So far I am really happy with the show, however I am not the most learned of Baseball fans so may overlook some of these issues others raise...
Funny, I was a fanatic for this game from 08 through 13 and then just didn't like it anymore. I'd buy it every year and didn't like it. This year, I think it's great and haven't seen these issues either

Every TV that does HDR requires the backlight to be maxed.

HDR doesn't adjust resolution BTW.

I have a KS8000 65" and the back-light is at 20. What I am saying is the slider is/was of no use, and IMO a gimmick for those who have 8 bit TV's to produce an artificial HDR. i.e. the KU6300 series Samsung.

HDR is running fine when I play the game and looks beautiful.

The slider was only active when HDR was on. For HDR to be on, the TV is capable of HDR. The slider worked as intended, allowing to adjust it for HDR TVs that can't quite reach 1,000 nits.

It wasn't a gimmick.

As you know I'm using your sliders which has the user pitch sliders lowered so I'm sure that's part of it, I can't count the amount of times I've seen a slider down and away end up through the opposite batters box and all the way to the backstop.



As for throwing runners out who try and advance, I've never once thrown anyone out trying to take second but I have thrown out a couple that were trying to advance to third off of a wild pitch.


Getting same results as A&S.

Anyone getting defensive music playing? I tried turning it off at the front end and in the game but it keeps playing when on defense. How do I disable it? it is driving me crazy. One of the songs is "make some noise?" I can't even find the song in the music library.

I'm not sure if it was from this patch or the one before but Online Franchise is broken when you try to upload the OSFM roster or full hybrid with minor leagues, they all have Chase Headleys face just different colors. Is there any way around this? Wish this would be fixed...

Does anyone else think the red colours in the game are off /wrong ? Cards, Reds, Ana red jerseys... Jays red jerseys.... they're so muted and desaturated and more like a dark red than bright, saturated red as they are in real life

That's exactly what mine does too. Turning HDR on just makes the screen brighter and doesn't make it look better by any means at all. I have a Samsung JS8500 which is HDR10 capable but the picture looks so much better with HDR off. What am I doing wrong?

Pretty much all of the solid-color jerseys are this way, regardless of color. The A's alternate greens as well as golds are, like you said, muted and desaturated. I have also seen this with the Twins' alternate jerseys. Not sure what changed since '16 but the problem is pretty widespread.

The rtts bug that sees the game glitching out when entering practice sessions still exists

One looks correct: MIN reds

They look awesome

This is a huge complaint from OS. The difference from the underarmour type shirts under the unis vs the unis themselves is a huge difference. Drives me nuts

The Boston Redsox red jerseys are way off. I'm to the point I don't even use them unless it's a bright sunny day and they look a little more correct. In games with clouds or games at night, it's an eyesore because the undershirt is a bright red and makes it that much more noticeable.

The Indians dark jerseys are off as well. Too light and under saturated. In real life they are such a deep blue that they can be mistaken for black sometimes in photographs.

Yeah, at this point I don't even bother using the Angels red unis unless it's a 12/1 game start time, then they look slightly better, but still need a ton of work.

- pitch speed seems a notch slower again.

I have only played one game since the patch but I gave up 3 homeruns to the Mariners using the same sliders I had before. I also hit one homerun myself and another off the wall.

Got 4 games in last night and I'm not noticing this at all. That said I'm not playing at legend difficulty either.

Also have not seen a return of the SP problem that was prevalent pre 1.05.

Lets be real now, 99/100 people couldnt give a **** if the colours are slightly off. The game looks great, this is clutching at straws at epic levels

Sorry if that upsets you, but I'm pretty sure there's a lot of people here who are irked by the fact that the colors are off for many teams unis, especially when they were fairly acceptable in previous games. They look the worst at night, and I think that's where most people have their gripes. Yeah, the game plays great and looks exceptional otherwise, so why not start honing in on other issues?

Because there are still a lot of server issues and online issues. It gets old real quick and frustrating when guys are complaining about colors not being right while others can't even get through a full game due to connection issues or freezing.

And that's one of the issues to keep focusing on. There's multiple things that can be worked/focused on. I personally don't play online, so it's of no consequence to me, but I wouldn't want it to be ignored regardless, so I don't see why we can't have this discussion about uniforms. Not everyone has the same gripes with the game.

Edit: Furthermore, just because we're discussing one issue, doesn't mean others will be pushed to the side. SDS knows the online is subpar, and they've been doing all they can to fix it, or at least it seems. We can discuss what needs to be fixed with the game wholly, without people getting pissy that some of us have gripes that others don't, and vice-versa.
