Found a pretty distracting graphical glitch that is remaining after the patch happening at the Rangers Ballpark: In some cutscences showing the area covered with the backstop net and the area directely adjacent to it the crowd behind the net looks sharp while the one with no net is blurry. See the photos below.

The home run bug is true I uploaded a video to youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58mY03PgBPQ if you wanna see it, skip to the 12 minute mark

Great patch, but the online franchise not being able to sim "bye" is a huge huge problem. Cannot advance the league because of it. I know this is in another thread somewhere, and the bug report is near the top on shownation, but has there been any other word or acknowledgement from the show people itself?

Yes it definitely was fully downloaded and installed seeing as I've got McCutchen's short hair.

I've not seen the bunt bug at all, but saw the home run bug once pre patch and then again this morning post patch, it weird though because I had a 2 run shot earlier in the same game and another just now that were both fine so it just seems to be completely random

I mean, looking at the labor force participation rate, I would imagine that more people than ever have the time. Just saying.

But it seems that fast play was a good compromise. Why not just incorporate every time saving measure into that option?

I can tell you for me it's a time constraint. I just don't have the time i used to for gaming. I wish that wasn't the case.

Heck Collage football games are like 3.5 hours on average lol. There is nothing you can really do to make baseball faster. The only reason any sports takes a long time is like any thing on TV and that is TV breaks. The only thing that can really make a baseball game faster would be if you didn't have pitchers come in for like 1 battier to face a lefty. Even if you had a few less pitching changes it would still only make a game like 10 minutes shorter.

They've been implementing rules to speed up football on both levels for years. Take a look at all the adjustments to the way the clock operates. Instant replay of course has had a major impact on game time length as well. Also the proliferation of the pass game has countered a lot of the more recent clock changes.

Sometimes I have time to view all the cut scenes. Sometimes I'm trying to squeeze a quick game in so I skip a lot of the cut scenes.

It's great to have options.

Wow that is unfortunate, I haven't seen that yet. The only thing I have seen weird with Home-runs was seeing a CPU hit a 2 run Homer and it being called and an Inside the Park home-run and it caused the players home run trot to be cut short.

These are all things that should have been fixed before release. Not impressed.

then there you have it, 3/4 votes not sure how often it came out and on list of priorities hopefully could be fixed soon

How do you download the patch? I'm new to PS4, and didn't get a pop up indicating that I have a patch to download.
