The only thing I care that got fixed in fielding is the completely unrealistic play where a first baseman catches a liner to first and then tags out the runner that was at first.
-
I want to see more balls drop in for hits in front of the outfielders. Too many times I hit a ball that I swear will drop in for a hit just to see the outfielder make a routine jogging in catch on it.
And there was no way they were playing shallow enough to get to it, but they miraculously morph in so to speak to make the grab.

It literally happens a couple times a year like that in real life, but happens all the time in the game. And that clip isn't even what I was referencing. In the game, the first basemen plays on the same plane as the runner (ie in the basepath), where in virtually all cases the 1B in rl either moves in or back on the pitch (because a collision would be interference and give the runner 2nd).

Let’s not ignore the fact this is 2021 and there is still no collision detection in this game.
-
Did we at least eliminate the Casual Trot that turns into a Rocket us the [censored] at the last second?
-
How about auto fielding where AI controls my players same as for its own???
-
Excellent video lots of great news!! Ty SDS!!!

Don’t let this distract you from the fact this game still doesn’t have collision detection.

You keep posting all over forums about collision detection and how game still doesnt have it. Can you go more into detail as to what you want this feature to bring? Because i see what some might consider a form of collision detection in the video today.

Every year you see a few collisions in the field going for a fly ball right? I just want it to be a possibility that’s all. I don’t like seeing players go through each other. I think it would make the game feel more authentic. Agree or disagree?

Well i have never experienced a player going through another player in the 10 or 11 years i've been playing with that being said.
At some point i think it would be a cool aspect of game, but there are more pressing issues they need to work on b4 creating or piling on to other issues that are to me more priority.

Certainly are other issues, but this one is simple. I can’t believe you’ve never went for a fly ball and the computer does too, they sometimes step right through each other. It usually happens on the sky high fly outs.

Nope, animation i get is whichever one i am locked onto the other one throws both hands up and moves out of way. Sometimes closer than i like, but never gone through another player. But that doesn't mean it doesn't happen and definitely not calling you a liar, just saying i have not personally witnessed that.

You know what’s crazy, they had collisions like 15-20 years ago. I remember them when I was younger. Either ps1 or ps2, I can’t remember.

Don't think i started till it was on ps3 but i might've played last version on ps2.

Loved all the new additions to fielding this year, only thing I didn’t see you guys talk about was fielders having more of a sense of urgency. Honestly I think adding some kind of acceleration button would be cool to add. Or maybe a quick throw addition but if you do a quick throw it lessens the green window by a lot while throwing the ball. Maybe using R2 /RT as a urgent button while running and throwing but doing so will have an impact on throw accuracy. But everything else looks amazing , can’t wait for release, keep up good work SDS.

The baserunner is not even close to the bag in this video. In the game the base runner is near the bag when it happens.
