Frustration!!!!!!(bad words)!!!

[Th3Rush22]

Ive been playin this game for just 2 days now as I have been playing a ton of skyrim, but I always loved this game so I started playing it. It is a great game other than when I am trying to field the ball and something stupid happens to cost me the game. I had Andrew mccutchen and was sucked into an animation that let the ball bounce 5 times. The catcher got a triple.! Then I haven't been able to turn a double play yet because I throw it to 2nd base he acts like it's the third out. And I throw it to the cut off and even though I start to throw before he gets the ball it takes him 5 seconds to throw the ball. It makes me just want to sim every game.

Okay well, that's something for sure.

I have seen this and not only one time. I saw this quite often and I saw this at 2k11 as well.

Heh, that's why I choose to avoid all the frustration that MLB 2K can be by only hitting, and never pitching or fielding.

This comment- And I throw it to the cut off and even though I start to throw before he gets the ball it takes him 5 seconds to throw the ball.

I don't have 2k12 yet but wasn't there something mentioned about not preloading throws to soon due to the new fielding throw meter?

I have noticed a bunch of herky jerky animations from outfielders. Each out never really seems smooth lol.

Happens on both occasions. Happens with preloading and happens with not preloading. But to be honest: I saw the AI doing this the same way. I was able to "steal" quite some bases and runs paying attention to the throwing motions.
