Someone else will have to answer for me unless I can find the thread from last year it was discussed in.

But the "by design" was in game should reflect the actual pitch count for fatigue purposes but the post game box score replicated the additional pitch.

And again though, I'm sorry if I'm misremembering that scenario.

There are ton's of factors involved. But like you I have not seen anything wonky in full count games
This was just a play now game so the the bullpens fatigue wouldn't come into play here

This patch really is a step backwards IMO. The issues I've noticed so far:

- Definite frame rate drops compared to pre-patch on PS4 Pro (on all modes; 4k, some improvements, and high frame rate). 4K has always sucked with this year's game, but high frame rate is now stuttery too. I'm gaming in HDR too FWIW.
- Numerous RTTS presentation bugs which I didn't notice before: Division standings wrong during presentation, described as NL West but showed NL East standings, etc.
- Batted ball sound (obviously wrong now)
- Incorrect manager fielding requests.....SS told to cover 3B Drag, etc.

The big issue for me is the framerate. It is super annoying that now even the high frame rate option is stuttery. Just unacceptable, and it's noticeably different than before the patch.

This happened to me pre-patch, too...in Franchise, the audio would say, "Let's take a look at the NL Central standings..."

And the AL East would be shown.

Ah okay, good to know! So I suppose the main change for me is the frame rate hiccups. I'm normally not sensitive to frame rate issues, but it's actually quite noticeable, at least on PS4 Pro / HDR. Kind of frustrating as this game is brilliant in so many ways, but then some of the bugs really do hamper the experience.

Yep. Still there. But I have only seen it in a carryover file. In my brand new 2017 franchise (playing as the Yankees) I have yet to see this bug.

Is it isolated only to N.L Central teams? Because that is what I use in my carry over file that I see this bug.

No..... I see this in my RTTS frequently and it's random. Saw this happen last night. I play for Braves in NL East and I've seen it show standings for AL east, NL Central, etc. It will also be correct sometimes and display correct division. Seems to be completely random.

Off the next 3 days. Going to play the crap out of this game and see what's what.

No its acroos the board. I play as the Rangers and they will say lets take a look at how the West is shaking up and it displays the East. The little commentary errors are annoying but if they can just fix the major issues Im good. I had a mound visit in the 8th and the commentary said I bet the manager doesn't want to go to the bullpen this early. Or at the beginning of the game when they are analyzing your lineup they said Im worried about Beltre and his lack of production. This has to be a concern for this team. Mid May 3rd in the league in AVG and had 45 RBI's.Allot of things that just make you scratch your head and say really. Why are we the ones who found this and not the developers? Did they test the product? Did they Test the Patch? One good thing after the patch I noticed was the Rangers now have the Matte Helmets they are supposed to have

Is that a new franchise from this year? because in my Jays one I've yet to see that, it's always shown the AL east for me

SP's would get pulled in situations that did not make sense and it was too early. It was too consistent

Catchers struggle with balls in the dirt that resulted in extra bases too often. It's not fixed

People gripes about HRs and this is one area that might have been fixed.

The HR issue was one I could live with. The other two I need I have resolved

Ok good feedback. I know the development team reads this thread for feedback. Because most of the time it is constructive and effective.

I am not making excuses, however knowing the size of SDS and how ambitious this game was, I think they were over taxed and I am confident they will get everything right. They always do. I realize the frustration is real and warranted.

But as long as we keep the conversation civil and mature and effective like we are in here.....things will be put into action for legitimate issues. And if it can be fixed it will.

This game is their life and their passion. The love oozes out of the game for me every year. These guys live and breath baseball. It is quite obvious to me at least.

I'm with you. I love the game and have no doubt they will fix the issues. However when a major patch comes out and the same problems are happening that were supposedly patched and now another pops up with the sound of the bat it makes you wonder. Who is testing this stuff? I know they have a great and interactive staff but it literally takes us a few hours to see the major problems. Am I just being stupid when I say, Why wasn't this noticed or caught by the team prior to release? Did they test the patch before they released it? If they did why do the same problems exist?

My Franchise is a new, non-carry over. It has the "wrong division standings" issue.

my question/concern...i don't use Quick counts, playing a franchise game last night post patch and the phillies pulled their starter after 4 innings with only 71 pitches and a 1-0 lead... didn't have that problem pre patch...Armor, do your sliders need to get re-adjusted because of this patch?
