enjoy the game, the game itself must be pretty amazing. If the colors are correct everywhere else he just wants them corrected in those areas as well. That whole Tigers jersey thing wasn't a big deal to everyone but they fixed that. Not trying to speak for him but that's how I interpreted his comments not just that he was being a crybaby.
