Just like it did pre patch. Which I had no qualms with.

Hit 3 bombs with Sanchez, Judge, and hit Holiday’s 300th....in Boston which was pretty sweet.

Game is awesome. Patch is great except for the sound of the ball off the bat which I believe is simply an unintended consequence of this patch and I believe will be fixed in a future update.

It can’t be intentional. I can’t believe they felt this is what they wanted....dear no. A audio wire got criss-crossed.

The differences between the difficulties from Rookie to Legend was better before the patch 1.04.
Before, the own mistakes for example Veteran are surly OK, i accepted.
And if i feel my play is good, a Homerun was makeable.
Now i play with bunt weapons with player upper than 90 Power and/or Contact.
Often Flyballs are the result or the outfielder too easy catch the Balls, ( Rookie and Veteran )
For MP Online Play i dont know, perhaps ok. But if you play offline, only against the AI, than i look for the fairness.
I search for this problem and find over google the Changelog 1. Post.

I'm about to start the NLCS in my franchise it's a second year carryover where I've played every pitch so I have a lot of time invested. This patch may be okay or maybe not but I'd just like to keep things where they are for now. My question is, is there a way to finish this season without downloading the patch? I think my patches have always downloaded automatically. I was on taking BP against Kershaw this morning and I hope it hasn't already installed.

I had too many HR's for sure as I was averaging a hair over 2 per game prior to the patch but now the hitting feels weaker, more pop outs and when you really get a hold of a pitch it sounds no different then if I were to hit a weak grounder for an easy out.
Yea, that's very noticeable.

All this talk of HR's being an issue for people...you do realize that homeruns are up across the league, this year and last. The trend is shifting, so I have no problem with them at all. Honestly, I'm thankful considering my offense has been abysmal the last few years in my franchise.

Offline, well they need to fix it and I got no idea why they wouldn't have fixed it for offline if they did for online. It's a little ridiculous when the ball is right in front of the catcher but a guy with sub 60 speed takes off and is safe by a mile because the catcher seems to take his sweet time fielding it and throwing it down there.

Becuase you lost a lead in the 8th inning?

I dont mind more HR's at all. But 11 in one game by one team with the sliders toned down...yeah, kind of a problem
 
# 151 forme95 @ 04/25/17 02:46 PM
I had 1.04 download and I also had 1.07 download. Whats in 1.07?

Disregard and remove please. There is no 1.07. I wasnt paying attention and it is a different game. My bad.

The question is: are the devs intentionally trying to replicate increased home run numbers, or are they intentionally trying to replicate typical numbers over the last 5-10 years?

You can't have it both ways, and there's no point in asking people if they realize what you're saying until we confirm what the devs are actually trying to accomplish.

YES! YES! YES!

They finally addressed the issue with starting pitchers getting pulled too early! I can finally start my franchise! Super pumped. Thanks for listening guys!

Seems someone hasn't read the thread.

It's fine to replicate real life but balls were carrying and going distances that are unrealistic. The longest homer this year has been 463 feet. I've hit probably 10 so far that are longer than that.

I apologize for posting in the wrong thread, but for some reason all I'm allowed to do is reply and not to create a new thread.

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.

Few things post patch :

Matte helmets have been added for the teams that changed this year

The bat sound for me hasn't changed.

I have a game going Orioles at Rangers. CPU vs CPU. Default sliders. Chris Davis just hit a home run onto the roof in RF at Globe Life with a distance of 476 ft.

Is the Chipper Jones mission fixed?

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.
Well I wouldn't classify QC as a gimmick, I used it the first year it was introduced and enjoyed it but went back to playing a full game since then.

I can't stress it enough, they need to fix the wild pitch issue coupled with the catcher showing zero interest in actually recovering the ball and gunning down the runner. I've thrown 7 wild pitches in the 14 innings I've pitched post patch which is odd since I threw 11 in the previous 13 games before today. Now my results on the offensive side could be the ebb and flow of a baseball season, time will tell having said that my offense certainly feels neutered all of a sudden and it's hard to ignore that it didn't start until that patch downloaded this morning.

On a side note, is there a way to delete the patch like you can in other games?

Quick counts is not a gimmick at all. It's a FEATURE that allows for a different way to play the game. It's no more a "gimmick" than Manage only mode. It's a very useful feauture that allows some of us with limited time to get in a 9 inning game while getting the feel and stats associated with a regular full count game. Without this I wouldn't play the game nearly as much so I pray they don't ditch this feature in future iterations.
